Grouping Tracks (Music Clip) - Sony MHC-W55 Operating Instructions Manual

Grouping Tracks
(music clip)
The music clip function is an easy way to
create up to 3 arbitrary groups of tracks
from your CDs. For example, you could
store tracks for the morning in CLIP A,
tracks to play for your friends in CLIP B,
and tracks for relaxing in CLIP C.
Once you store one or more tracks in a
music clip(s), the player recalls those tracks
whenever you play the respective disc
