Prompt Repeat Function

The “Prompt Repeat” function is a repeating
reminder of the “Key Prompt” that is generated
when the “Guide” mode is on. This is helpful if
you happen to miss the original “Key Prompt”
The “Prompt Repeat” function will repeat until
that key is played (see note). “Prompt Repeat” is
turned on automatically whenever the “Guide”
mode is engaged and “Prompt Repeat” function is
set to AUTO (default).

Note:

The “Prompt Repeat” function repeats

prompting the same key for about five

minutes. If the cue key is not played during

that time, “Prompt Repeat” is automatically

turned off, leaving the cue key shown in the

display only.

To turn on “Prompt Repeat” again, simply

play the cue key.

If you would prefer to turn off “Prompt Repeat”
for guided notes and use the screen prompt
exclusively, you will have to turn this feature
“off” manually as follows.
