repeatedly or play a single track once and stop.
With this function, you can continuously repeat the
playback of a selection that you make (loop playback).

set as the OUT point, and loop playback begins
between the IN and OUT points.

shown by the and icons that appear below the
playback position display bar in the lower part of the
Home Screen. During loop playback the indicator
also appears.
To stop loop playback, press either the
LOOP key or
the IN/OUT key.

playback of the set interval begins again.
