Chapter 3 Song Playback and Practice Functions

Setting Markers for Repeated Practice (Marker)

By setting markers at points in a song that you want to practice repeatedly, you can then easily go to and repeat play back of the selected measures.

Placing a Marker within a Song

You can place two separate markers (Marker A and Marker B) in one song. These markers are placed at the beginning of a measure to make the beginning and end of a section of music. Placing markers is a handy way to start playback at the same place as many times as you like. You can add markers or move to a marker even while playback is in progress.

Access the Marker screen

First, select the song in which you’ll set the markers (p. 69).

1. Press the [Menu] button.

Touch to switch the screens.

2. Touch <Marker>.

The Marker screen appears.

Placing Markers

3. Go to the measure where you want to set a marker using the [ (Bwd)]

and [ (Fwd)] buttons.

4. Touch <—> for Marker A.

Marker A is placed at the beginning of the measure you selected.

“—” on the screen will change to the number of the measure where you placed the marker.

5. In the same way, touch the Marker B <—> to set Marker B.

It is not possible to assign marker B to the same location or a measure before marker A.

Markers can also be assigned in units of beats rather than measures. Refer to “Placing a Marker in the Middle of a Measure” (p. 150).
