DPSS operation
The DPSS (Direct Program Search System) enables the following convenient operations according to the instructions
of the operation keys (these operation are, however, not available on both decks simultaneously). The DPSS functions
are based on the detection of non-recorded spaces of 4 seconds or more between tunes.
1. Skip play : By specifying a tune located several tunes beyond (or behind) the tune being played,
skips tunes between the current tune and the selected tune, and starts playback from the
beginning of the selected tune. Up to 16 tunes can be skipped in Skip Search.
2. Single-tune repeated
playback : One single tune is played back repeatedly up to 16 times.
3. Rewind & Play : Rewinds the tape to the beginning and starts playback from there.
4. Dash & Play : If a non-recorded space of more than 10 seconds is detected during playback, that space
will be skipped by fast forward tape winding.
