BASIC OPERATIONS
Selecting the playback point
Selecting a track
Tracks can be selected (skipped) using the
TRACK(Â/¯) key.
Âkey:
Pressing this key when the elapsed time of a track is one
second or more, the CD player returns to the start of that
track. When the elapsed time is less than one second, the
CD player skips to the start of the previous track.
¯ key:
The CD player skips to the start of the next track. Pressing
this key again makes the CD player skip to the start of the
following track.
• In the program playback mode, the CD player skips to
the previous and next tracks according to the program
order.
• When the Âkey is pressed at the start of track 1, the
CD player skips to the start of the final track, and when
the >>I key is pressed at the final track, the CD player
skips to the start of the first track.
• When the  or ¯ key is pressed while disc
operations are stopped, the CD player skips to the start
of the first track on the disc.
CD player operation after track selection
Operation of the CD player after a track is selected by the
TRACK key differs according to the operating state of the
CD player when this key is pressed, the ON/OFF state of
the auto cue function, and the auto cue up setting. (→ page
20 “Auto Cue Function”)
When the auto cue function is ON:
When the auto cue function is ON, the CD player basically
stands by according to the auto cue up setting.
When the auto cue function is OFF:
The CD player enters the same state as that before the
TRACK key is pressed. Note, however, that the CD player
enters the monitor playback mode when a track has been
selected while disc operations were stopped or while the
tray was open.
Selecting the index
When the INDEX key is pressed to set to the index search
mode (INDEX indicator is lit), the index can be selected
(skipped) by using the TRACK key.
The operation mode after index selection conforms to
operation after track selection. The auto cue function also is
active. (The CD player stands by at the audio start point of
the index.)
Searching for an intermediate point in a
tune
You can search for cues in a tune by holding down the
SEARCH (∆/˚) key during monitor playback or in the
monitor PAUSE mode.
When the failsafe function is OFF, cue searches are also
possible in the online READY mode. (→ page 23 “Failsafe
Function”)
[
NOTE]
• During a cue search, the playback output level
automatically drops by about 12 dB.
Holding down the SEARCH key during monitor playback
performs a cue search at about ten times the regular speed.
Holding down the SEARCH key in the monitor PAUSE mode
gradually increases the search speed.
