These numbers may also be used in conjunction with other features, such
as programming and direct access by time. For example, when in the
mode, you may press
your playlist. In this case, the Nº39 would play that particular disc normally,
except that it would automatically skip from track 4 to track 6.
Selecting a particular track does not affect the operating mode. That is to
say, pressing while in

leaves you paused at the beginning of track 4.

6 OTHER OPERATIONAL BUTTONS
time : Pressing this button (followed by appropriate numbers from
the numeric keypad) allows direct access to any particular time
on a disc. Note that this is a context-sensitive control—the time
accessed will be according to the currently selected time
display mode, e.g., 30:00 with the
LEDs lit will take you to that point where thirty minutes re-
disc
mains to the end of the disc.
polarity : Pressing this button on the Nº39 remote control will trans-
parently and automatically invert the polarity of both channels.
Some recordings sound better with one polarity than the other;
on many, the difference is subtle. In any case, the best place to
judge the better polarity for any given recording is from the lis-
tening position (hence the placement of this feature on the re-
mote control).

mute : Pressing this button will engage the
patible Mark Levinson preamplifier without stopping the trans-
port. Pressing it a second time will restore the volume to its pre-
vious setting. Since this function depends on the ability of the
Nº39 to pass the instruction to the Nº38 (for example), the two
components must be connected by a Link cable, and operate
within a system which has a "master" digital processor. (See Spe-
cial Functions for more information.) If you are using the Nº39's
preamp (variable output) feature, the Nº39 will engage its own
mute circuitry instead.

to use its own, internal volume control in all-digital systems lack-
