CPS (Computomatic Program Search) Function CPS allows the selection and playback of any tune up to 20 tunes ahead or before the one being played. This function operates by detecting blank spaces of at least 4 seconds between tunes. These blanks can be created using the REC MUTE function. Notes on CPS CPS operates by detecting and counting blanks of about 4 seconds, the standard interval between tunes. Therefore, with the following types of tapes, search functions may not work correctly. ● When the intervals between tunes cannot be detected. - Intervals of less than 4 seconds. - High levels of noise in intervals. - Long low level sections (in classical music, etc.) This problem can be corrected using the REC MUTE function. Note: In the following steps 1 and 2, to simplify the description, the explanation is given for "forward playback" (∏ direction). A similar procedure should be used for "reverse playback". 1. During forward playback, press the or Ò button repeatedly until the number of tunes to be skipped appears in the counter display. Use the Ò button for searching a tune following the current tune and button for a tune before the current tune. Refer to the chart "How to Select Any Required Tune Using CPS". ● If, by using the Ò, the required CPS number setting is exceeded, use the button to count down the CPS number until the required CPS number is displayed. ● When the Ò button is pressed, the next tune is counted as "1" and when the button is pressed, the current tune is counted as "1". 2. The tape is fast-wound to detect blanks between tunes until the required tune is reached. Then playback starts from the beginning of the designated tune. Pitch Control You can change the tape speed during playback, allowing to change the pitch of the reproduced sound (TAPE I only). By turning the PITCH CONTROL to the right, the tape speed becomes faster, resulting in higher pitch. By turning it to the left, the tape speed becomes slower, resulting in lower pitch. O At the fully clockwise position, the tape speed is approx. 10% faster . O At the fully counter clockwise position, the tape speed is approx. 10% slower. _ 6 _
