Playing MDs
Changing Playback Speed
(Variable Speed Play)
You can adjust the play time by changing the speed of
play.
You can adjust the speed of a track in the normal range of
±12.5%. You can play late at up to 12.5% of normal speed
(in this case, a pitch is low) and fast at up to 12.5% of
normal speed (in this case, a pitch is high).
Note
MDLP-recorded tracks cannot be played faster than
normal speed. When you play an MD containing the
MDLP-recorded tracks, adjustment of the speed
automatically (0 to _12.5%) is made.
If you play an MD containing MDLP-recorded tracks when
fast speed is set, the speed becomes 0% automatically.
