18 PLAYBACK BASICS

Playback Basics

Dual-Play Mode

Since the CDR 30 has more than one CD deck,

you may play a disc in either drawer.After the

unit was turned on or the Single Play Select

button on the remote or Dual/Single Play

Select

button on the front panel was

pressed, the unit will turn to the Single mode. In

that mode the Single Play Indicator

is lit

and only one disc may play at a time, even when

both decks are loaded with discs. Moreover in

the Single mode, the audio output will be fed to

all digital and analog Output jacks

¢∞•

ª¡™

for both decks.This means you may

select the input on your receiver, preamp or

processor for either deck. For example, if you

have the Play Deck connected to ”CD” and the

Record Deck connected to ”Tape,” when any

deck is playing, either input may be selected.

It is also possible to play two discs at once, using

the Dual mode. To initiate dual-mode playback,

press the Dual Play Select

button on

the remote or on the front panel until the Dual-

Play Indicator

is lit. You may play a differ-

ent disc in both decks at the same time and you

even may record on a disc in the CDR deck

and play a disc in the CDP deck

simul-

tanously. The output of each deck will be sent to

its analog and digital output jacks, and you will

need to select the deck you wish to listen to

using the input selectors on your receiver, pre-

amp or processor.You may also use the output of

one deck to feed your main-room system, while

the second deck is used to feed a remote room.

As long as the Dual-Play Indicator

is lit,

each deck functions as a separate CD player, and

will respond to its own set of controls on the

front

panel for either the

Record Deck (Ó

ÔÚÛÙˆ or

Play Deck ˘

WXY

. To control the transports using the

remote, remember to first press the Selector but-

ton for either the Play/CDP Deck

or the

Record/CDR Deck

, and then press the

desired command function.

It is possible to view the level for either the out-

put of the CDP/Play deck or the CDR/Record

deck. To select the display to be viewed, press

the desired Level Indicator Select t.

NOTE: When in the Dual mode, you may return

to Single play mode by pressing the Single Play

Select Button

on the remote or the

Dual/Single Play Select Button

on the

front panel. However, pressing the Single

Button

while both decks are playing, will

automatically stop playback of the disc in the

Record Deck

while the disc in the Play

Deck

continues to play, and the output of

the play deck will be sent to both sets of output

jacks.

NOTE: When using the dual-play function with a

conventional Audio CD in one deck and an MP3

or HDCD-encoded disc in the other, start with

either of those discs first before playing the con-

ventional CD Audio disc.

NOTE: Remember that only one MP3 disc may

play at a time, even when the Dual Play mode is

in use. If two discs containing MP3 selections are

loaded in the CDR 30, one must be removed and

replaced with a standard CD Audio disc for the

dual play mode to operate.

Two-Disc Changer Operation

Since the CDR 30 has two separate CD decks, it

may be used to function as a two-disc changer,

so that you can play two discs one after the

other

When the CDR 30 is in the Single-Play mode, as

shown by the Single-Play Indicator

being

lit, when the disc in one deck has played through

to the end, the disc in the other deck will auto-

matically begin to play. Each disc will play

through, and when one deck is finished the other

will start. To stop playback, press the Stop but-

ton

Ób

for the deck that is currently

playing.

To have the CDR 30 function as two separate CD

players, where the deck in use stops at the end

of a disc, press the Dual Button

until

the Dual-Play Indicator

lights. In the Dual

mode, each deck acts independently of the other

and when the disc in one deck finishes, it stops

unless one of the Repeat functions has been acti-

vated (see page 19).

Time Display

The CDR 30’s time display is capable of showing

a wide range of information about the contents

of a CD.

For Standard CD Audio discs, once the disc’s

Table of Contents or TOC data has been read, the

Time/Message Display

will show the num-

ber of tracks on the disc in the two left digits of

the display, and the total running time of the disc

in the remainder of the display. When the disc is

playing, the tracks will count up as each new

track is reached, and time display will show the

elapsed time for the track being played.

To view the time remaining in the track being

played, press the Display button

ˆ˘

for the deck in use so that the Track

Remain Time Indicators

WTS

illuminate.

The Time/Message Display

will count

down the time remaining in the track, and at the

start of the next track the counter will start to

count down the running time of that track.

To view the total time remaining on the disc,

press the Display Button

ˆ˘

for the

deck in use so that the Total Remain Time

Indicators

VTS

light. The Time/Message

Display

will show the total time remaining

for all tracks on the disc and count down until

the disc has finished playing. Note that all time

modes listed above are selectable also with pro-

grammed tracks (see page 19) except the total

remaining time.

For MP3 discs, once the disc’s Table of Contents

data has been read, the Time/Message Display

will show the total number of tracks on the

disc. During disc playback, press the appropriate

Display Button

ˆ˘

for the deck in

use, and with each press the display will cycle

through the following available information:

Elapsed time of current track ➜ Remaining Time

of current track ➜ Current Track Number ➜ File

name of Current Track (Up to the first six digits)

To read the total time of all tracks recorded on

an MP3 disc, the disc must be stopped. Then,

press and hold the CDP or CDR Display

Button

ˆ˘

(as appropriate) for three

seconds, until a TTL TIME ON message

appears in the Time/Message Display

. Then

press the CDP or CDR Display Button again to

alternate between a display of the total number

of tracks and the total time of the disc. Press and

hold the CDP or CDR Display Button

ˆ˘

again for three seconds until a

TTL TIME OFF message appears in the

Time/Message Display

to return to stan-

dard display.

Headphone Listening

You may listen to the output of the CDR 30

through headphones at any time by simply plug-

ging the headphones into the Front-Panel Jack

. The volume of the headphone output may be

adjusted with the Headphones Level Control

. Note that changes to the headphone level

will not alter the output settings to the analog

outputs.Those levels are fixed, and the volume

should be adjusted using your receiver, preamp

or processor.

Note that when only one deck is playing back a

disc in the single play mode, the output of that

deck will be fed to the headphone jack. When

the unit is in the Dual-Playback mode, only the

output of the Play Deck

will be fed to the

headphone jack.
