A-B: Press once to establish a beginning point (point A) for an end-
less playback loop. The display will flash the letter B to indicate
that it is ready to accept your designated ending point (point B).
Once this has been done, the Nº31.5 will repeat the segment of
the disc between points A and B until you press A-B or stop.
(Note that A must precede B on the disc.) Directly accessing a
point beyond the end of your A-B loop (next, direct time, or
direct track) will cancel the repeat A-B function and return the
Nº31.5 to play at your selected point.
repeat: Press once to enter repeat disc mode (repeating the entire
disc, or an entire playlist if one is entered). This action will illu-
minate the repeat disc LED. Press a second time to enter the re-
peat track
mode (repeating a single track ad nauseam). A third
press will cycle you back to normal operation, as will pressing
stop.
(–) track –: When pressed, this will take you to the beginning of the
previous track. Also used to add a track to a playlist when creat-
ing a custom program. (See Introduction to Programming.)
3 NUMERIC KEYPAD
The numbers 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 may be used to directly access in-
dividual track numbers of discs played by the Nº31.5. For example, to go
directly to track 13, press 1 followed by 3, and then press play. You do not
have to add a 0 before a single-digit track number: 7, followed by play, will
take you directly to track number 7. (In fact, if the Nº31.5 is already in play,
simply pressing the number button will be sufficient.)
The Nº31.5 displays a certain amount of intelligence with respect to direct
track access. If the first number entered identifies a particular track unam-
biguously (such as 2 on a 12-track disc), the Nº31.5 is “smart” enough to im-
mediately move to that track. If the first number entered could be the first
of two digits (such as 1 on a 12-track disc), the Nº31.5 will wait for a mo-
ment to determine whether you wish to enter a second number. If not, it
will then go to the single-digit track you selected.
If you request a non-existent track (pressing 2, 1 on a 12-track disc, for ex-
ample), the Nº31.5 will display NO TRACK XX (where XX is the track you
requested that does not exist) and resume play.
Selecting a particular track does not affect the operating mode. That is to
say, pressing 7 while in play begins playing track 7; pressing 4 while in
pause leaves you paused at the beginning of track 4. Similarly, using direct
track access during the playing of a program will temporarily override the
program; pressing stop will return you to your original programmed playlist
as though nothing had ever happened.
Random Play Incidentally, if you press 0 followed by play, the Nº31.5 will enter a
random play mode in which the order of the current disc’s playlist is
scrambled, and then played. The first character of the display (that shows a
P when playing a playlist) will show R to indicate random play. Moreover,
placing the Nº31.5 into random play mode while the disc repeat function
is engaged will cause it to play the various tracks on the disc randomly in-
definitely (until you stop it). This can be a great way to provide back-
ground music during a dinner party, for example.
