SKIP SEARCH AND MUSIC SEARCH (Functions of both deck I and deck
II)
(MUSIC SEARCH)
These functions allows you to select specific tracks in a different way
from random programmed playback.
(SKIP SEARCH)
This function is convenient when you wish to listen again to the cur-
rently playing track, or to the next track.
This function allows you to search for a specific track up to ten tracks
before or after the currently playing position.
To select a track after the currently playing track
,
press the operating
switch
"+
"
the number of times corresponding to the number of
tracks from the current position
.
To select an earlier track, press the
"-" operating switch.
To listen to the next track, press the"+
"
operating switch once
.
To
listen again to the currently playing track
,
press the
"
-
"
operating
switch once
.
NOTE:
•
If you press the
"+
"
operating switch more times than the
number of tracks actually remaining on the current tape
side,
the
search function will continue its search onto the opposite side of
the tape. However, if the "-
"
operating switch is pressed more
times than the number of tracks on the tape preceding the present
position,
the search function will rewind the tape to its beginning
and automatically stop
there.
•
Note that during the time you are pressing the switches to set the
number of tracks to be
skipped,
the search function is already
counting down the number of track intervals (since the search
function begins the instant the switch is first
pressed,
if an interval
between tracks is encountered while you are still pressing the
switch, the number of tracks will be decremented by
one).

When counting from the middle of a track now playing:
For example, in order to search for the fourth track after the currently playing track
,
press the "+" operating switch four times, in order to
skip over four intervals between tracks
.
In order to find the fourth track before the currently playing track, however, the
"
-" operating
switch must be pressed five times, in order to skip over five intervals between tracks, and thus arrive at the beginning of the fourth track
before the current
one.

When counting from a non-recorded interval between tracks
:
For
example,
in order to find the third track after the current position, press the"+" operating switch two times in order to skip over the two
intervening tracks, and thus arrive at the third track
.
In order to find the third track before the current position, however, the"-
"
operating
switch must be pressed three times in order to skip over the three intervening tracks and thus arrive at the beginning of the desired (third)
track before the current position
.
[When counting from either the middle of a track, or from an interval between tracks, it may help to keep in
mind that the search function in fact counts the intervals between tracks
.]
