Playing tracks in a different order
Normally the tracks are played in the order of the
CD. There are however three modes that allow you
to change the playing order and even can prevent
tracks from playing altogether.
The three modes are Program Play (PROG), Shuffle
Play (SHUF) and Repeat Play (REPEAT).
Program Play (PROG)
With Program Play you can change the playback of
a CD:
Only play the tracks you want to hear (and thus skip
the others).
Play certain tracks a number of times.
Change the complete playing order.
Select those tracks that exactly fill one side of a
tape.
To do this you first have to select the wanted tracks
and program them into memory. Then you can start
Program Play mode.
Note
: Tracks will be played in the order of
programming.
Programming is only possible when the CD has
stopped (STOP). If you press the
??
PROG button
during Play mode the display will show » GO TO
STOP «, while nothing further will happen.
