7. Press the ENTER button once again.
The display will indicate the first step (A), and the MD4S will be in Cue List playback-pause

When all steps have finished playing back, cue list playback will be canceled, and the MD4S
will stop. If you wish to stop cue list playback while it is in progress, press the STOP button. If
you press the PAUSE button to temporarily halt cue list playback, you can rotate the DATA
dial to select a different step, and then resume cue list playback.

is selected, you will advance to the next step. If you rotate the CURSOR shuttle toward the
left when the Step parameter is selected, you will return to the previous step.
