The electronic anti-shake memory prevents the sound from disappearing or
“skipping” if the player is exposed to small bumps or vibrations.
When the CD starts to play the buffer memory is automatically switched on. The
music’s digital data is stored in the forward storage buffer memory before it is de-
coded and starts to play.
When the player encounters an impact during playing the memory continues to
decode and play. This allows time for the pickup to stabilize and continue collect-
ing new data later on.
Note! When the ESP function is activated or shut off the sound quiets down for
about 1-2 seconds.
