Audio Tracks that contain data must be prepared before recording or playback. Preparing Audio
Tracks involves cueing up the first AudioSample for each Audio Track.
Preparing the Audio Tracks for recording and playback:
If the sequencer is stopped, selecting a sequence or song that has data recorded on its Audio
Tracks will not automatically prepare the Audio Tracks for playback. This happens because
preparing the Audio Tracks for playback requires some set-up time to cue up the first
AudioSample for each Audio Track. The SEQ indicator light
wilI
flash on all Seq*Song mode
screens (indicating that the current Sequence/Song has data recorded on its Audio Tracks) until
the Audio Tracks are prepared.
