Advanced Playback Operations

Locating a Track (AMS/Auto Play/
Memory Play)

You can locate the following/previous tracks (AMS:
Automatic Music Sensor) or the beginning of a tape
quickly. You can even locate a specific point anywhere
on a tape.

Notes

• The AMS function may not work correctly if:

— the blank space between tracks is less than 4 seconds long.

— the signal strength of the left and right channels are very

different.

— there is a passage of low frequencies or very low volume

within a track.

• Since the counter is not a digital clock, it will differ from the

actual elapsed playback or recording time.
