The MR-8 offers special play modes including
Auto play, Auto return and Loop playback.
• Selecting a play mode
1. While the recorder is stopped, pressing the [PLAY
MODE] key switches play modes among "Off",
"Auto Play", "Auto return" and "Loop".
The current mode is shown on the screen as follows
(when "Off" is selected, there is no indication).
• Auto play mode
In the Auto play mode, when executing the lo-
cate function, the recorder automatically starts
playback from the locate point.
• Auto return mode
The auto return mode is active when the LOCATE
A and LOCATE B points are set.
In the auto return mode, when reaching at the
LOCATE B point during playback, the recorder
automatically locates to the LOCATE A point and
stops.
• Loop mode
As with the auto return mode, the loop mode is
active when the LOCATE A and LOCATE B points
are set. In the loop mode, when reaching at the
LOCATE B point during playback, the recorder
automatically locates to the LOCATE A point and
starts playback. The recorder repeats this behav-
ior until you stops the recorder.
You may find it very convenience to use the loop
function together with the auto punch in/out
function (see the next page).
