Rewind and Fast Forward commands. If you use
them while the Song is in play, they make it scroll
back or forward.
When pressed once, these buttons move the Song
to the previous or following measure. When kept
pressed, they make the Song scrolling continu-
ously, until you release them.
In Sequencer mode, if you set a Locate Measure
other than 1, the Song goes back up to that mea-
sure (see “Locate measure” on page 175).

other than 1, the Song Position goes back to that
measure (see “Locate measure” on page 175).

Position.

same time.

select any other Style element (Fill, Intro, Variation…) to exit the
loop.

Intro 1 plays a short sequence with different chords, while
Intro 2 plays on the latest recognized chord. Intro 3 is usually a one-
