Locating the Beginning of a Song

— Music Scan

You can use Music Scan to locate the beginning of a song.
Music Scan searches for blank portions that usually separate
recorded songs, then plays the next song.
To find the beginning of the current song
During play, press 1 or ¡ (4 PREV or
¢ NEXT on the remote control) in the
opposite direction to the tape play.
The tape direction indicator of the opposite
direction to the tape play starts flashing
slowly.
Searching stops automatically at the beginning of the current
song, and the current song starts automatically.
To find the beginning of the next song
During play, press 1 or ¡ (4 PREV
or ¢ NEXT on the remote control) in
the same direction as the tape play.
The tape direction indicator of the same
direction as the tape play starts flashing
slowly and quickly alternately.
Searching stops automatically at the beginning of the next
song, and the next song starts automatically.
Music Scan works by detecting a 4-second long blank
between each song, so it will not work well in the
following cases
• No blank at the beginning of a song.
• Noise (often caused by much use or poor quality dubbing) which
fills the blank.
• Long, very soft passages or pauses in a song.
The use of the C-120 or thinner tape is not
recommended, since characteristic deterioration
may occur and this tape easily jams in the pinch-
rollers and the capstans.
