As found on most multitrack recording units, DAW systems, or MIDI sequencing software, a locate point is a “pointer in time” marked or saved at a specific time in your recording or sequence so that you can move to that point in the session quickly. This makes navigating to specific parts of your song a great deal easier. For example, you could set locate points for the beginning of each chorus so that you could jump to the different parts of the song very quickly. In some systems much more information can be stored as part of locate points, including screen attributes such as zoom settings, etc.
