User Manual

While a track or Sample is loaded into the Preview Player, holding the PREVIEW button and
turning the BROWSE encoder serves as seek control. You can load this track or Sample as usu-
al, depending on whether you are using Quick Loading (see above) or Browse mode (see be-
low).
Pushing the PREVIEW button while an item is loaded into the Preview Player unloads it from
the Preview Player.
For more info on the Preview Player, see section ↑6.7.1, Browsing Tracks and Samples.

The SNAP button allows you to activate/deactivate the Snap mode. With Snap active, every
Cue Point that you set will snap to the closest beat (see the tutorials in section ↑4.2, Mixing In

The Snap option affects both Cue Points and Loops.
When the Snap option is active, both the button and the indicator light up.
