functions. The SHUTTLE (outer dial) lets you fast forward or rewind
through measures in a song sequence.
DATA/CURSOR BUTTON - The DATA/CURSOR button status determines

used primarily for entering data. When switched on (red light indicator),
spinning the JOG will move the cursor.
CURSOR CONTROL & INC/DEC BUTTONS - The arrow CURSOR-UP,
-DOWN, -LEFT and -RIGHT buttons let you move the cursor in these respec-
tive directions one step at a time. INC lets you enter data one increment with
each press of the button, while DEC lets you enter data one decrement with
each press of the button. The INC/DEC buttons are also used to confirm
execution of or abort an operation after pressing ENTER.
