...and the ENTER light flashes. S is the Start point of the loop, and L is the loop
Length in samples. Initially, S is set to the beginning of the Voice (approximately
000000) and L equals the length of the sample.
3. Remember -- L sets the Length, not the end point, of the loop. Example:
Consider the loop in Fig. VDEF- 5. When S moves, the loop end point (as
determined by the loop Length) moves in tandem with S.
Fig. VDEF– 5
Hint: If the loop Length is at maximum (as occurs when you first call up a Voice
for looping), you cannot set a new S point since that would force the loop to “run
out of sample” (see Fig. VDEF- 6). Shorten the Length before moving the S
point.

Same as Fig VDEF- 5, except
that START has moved far
enough to place the end point
beyond the end of the sample.
