Section Five: Play Mode
The Play Mode is the heart of the Cortex DMIX-600. Just like conven-
tional CD players, the DMIX-600 allows you to select multiple pitch
ranges, memorize cue points, and frame accurate searching. The DMIX-
600 excels over traditional CD players, as it is much faster at loading
and starting playback, it has a more informative LCD display, and it can
memorize cue points for future performances.
Entering Play Mode
By default, when you press Enter to select a track from Search Mode, the
unit will immediately load the track and enter Play Mode.
If music is already playing and you wish to return to the Play Mode
screen, simply press the Play Mode button.
Single Mode (Single Auto Cue)
Single Mode, when a track is loaded, it will automatically cue to the first
frame of audio, and then wait for you to press Play. At the end of that
track, the unit will pause. To engage this mode, press Shift+Single on
each side you wish to engage this mode on.
When Single Mode is off when loading a track, the unit will begin play-
ing immediately. At the end of that track, the unit will continue to play
the next file displayed in the Search Results. When Single Mode is off,
this gives you the ability to play all of the Search Results in the order
that they were displayed. Pressing Shift+Single will also allow you to
turn Single Mode off.
