Looping Features
Topics 22 – 25 cover the
Playmate Guitarist's looping
features. These work together
to allow you to define a section
of CD audio that you would
like to repeat indefinitely. The
Playmate Guitarist makes
looping easy: simply tell it the
locations within the track at
which you want the loop to
begin and end, enable the loop,
and then play along.
See "Creating a Loop" further
down for more information.

Loop Start and jumping to the
Loop Start. To set the Loop Start,

press START. To jump to the

When you first insert a CD, the
Loop Start is automatically set to
the beginning of the first track
(0:00:00).

serves two functions: setting the
Loop End point and jumping to
the Loop End point. To set the
Loop End, hold down the SET
button and press END. To jump
to the Loop Start, just press
