Loop playback
Use this function to loop playback of any section of
an audio CD between set IN and OUT points.
The following procedure explains how to set and play
a loop section with starting (IN) and ending (OUT)
points.
Canceling Hot Cue points
Cancel a Hot Cue point by pressing its HOT CUE/
CLEAR key while holding down the SHIFT key.
Opening the CD cover also cancels the Hot Cue
points.
Flash Start
Use the HOT CUE keys for instant playback from
their cue points when the Flash Start function is on.
Turn the Flash Start function on and off with the
Setup menu FLASH item (the default setting is on).
When Flash Start is on, the FLS indicator appears on
the display.
Setting the IN point
Press the IN key while the CD is playing or paused.
The IN key will light up and the OUT key will flash.
Press the OUT key while the CD is playing or
paused. The IN, OUT and RE-LOOP/EXIT keys will
all light up.
Loop playback will start immediately if the OUT
point is set while the CD is playing.
Setting the OUT point while the CD is paused moves
the pause position to the IN point. Push the PLAY/
PAUSE key to begin loop playback.
During loop playback, as soon as the OUT point
is reached, playback restarts instantly from the IN
point.
NOTE
The OUT point can only be set at a time following
the IN point.
The OUT point can be set to create a loop that
spans more than one track.
Setting the OUT point
Press the RE-LOOP/EXIT key during loop playback
to exit the loop mode and resume normal playback.
The key's light will turn off, but the loop IN and
OUT points will not be cancelled.
Using a SKIP, CUE or HOT CUE key to set the cur-
rent location outside the looped section will also exit
loop playback mode. The RE-LOOP/EXIT key light
will turn off, but the loop points will not be canceled.
Canceling loop playback
When Flash Start is off, you can jump to a Hot Cue
point and pause playback by pressing a HOT CUE
key. If you press and hold down that HOT CUE key
again, playback continues from that HOT Cue point
until you release the key.
When you release the HOT CUE key, playback paus-
es and the playback position is reset at the Hot Cue
point. Hot Cue points can be confirmed using this
function.
To resume normal playback, press the PLAY/PAUSE
key during playback while holding down a HOT CUE
key.
