3-4. A-B Looping
To store the LOOP points
…
Loop points can be stored when loop
points are not stored on the unit (A and
B key don’t light). If loop points are
already stored, erase these points first,
then store the loop points again.
…
Both loop start (A) and end (B) points
can set to within a track.
…
A-B looping can be performed when the
loop mode is set to “A-B” (preset 01).
When loop mode is set to “A-B”, the "S"
and “ALL” indicators in the LCD don’t
light.
1. Press the A key when playing or pausing. The A
key will light and the B key will start flashing.
2. Press the B key when playing or pausing.
LOOP, A, and B keys will light. If the loop B
point is set when the unit is playing, the CDX-
1700 starts loop playback seamlessly. If the
loop B point is set when the unit is paused, the
CDX-1700 goes to the loop start point then
pauses. At this time the
indicator in the
LCD lights.
Disengage loop play
When loop play is engaged, pressing the LOOP
key disengages loop play. In this case, the unit
continues playback and LOOP light goes off, but
the loop points are not erased.
When loop play is engaged, locating to the out
point of a loop section disengages loop play (i.e.
pressing the CUE key, etc…). The LOOP key goes
off, but the loop points are not erased.
NOTE
Re-looping
When loop play is disengaged and loop points are
already stored, pressing the LOOP key starts re-
loop playback and the LOOP key lights.
Erasing the LOOP points
Pressing the A and B key at the same time erases
the loop points. At this time, the A and B keys go
off.
If the tray is opened, your loop points are erased.
Changing the LOOP end point (B point)
Pressing the B key when the loop is playing
changes the loop end point.
Pressing and holding the SHIFT key then pressing
the B key edits the B point using the Jog wheel.
Pressing the B key overwrites the new B point and
exits the edit mode.
…
The Loop B point can be moved before
the current B point only.
