Tape Advance

Rewinds to the beginning of the track currently being listened to (or fast forwards to the beginning of the next track), continuing tape playback.

Rewinding tape to the beginning of current track:

Press the 4 button, and the tape will rewind to the beginning of the current track and automatically start playing again.

To advance to the beginning of the next track:

Press the ¢ button, and the tape will advance to the beginning of the next track and automatically start playing again.

NOTE

Tape advance "knows" where a track begins by detecting the blank space preceding it (the space between tracks). However, when the blank space lasts for less than four seconds or contains noise, this function may not operate correctly. Furthermore, sections that are recorded at low levels may trigger the function if they last for four seconds or more.
