18 PROGRAM PLAY

The CDR 25’s advanced programming system
enables you to preset the order in which tracks
are played, to repeat one track or all tracks, or to
repeat any segment of a disc without regard to
track numbers.

Programming Playlists
To program the order of playback for the tracks
on a disc, insert the disc, let the unit read the
Table of Contents information, and wait until the
disc has stopped and the number of tracks and
total running time is displayed. Next, select the
deck that will be programmed by pressing the
CDP Select button 

3 on the remote for the

Play Deck 3 or the CDR Select button 

on the remote for the Record Deck %.

To begin the programming sequence, press the
Program button 

4 and note that the

PROG

Indicator B will illuminate and the

Information Display K will show 
00 00

: 00.

Next, enter the track numbers to be played by
pressing the Numeric Keys

F. For two-digit

track numbers, be certain to enter the second
digit within three seconds after the first number
is entered. As each track is entered, the display
will blink three times, alternating between two
displays. The first display will show the track
number just entered on the left side of the
Information Display K under the Track
Indicator O, while the right side will flash the
number of steps that have been programmed.
For example, after programming the first step 
to be track number 3, the display will flash 
03P-01

.

Alternating with the track number and program
step will be a display of the track and the total
running time of all tracks that have been
programmed so far. For example, a display of
06 11:25

will indicate that track number six

was the last track programmed, and that the
total time of all tracks so far is 11 minutes and
25 seconds.

These displays will alternate three times, and
then show a steady display of the total time and
last track programmed.

Now you can continue to add tracks in the order
you wish to have them played until the program-
ming session is complete. You may add up to 20
tracks, repeating a track if desired, as long as
the total number does not exceed 20. If you
exceed the 20 track limit, the display will read
F U L L

. Tracks may also be added using the

Óˆ and Previous buttons

5Ô˜ to locate the track, and the
Program button 

4 to enter that track to

the programmed sequence. In that case you’ve
not to wait until the steady display is shown
befor the next track can be programmed.

When the complete list of tracks has been
entered, press the Play button 

9*˘. The

tracks will then play in the order they have been
entered. Note that a programmed list of tracks
may also be recorded if the disc being pro-
grammed is in the Play Deck 3. Follow the
instructions on page 20 for complete informa-
tion on recording and dubbing.

Once you have entered a program list it will
remain in the unit’s memory until the disc is
removed or the unit is turned off. Thus, if you
play through a program list, simply press the
Play button 

9*˘ again to replay the list.

To cancel an entire program list while the pro-
gram is playing, press the Program button
4 and note that the Program Indicator
B will go out. To remove a total program list
when the disc is stopped, simply open and close
the disc drawer. Whenever a disc is removed or
the unit is turned off, the program list is erased.

Repeat Play
The CDR 25’s programming system enables you
to repeat either a single track on a disc, the
entire disk (or all programmed tracks), or a spe-
cially programmed passage that you select.

Repeat One Track
To repeat the track you are currently listening to,
press the Repeat button

6 and note that the

Repeat Indicator D and the 1 Repeat-
Status Indicator E will both light. If the track
is changed by using the Next/Previous Skip
button 

5ÓÔˆ˜ while the Repeat

1 mode is active, the new track will now be
repeated.

Once Repeat 1 playback has been started, it will
continue until the unit is stopped by pressing the
Stop button

N&¸, or the disc deck is

opened by pressing the appropriate
Open/Close button 7$

2. When play-

back is stopped, the Repeat sequence is erased
and must be reentered if you wish to repeat a
track on another disc.

Repeat All Tracks
To repeat all the tracks on a disc (or all pro-
grammed tracks) in order, press the Repeat but-
ton 

6 twice while the disc is playing and note

that the Repeat Indicator D and the All
Repeat-Status Indicator E will light. Once
the Play button 

9*˘ is pressed, the disc

will play through from beginning to end continu-
ally, until the Stop button 

N&¸ is pressed.

The Repeat All function may be cancelled at any
time by pressing the Repeat button 

6 once

until both the Repeat Indicator D and All
Repeat-Status Indicators E go out. The
Repeat All Function is also canceled when the
disc drawer is opened.

Repeat A-B
The CDR 25 may be programmed to repeat any
section within a track, or a complete passage
that includes material from a series of consecu-
tive tracks.

To program the unit for A-B Repeat play, first
play the disc and locate the point where you
wish to begin the repeated section. At the start
point, press the A-B Repeat button 

Q and

note that the Repeat Indicator D goes on
and the Repeat-Status Indicator E will
show an A and flash. Let the disc play until the
point at which the section to be repeated will
end. At that end point, press the A-B Repeat
button 

Q again and note that the Repeat-

Status Indicator E will stop flashing and will
light showing Repeat A-B.

The unit will immediately begin to play the
section you have programmed, and continually
repeat it.

To resume normal play, press the A-B Repeat
button 

Q. The Repeat A-B Indicators DE

will go out, and the disc will continue playing
through to the end. Stopping the disc or opening
the disc drawer will automatically cancel the
Repeat A-B programming.
