Notes
• The deck stops automatically after repeating the
sequence five times.
• The AMS function may not operate correctly under
the following circumstances:
–
When the unrecorded space between songs is
less than 4 seconds long.
– If completely different information is recorded
on the left and right channels.
– When there are continuous sections of
extremely low level or low frequency sound
(like those of a baritone sax).
– When the unit is placed near a television. (In
this case, we recommend moving the unit away
from the television or turning off the television.)
