Practicing Phrases (PHRASE TRAINER)
 
The BR-800 provides a Phrase Trainer function, which lets 
you slow down the playback speed (Time Stretch) or 
minimize a vocal or guitar solo that’s localized at the center 
of the sound field (Center Cancel), so you can conveniently 
practice your instrument by playing along with a recording.
