RELAY PLAY

 

(continuous playback of the tapes in deck A and deck B) 

•  Load a cassette tape into deck A and B, and set the Dolby NR button 
 

correctly on deck A and B. 

 

MUSIC SEARCH SYSTEM

 

The music search system detects blank sections (lasting for at least 4 seconds) between 
selections in order to locate the beginning of selections in the forward or reverse direction. 

1.  To advance from the current selection to the beginning of the next 
 selection 

(CUE): 

Press the PLAY button simultaneously with the Fast Forward button when the tape is 
traveling in the forward direction. Press the PLAY button simultaneously with the 
Rewind button when the tape is traveling in the reverse direction. 
The deck will skip the rest of the current selection and automatically resume play from 
the beginning of the next selection. 

2.  To repeat playback from the beginning of the current selection: 

Press the PLAY button simultaneously with the Rewind button when the tape is traveling 
in the forward direction. Press the PLAY button simultaneously with the Fast Forward 
button when the tape is traveling in the reverse direction. 
The deck will rewind the tape to the beginning of the current selection and 
automatically resume play from that point. 
This is very convenient for repeating playback of the current selection. 

 
 
Notes on Music Search Operation: 

The search functions operates by detecting comparatively long, blank sections 
approximately 4 to 5 seconds long, in between recorded selections. Therefore, the system 
may not operate normally in the following cases: 

•  Recordings with discontinuous speech or conversation. 
•  Recordings with long periods of pianissimo (softly played music). 
•  Recordings with long silences. 
•  Blank sections with a high level of noise. 
•  Blank sections shorter than 4 seconds. 
•  If noise-emitting appliances, such as electric razors, drills, refrigerators, 
 

etc., are operated nearby. 

•  REV close the beginning of the program or CUE close to the ending. 

 

 

 

 

REVERSE MODE set to "RELAY". 

 

 

 

 

Press the PLAY button of the deck you first wish to listen to. 
The PLAY indicator of the deck playing back the tape will light up. ~3  

 

 

 

 

To stop relay play, press the stop button of the deck currently 

 

playing the tape. 

•  Relay play will play decks A and B in succession for 5 cycles, upon which playback 

stops. When playback starts from deck B, when switching to deck A, the first deck 
A playback cycle will be counted as the second cycle. The completion of 5 cycles 
will always be at the opposite side of the tape in deck B. 

NOTE:  

If both decks A and B are set to the play or record modes while in the relay mode, 
the relay mode is cancelled and the RELAY indicator turns off. To set the relay 
mode again, first set both decks A and B to the stop mode. 
The RELAY indicator turns back on.

TWIN OUTPUT

 

With the DN-770R, it is possible to play tapes simultaneously on decks A and B and 
output their signals at the same time. 
When both decks A and B are played, the signals for deck A are output from the deck A 
line out jacks, and the signals from deck B are output from the deck A/B line out jacks. 

•   The deck A line out jacks are exclusively for the deck A signals. 
•   The deck A/B line out jacks are for both the deck A and deck B signals. 
•   Use the deck A/B line output jacks when connecting one of the sets of 

line outputs to a receiver or amplifier.
