Specifying a track number

You can use the remote’s numeric keys (0–9) to directly specify the number of the track you want to play.

1Use the remote’s numeric keys (0–9) to enter a track number (maximum of three digits).

Enter the track number starting with the highest digit.

•To specify track 1

Press the 1 key once.

•To specify track 12

Press the 1 key ∑2 key.

•To specify track 103

Press the 1 key ∑0 key ∑3 key.

2Press the PLAY key.

The selected track will begin playing.

Alternatively, you can use this procedure but press the remote’s READY key instead of the PLAY key to pause at the beginning of the selected track.

NOTE

•As an alternative to press the PLAY key, you can use the MULTI JOG dial to playback the file select- ed (or the remote’s ENTER key).

•You can’t use the numeric keys to specify the track while in program or random mode.

Fast-forward/rewind search

You can rapidly search forward or backward while listening to the audio of a track.

1 Play or pause the desired track.2Hold down the ˚ or ∆ key.

Fast-forward or rewind search will begin.

3To stop searching, release the key you were hold- ing.

You will return to the state (either playing or paused) in which you were prior to searching.

Time search

While the unit is stopped, playing, or paused, you can locate to a specified time in the specified track.

NOTE

You can’t use time search when the play mode is program mode or random mode.

1Use the remote’s numeric keys (0–9) to enter nine digits in the following order.

•Track number: three digits

•Elapsed time from the beginning of the track

(XXhours / XXminutes / XXseconds): two digits each

For example if you want to locate to 1 minute 30 seconds from the beginning of track 2, you would press the keys in the following order.

0 ∑0 ∑2 ∑0 ∑0 ∑0 ∑1 ∑3 ∑0

When you finish entering the nine digits, the SS-R1 will automatically locate to the specified position.

If the unit is stopped or playing back prior to the locate operation, playback will begin after the locate operation. If the unit is paused prior to the locate operation, it will pause after the locate operation.

NOTE

If you specify a track number that does not exist in the current play area, or a time that does not exist in the track, the operation will be cancelled at that point.

Time searching from an incomplete entry

If you press the remote’s ENTER key (or the PLAY or READY key) before you finish entering all nine digits (to the seconds place), the unit will locate to the position you’ve specified so far. For example if you enter “0 ∑0 ∑2 ∑ 0 ∑0 ∑1 ∑2” and press the ENTER key, the recorder will locate to a position 12 minutes from the beginning of track 2.

After the locate operation, the unit will either play or pause, depending on the status prior to pressing the ENTER key. If you press the PLAY key, playback will begin. If you press the READY key, the recorder will pause.

NOTE

•This method allows you to omit the leading 0 of the last place you enter (track, hour , minute), even the leading 00 of the track number. For example if you want to locate to minute 2 of track 2, press “0 ∑ 0 ∑ 2 ∑ 0 ∑ 0 ∑ 2” and press the ENTER key.

•If you enter only the track number and press the ENTER key (or the PLAY key or READY key), the result is the same as “Specifying the track number” (page 23).
