    Holding the jog and moving the red needle marker within each area will produce one predefined scratch pattern.
    The scratch sound produced will not match your movements on the jog. As long as you keep moving the red needle marker, the scratch pattern will repeat itself. Depending on the "jogCutterJumpToCue" option, the track may or may not jump back to the last cue-point set every time the scratch pattern repeats itself.
