You can change the tape speed during
playback, allowing to change the pitch of
the reproduced sound.
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.
OAt the fully clockwise position, the tape
speed is approx. 12% faster .
OAt the fully counter-clockwise position,
the tape speed is approx. 12% slower.
Pitch Control
OIf, 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.
OWhen the Òbutton 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.
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.
OWhen 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.)
CPS allows the selection and playback of
any tune up to 15 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:
OIn 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".
OThe Ò(Fast Forward) and 
(Rewind) buttons act as CPS buttons
during playback. This is why the main
unit indicates "Ú CPS ÆÒ"
for these buttons, while the remote
control unit shows just "Ò". In
the following explanation, these buttons
are described as just "" and "Ò".
1. During forward playback, press the
or Òbutton repeatedly until the
number of tunes to be skipped appears
