Selecting and Playing Songs
54
The convenient A-B Repeat function is an ideal aid for practicing and learning. It
allows you to specify a phrase of a song (between point A and point B) and repeat
it — while you play or practice along with it.
1
While playing a song, set point A (the start point).
During playback, press the [A-B REPEAT] button once, at the beginning
point to be repeated.
2
Set point B (the end point).
As the song continues playing, press the [A-B REPEAT] button once again,
at the ending point to be repeated. The selected phrase repeats indefinitely
until stopped.
3
Pause or stop playback as needed.
Use the [PAUSE] button or [START/STOP] button. Stopping playback does
not cancel the set A/B points or the A-B Repeat function.
4
Turn off the A-B Repeat function.
Press the [A-B REPEAT] button.

• The A and B points can only be
specified at the beginning of a
measure (beat 1), and not at any
point in the middle of a measure.
• To set the A point to the begin-
ning of a song, press the [A-B
REPEAT] button before starting
playback.
• If you’re repeat practicing a par-
ticularly difficult section, try slow-
ing down the Tempo to an
appropriate speed to make it eas-
ier to play and master the part.
You may also want to slow down
the Tempo while setting the A
and B points; this makes it easier
to accurately set the points.
• You can also set the A-B Repeat
function when the song is
stopped. Simply use the [REW
r
] and [FF
f
] buttons to select
the desired measures, pressing
the [A-B REPEAT] button for
each point, then start playback.
