Resume Playback

If the Resume Playback mode is on, playback will begin from the location at which playback was last stopped (the “resume point”).

The Resume point will be erased when you perform the following operations.

Remove the CompactFlash card.

Switch the play area.

Switch the play mode.

Change the contents of the CompactFlash card (by recording, editing, deleting, etc.).

Use the menu to turn the Resume function on/off (for details on menu operations, refer to “Operations in the menu screens” on page 16).

1Press the MENU key to access the main menu list screen.

2 Select the PLAY menu.

3 Highlight the PREFERENCE item.

4Press the front panel ˚ key (or the remote’s CURSOR ¥ key) to proceed to the PLAY PREF-

ERENCE screen.

5 Select RESUME.

6Turn the MULTI JOG dial (or use the remote’s CURSOR § , ¶ keys) to turn the setting ON/OFF.

7When you’ve finished making settings, press the front panel TIME (ESC) key (or the remote’s CLR/ ESC key) to return to the home screen.

NOTE

This setting is remembered even when the power is turned off.

If no playable track exists (e.g., if not even one track has been registered in program mode), play- back will stop.

If the resume point does not exist (i.e., if the time registered as the resume point does not exist), the beginning of the track in the play area will be the resume point.

Flash Start function

The Flash Start function lets you instantly start playback of a track you’ve registered.

The beginning of up to twenty tracks can be pre-loaded into memory, so that playback can be triggered instantly from a PS/2 keyboard connected to the front panel, or from an external device connected to the SS-R1’s parallel con- nector.

1Specify the play area (see “Play area” on page 21).

Specify the play area as the play list or folder that contains the tracks you want to flash-start. Make sure that there are no more than twenty tracks.

2Set the play mode to CONTINUE or PROGRAM (see “Playback Modes” on page 24).

NOTE

You can’t use Flash Load if the play mode is set to

RANDOM.

3While stopped, press the remote’s FLASH LOAD key.

The SS-R1 will successively read the beginning of each track in the play area.

The tracks will be read in the order of playback. In other words if the play mode is CONTINUE, the tracks

will be read consecutively, starting with the first. If the play mode is PROGRAM, the tracks will be read in the order of the program.

While the tracks are being read, the lower right of the home screen will indicate FLASH blinking.

NOTE

If you press the FLASH LOAD key when the play mode is RANDOM, the display will indicate CAN,T SELECT, and the data will not be loaded.

If you press the FLASH LOAD key when the play mode is SINGLE, the tracks in the play area will be read successively in the same way as for the CONTINUE setting.

If twenty-one or more tracks are registered, data for the first twenty tracks from the beginning will be loaded.

When the data has been loaded, the lower right of the home screen will indicate FLASH.
