FADER OPERATIONS

Cross fader start play and back cue play

When the CH-1 CD player is held in standby at the cue point, merely moving the cross fader lever from the right (CH-2) side to the left (CH-1) side will cause the CH-1 CD player to begin playback.

When the cross fader lever reaches the left (CH-1) side, CH-2 CD player performs back cue (returns to its cue point). Likewise, when the CH-2 CD player is in standby at its cue point, moving the cross fader lever from the left (CH-1) side to the right (CH-2) side causes CH-2 CD player to begin playback. When the cross fader lever reaches the right (CH-2) side, CH-1 CD player performs back cue.

*Back cue is performed even if the input selector switch is not set to CD.
