Note on Beeps during AMS
operations
• When finding the beginning of the
next 3 tracks during AMS
operations, beeps “• – – –” (beep
followed by three long beeps) are
emitted repeatedly. Likewise, when
finding the beginning of the
previous 2 tracks, beeps “•• – – –”
are emitted repeatedly. While the
remaining tracks are reduced, the
number of long beeps are reduced
accordingly.
Note on AMS, REPEAT Single
Track
• To operate the AMS and the
REPEAT Single Track functions, you
need a blank of 4 seconds or longer
between the tracks. Therefore, if
there is noise between the tracks,
these functions will not detect the
blank and will not operate. Likewise,
if the recording level is moderately
low within a track, these functions
may inaccurately operate.
