Locating a Track (Multi-AMS/

Auto Play/Memory Play/Blank

Skip)

You can locate the following/previous tracks within a range of 30 tracks (Multi-AMS: Automatic Music Sensor) or the beginning of a tape quickly (Auto Play). You can even locate a specific point anywhere on a tape (Memory Play) or automatically skip over blank spaces (Blank Skip).

Note on the number indication in the display

The number indication in the display shows the number of times you’ve pressed )(or 0). During the deck is fast- forwarding (or rewinding), the number decreases one by one to indicate the number of tracks until the track you want to locate.

You can change the track you want to locate even while the deck is in Multi-AMS operation

Press )(or 0).Notes•The Multi-AMS function may not work correctly if:—the blank space between tracks is less than 4 seconds long.—there is a passage of low frequencies or very low volume within a track.—the signal strength of the left and right channels are very different.

•Even if DIR MODE is set to a, the deck stops when the current side reaches the end during Multi-AMS operation.

•Do not turn on the Pitch Control function (see page 6) while using the Blank Skip function on deck A. If you do, the Blank Skip function may not work properly.

•Since the counter is not a digital clock, it will differ from the actual elapsed playback or recording time.
