USING THE LOOPING FEATURES

These feature are for seamlessly looping certain areas of the CD. A loop is any area of a CD that you choose to repeat with no breaks.

There are 3 buttons associated with the loop feature.

LOOP IN

The “LOOP IN” is where you wish for the loop to actually start. You will notice the “LOOP IN” LED will be lit every time you put in a new CD and select a new track. This means that the initial “CUE” point of the CD is also the default “LOOP IN” point. If you wish to set a new “LOOP IN” point, just press the “LOOP IN” button while the CD is playing when it reaches the desired point. By default this also becomes the new “CUE” point.

NOTE: The CD Player will always remember a new set point as the “LOOP IN” point until you actually set a new “LOOP IN” point, erase the loop, or put in a new CD. If you set a “LOOP IN” point and then do a track search prior to the point position, thus setting a new auto-cue point, the LOOP IN LED will turn off. This indicates that the CD player has stored a “LOOP IN” point but the point is not accessible until the CD player plays through the “LOOP IN” point. The ”CUE” button will return you to the start position until you play through the “LOOP IN” point. Then it will return to “LOOP IN”

LOOP OUT

The “LOOP OUT” determines the end point for a loop. The first time you press this button while a CD is in play mode, the “LOOP OUT” LED will turn on and flash while the song automatically returns to the “LOOP IN” point with no breaks and continues to play. When the song reaches the “LOOP OUT” point again it returns to the “LOOP IN” point and continues to repeat this action. You will notice the “LOOP IN” LED will also be flashing during loop action. To release or end the LOOP press the “LOOP OUT” button a second time and play will continue forward when the song passes the previously set “LOOP OUT” point. The “LOOP OUT” and “LOOP IN” LEDs will also be lit solid indicating that these “LOOP” points are now in memory for “RELOOP” purposes.

Note: The “LOOP OUT” point will be erased if “LOOP IN” is pressed or a new “CUE” point is set after the “LOOP OUT” point. This is important because without this point “RELOOP” will not be possible.
