Locating to the zero location of the counter
When the song is stopped or playing, you can press
the [RTZ] key to locate to the zero location of the
counter (in the case of measure display, this will be
the beginning of the first measure).
The point to which the [RTZ] key will locate will
depend on the counter display unit (time, time code,
measures) or display method (absolute time or relative
time), as shown in the following table.
If measure display (MEASURE) is selected as the
counter display method, the absolute time zero loca-
tion will always be the start point. For this reason,
pressing the [RTZ] key will always return to the start
point (0001.01.0000) location.
Tip!
The counter display method can be changed in the
DISPLAY area of the SONG screen Setting page
([SONG] key
→ [F2] key).
Setting the relative time zero
location
The relative time (REL) zero location can be set as fol-
lows.
1
Locate to the point that you want to spec-
ify as relative time zero.
Tip!
The relative time zero location can also be set while
the song is playing.
2
Hold down the [SET] key and press the
[RTZ] key.
The counter display will automatically switch to
relative time, and will be reset to relative time
zero (time display = 00:00:00.000/time code dis-
play = 00:00:00:00.00).
Tip!
• If you want to return the counter display to absolute
time (ABS), access the METER screen Meter 2 page,
move the cursor to the ABS button in the upper left
of the display, and press the [ENTER] key.
• The specified relative time zero location is saved on
the hard disk as part of the current song.
