Repeating a
specific passage
To repeat (continuously) a specific phrase or passage on a CD, press
repeat A-B
at the beginning of the passage you would like to repeat. At the end of the pas-
sage, press
repeat A-B
again. The passage you selected will repeat continuously.
While the
repeat A-B
function is active,
A
then
B
will appear preceding the track
number on the display. To return to normal play without interruption, press the
repeat A-B
button again.
While in the repeat A-B mode, the following keys behave as outlined below:
play
will restart play at point A (much as doing so normally re-
turns you to the beginning of the current track).
search reverse
will “rewind” the disc back, beginning play when
you release the button. This allows you to review the lead-in to
your A-B section, as when learning a piece of music by ear.
search forward
will “fast forward” the music as far as the “B” point,
stopping there for easy access to the end of your A-B loop.
stop
will leave the
repeat A-B
mode and enter
stop
.
previous
will move you to the previous track (or index if in index
mode) whether or not it lies within the A-B loop.
next
will move you to the next track (or index if in index mode).
If this location lies beyond the defined A–B loop, the Nº31.5 will
leave
repeat A–B
mode, reverting to normal play.
direct track
access will override your A-B loop if you go beyond
the defined A–B loop.
direct time
access will also override your A-B loop if you go be-
yond the defined A–B loop.
Inverting playback polarity
If your Nº31.5 is linked to a compatible Mark Levinson digital processor via the
communication ports
, you may change the playback polarity. (See Setting Op-
tions.)
After loading a CD, press the
polarity invert
button on the digital processor’s front
panel, or press
d/a polarity
on the Nº31.5’s Remote Control, then press
play
. The
CD will play with inverted polarity.
If you want this CD to always play with inverted polarity, press
program save
before pressing
play
. The display will show
POLARITY PRG
, a small
P
will appear
preceding the track number on the display, and inverted polarity will be saved as
a “program” for that CD. (See Programming.)
Stopping play
To stop play before the end of the CD, press
Stop
. The display will show the total
number of tracks and their total playing time.
You may also stop play by pressing
Lid Open/Close
. In this case, play will stop
and the Lid will open.
