You can store time information (time or bar/beat/clock) in
each memory key. The stored time information will be used
to locate a point in data in the recorder section, or as an
edit point to perform the Auto Punch In/Out, Copy & Paste,
Move & Paste, or Erase function.
This chapter describes how to store data in the memory
keys and edit the stored data.
Data stored in the memory keys is used in the following
operations:

<Note on storing the locate point>

Auto Return/Auto Repeat, make sure that IN points precede the
OUT points and START points precede the END points.
• You can store locate points for each Program. (You need to
select a Program first.)
• The data can be also saved or loaded even after the Song data is
saved or loaded.
• All locate points stored in the memory keys will be maintained
after you turn off the FD-4.
In addition to the memory keys, you can store data in the
LOCATE key in real-time. The LOCATE key always stores the
point most recently located by the FD-4. That is, data in the
LOCATE key is overwritten by new data each time the FD-4
locates a point. You can also edit the data in the LOCATE key.
Refer to the following pages for more information on how to edit
data.
Storing and editing the locate points to the
memory keys
Storing in real-time
You can store the locate point (in the ABS, MTC, or BAR/
BEAT/CLK Time Base) in real-time while the FD-4 is
playing.
• Select the desired Time Base using the TIME BASE SEL key
if you wish to use a Time Base other than ABS.
• The stored or edited locate points are used only in the currently-
selected Program.
1. Press the PLAY button to play back data.
2. When the point you wish to store is reached, press the
HOLD/> key.
The time value or bar/beat/clock value of the point is
captured. The FD-4 enters data edit mode.
3. Press the STORE key.
The STORE LED lights up.
4. Press the desired memory key.
The STORE LED turns off.
The captured time value (or bar/beat/clock value) is
stored in the memory key. After the data is stored, the
FD-4 displays the previous Time Base and continues
playback.
• You can omit Step 2 above to speed operation.
• If you set “BAR/BEAT Resolution mode” in SETUP mode to ON,
the FD-4 will round off the CLK value of the captured bar/beat/
clock value. That is, the locate point will be at the beginning of the
beat (00). Refer to page 92 for more information.
