Auto cueing

Auto cueing is used to automatically specify the cueing point
(see p. 13) to be used before sound actually begins to play when
inserting a disc or when performing track searching.
¶ Turning auto cueing on and off
Pressing the TIME MODE/AUTO CUE button and holding it
down for a second or more causes auto cueing to be
alternately turned on and off.
When auto cueing is on, the auto cueing indicator (A. CUE)
will be lit up.
¶ Auto cueing is automatically turned on when the power to
the CMX-5000 is first turned on.

Starting playback

1. Insert a disc into Player A or Player B.
2. If auto cueing is on, press the PLAY/PAUSE button
(3/8).
¶ Wait for the CUE button indicator to light up before
pressing the button. The silent portion at the beginning of
the displayed track will be skipped and playback will begin
instantaneously from the first bars of the track.
Once the first track has been played, the player will
automatically search for the beginning of the next track to be
played. The cueing indicator (CUE) will light up, the PLAY/
PAUSE button indicator will flash, and the player will then wait
for the PLAY/PAUSE button (3/8) to be pressed before
beginning playback of the next track.
3. If auto cueing is off, playback will begin automati-
cally from the first track.
¶ When auto cueing is off, playback will continue after the
first track has been played, with all subsequent tracks
being played in sequence.
¶ When playback of the final track is complete, playback will
automatically come to an end.

Stopping playback

During playback, press the PLAY/PAUSE button (3/
8) or if a cue point has been specified press the CUE
button to back-cue before pressing the EJECT button
(0) to eject the disc.
¶ Playback will stop and the disc will be ejected.
¶ Note that the CMX-5000 does not come with a stop button.
* Pressing the EJECT button during playback has no effect.

Pausing playback

To pause playback, press the PLAY/PAUSE button
(3/8).
¶ The PLAY/PAUSE button indicator and cueing indicator (CUE)
will flash and playback will pause.
¶ Pressing the PLAY/PAUSE button again will then cause the
button indicator to light up and for playback to be resumed.
¶ Muted sound will continue to be output when in pause mode.
To eliminate all sound, lower the audio mixer output level.
¶ If no operator whatsoever is performed for 80 minutes or
more after pausing playback, the rotation of the disc will be
automatically brought to a halt. Pressing the PLAY/PAUSE
button at this time will then cause playback to be resumed.

Using the monitor switch buttons

The player on the side of the button which has been pressed will
be selected, and the button which has been pressed will light up
to indicate the selected player. Pressing the button again will
cause the button to be unlit. Note that both players are selected
by default at power-on time, thus resulting in mixed sound being
output through both Player A and Player B.
