7 – CD and MD Playback—End of disc/track warning
TASCAM MD-CD1
Owner’s Manual
31
End of disc/track warning
When nearing the end of a track or disc, a warning
indication is shown on the display.
The number of seconds before the track/disc end that
the warning is displayed can be set beforehand, so
that when playback reaches that point, the “EOM”
warning will begin flashing on the display.
To set the warning display time, use the “EOM
TRK?” or “EOM DISC” options on the PLAY sub-
menu of the MD and CD menus. Each can be set
between 1 and 99 seconds in 1-second increments, or
the warning display can be turned off.
Playback functions for CD only
The following playback functions are for CD only,
and are not available for MD playback.
Changing the key of playback
They key of the music can be changed during CD
playback. Please note that this feature does not oper-
ate with MP3 discs.

the Key Change function on.
The “KEY” indication lights up in the dis-

an “ON” indication, the key selected (in operation 1.

In this condition, when a CD is played back, the key of
the music is changed while the speed of the music
remains the same.

ting is retained.
When the Key Change function is on, even if the Pitch

the key of playback will remain fixed at the preset key.

tion can be turned on.)
