6: Playing the Preset Songs (continued)
HINT
You can hear the current song played with a different pattern by simply selecting the desired
pattern: press [PATTERN SELECT], use [–1] and [+1] or the number keys to select a pattern, then
press [EXIT].
4 Playback Stops Automatically
Playback will stop automatically at the end of the song. You can also stop playback at any time by pressing the [START/
STOP] key.
DETAIL
A footswitch connected to the rear-panel INPUT jack can be used to start and stop song
playback if the FOOT SW function is turned on (page 11).
To Continue Playback from the
Point at Which It Was Stopped
Each time you press the [START/STOP] key
while playback is stopped the song will begin
playing from the first beat of the first measure.
If you press the [START/STOP] key while holding
the [SHIFT] key, however, playback will continue from the point at which it was stopped.
Starting Playback from a Specific Measure Number
You can start song playback from a specific measure number as follows:
1 Specify the Starting Measure
Before starting playback, hold the [SHIFT] key
and use the [–1] and [+1] keys to select the measure
number from which you want playback to begin (the
measure number appears after “m” on the upper line
of the display). Don’t release the [SHIFT] key yet!
2 Start Playback
While still holding the [SHIFT] key, press the
[START/STOP] key to start playback.
DETAIL
When song playback is started in this way, the current measure number appears on the upper
display line instead of the usual song number and chord display. The current measure display can be
selected during playback by pressing either [–1] or [+1] while holding [SHIFT]. Press [EXIT] to
return to the normal song playback display. Please note, however, that the song will always start
from the first measure after a temporary pattern change has been made in order to avoid improper
playback due to differing time signatures.
Repeat Playback
The QR10 has a REPEAT function which causes the song being played to repeat continuously until stopped by pressing the
[START/STOP] key. To activate the REPEAT function:
