3. STARTING PLAYBACK - Figure 9
Insert an audio CD as described on page 18 (LOADING/EJECTING DISCS).
Pressing the PLAY/PAUSE BUTTON (28) with an audio CD loaded will imme-
diately start playback. The PLAY (42) indicator will glow as soon as playback
begins. The point at which playback starts (cue point) will automatically be
stored in the memory as the cue point. The unit will return to this cue point (the
point at which playback started) when the CUE BUTTON (14) is pressed.
4. PAUSING - Figure 9
This function pauses playback at the exact same point the PLAY/PAUSE BUT-
TON (13) was pressed. Pressing the PLAY/PAUSE BUTTON (13) will switch
between play and pause modes. When the unit is in pause mode the PAUSE
INDICATOR (39) in the VFD DISPLAY (2) will glow. The green PLAY/PAUSE but-
ton (13) LED will also begin to flash repeatedly.
5. STOPPING PLAYBACK - Figures 9 & 10
Stopping playback will not stop the drive mechanism, but merely pause or cue
the track, this functions allows the unit to begin play instantly. The drive mecha-
nism will only stop if a disc is ejected or the unit has gone in to sleep mode.
There are two ways to stop (pause) playback:
1) Press the PLAY/PAUSE BUTTON (13) during playback. This will pause play-
back at the exact same point the PLAY/PAUSE BUTTON (13) was pressed.
2) Press the CUE BUTTON (14) during playback. This will pause playback and
return the track to the last set cue point.
6. AUTO CUE - Figure 10
This function will automatically set a cue point to the first audio source when a
CD is inserted. The first set cue point will always be the beginning of track 1. If
a new track is selected before the PLAY BUTTON (13) is pressed, a new CUE
POINT will be set to reflect the new starting point.
7. FRAME SEARCH - Figure 11
This feature allows you to scroll through a track frame by frame, allowing you
to find and set a starting cue, sample, or loop point. To use the scroll function
you must first be in Pause Mode or Cue Mode. Once you are in Pause or Cue
mode, turn the JOG WHEEL (9) to scroll through the track (Figure 11). Turning
the wheel in a clockwise direction will advance the frame search and turning the
wheel in a counter-clockwise direction rewinds the frame search. When you use
the JOG WHEEL (9) the monitor (headphone level) function allows you to here
what you are scrolling through. Once you reach your desired starting point you
can set a cue (starting) point by pressing the PLAY/PAUSE BUTTON (13) as in
Figure 9. Pressing the CUE BUTTON (14) as in Figure 10 will now return you to
the point you just set.
