TASCAM CD-RW5000

3 - Playback operations

This section gives details of the basic operations you
can perform when using the CD-RW5000 to play
back CDs.

Playing back CDs on the CD-RW5000 is similar to
playing back CDs on any other CD player.

The CD-RW5000 can play back ordinary
pre-recorded commercial CDs, and CD-R discs, as
well as CD-RW discs recorded on the CD-RW5000.
These last discs may not be playable on other CD
players.

Also, note that unlike some other CD players, but in
common with other TASCAM devices, the

PLAY

key on the CD-RW5000 is used to restart playback
after the

PAUSE

key has been used to pause play-

back.

3.1 Display modes

The different display modes available when playing
back a CD are: track elapsed time (

TRACK TIME

)

with the level meters displayed, track remaining time
(

REMAIN TIME TRACK

), disc remaining time

(

TOTAL REMAIN TIME

), and track elapsed time

(

TRACK TIME

) without the level meters displayed.

Press the

DISPLAY

key (

[6]

or

[34]

) to cycle

between these modes.

3.2 Playing back a selected track

Use the number buttons on the remote control unit to
enter a track number. If the number of the track is
greater than nine, press the keys of the two digits in
order to enter the 2-digit number.

• If the CD-RW5000 is already playing, the playback

will jump to the start of the selected track.

• If the CD-RW5000 is in pause mode, the playback

position will be at the start of the selected track in
pause mode.

• If the CD-RW5000 is stopped, playback will start

from the start of the selected track.
