6 – Various Playback Functions
This chapter explains the various playback functions of
the unit.
Auto-cue function
If the auto-cue function is on and you select a track to
play, any silence at the beginning of the track will be
skipped, and the player will pause at the instant when a
sound signal is first detected. This means that sound can
be heard immediately when playback starts.
NOTE
When the flash start function is used for playback, the
•
auto-cue function is disabled.
If the auto-cue function is on and a track is selected
•
during playback, that track will play back from the
instant that sound begins in the selected track. If the
auto-cue function is on and a track is selected when
paused, the player will pause at the instant that sound
begins in the selected track.
Moreover, you can set the audio signal detection
threshold level (auto-cue level) that is used by the auto-
cue function. Any signal higher than the set auto cue level
will be recognized as "sound, " and any signal lower than
this level will be treated as "silence. "
The following procedure describes how to use the menu
to turn the auto-cue function on/off and adjust the auto-
cue level setting. (For details about using the menu
screen, refer to the "Menu operation basics" on page 19.)

If the auto-ready function is on, after a track has finished
playing, playback will pause at the beginning of the next
