The AMS feature may not work properly when:

–The blank space between tracks is less than four seconds long.

–Different material is recorded on the left and right channels (e.g., karaoke tapes with the instrumental music and a singer’s voice, foreign language practice tapes, etc.).

–Very low-level signals or low-frequency signals such as a bass saxophone are continuously recorded on the tape.

–The system is placed too close to a TV. (Move the system away from the TV or turn off the TV.)
