Intro Check
This function can be used to search for a specific track by
playing the beginning of each track for 15 seconds.
Press the INTRO CHECK button.
The deck will fast-wind to the beginning of a track, play the first
15 seconds (approx.), and fast-wind to the beginning of the
next track, from which point the cycle starts again.
… If the play button of TAPE I is pressed during the Intro Check
operation, playback will resume.
… If the STOP button is not pressed, the Intro Check function is
released depending on the setting of the REV MODE switch.
Ä: Released when tape reaches the end.
Ë: Released when tape reaches the end of the
reverse side.
ä: Released after completing one full loop of
the tape from the initial side.
Blank Scan
This function is provided so that the deck will skip long blank
portions during playback.
1. During playback, press the BLANK SCAN button (the
indicator lights).
If a blank section of more than about 10 seconds is detected
during playback, the deck will enter the fast-forward mode
automatically. When the beginning of the next recorded
section is detected, playback will resume.
2. To release blank scan, press the BLANK SCAN button
again (the indicator goes off).
Notes:
… When the REV MODE switch is set to the Ë or ä
position, the tape will be fast-forwarded at the end of either
side of the tape after running the tape for 10 seconds
without any sound.
… To check if the tape is entirely blank, start blank scan at the
beginning of either side with the REV MODE switch set to
the
ä position.
… If there are sections of tape recorded at a low signal level,
because of fading out, etc., these sections may be detected
as blank and blank scan may start. In this case, the music
will be interrupted for about 10 seconds.
