Finding the beginning of a tune

Multi Music Scan (MMS) allows you to automatically start playback from the beginning of a specified tune. You can specify up to 9 tunes ahead of or before the current tune.

During playback

Specify the tune you want to locate (how many tunes ahead of or before the current tune).

Press ¢ to locate a tune ahead of the current tune on the cassette.

Press 4 to locate a tune before the current tune on the cassette.

Ex.: When you locate three tunes ahead of the current tune

Each time you press the buttons, the number changes up to ±9.

When the beginning of the specified tune is located, playback starts automatically.

Notes:

While locating a specified tune:

If the tape is rewound to its beginning, playback starts from the beginning of that side.

If the tape is fast-forwarded to the end, it is reversed and played from the beginning of the other side.

In the following cases, the Multi Music Scan function may not operate correctly:

Tapes with tunes having long pianissimo passages (very quiet parts) or non-recorded portions between tunes.

Tapes with short non-recorded sections.

Tapes with high level of noise or humming between tunes.

Tapes with tunes recorded at low recording levels.

Skipping the blank portions on the tape

You can skip blank portions between the tunes (Blank Skip).

When this function is turned on, the unit fast- forwards (skipping blank portions of 15 seconds or more), to the next tune and starts playback.

“CLOCK H,” “CLOCK M,” “LEVEL,” “B. SKIP,”

or “EXT IN” appears on the display.

3 Press + to select “ON.”

Now Blank Skip is activated.

To cancel Blank Skip, repeat the same procedure and select “OFF” in step 3 by pressing –.
