Repeating a

specific passage

To repeat (continuously) a specific phrase or passage on a CD, press

repeat A-B

at the beginning of the passage you would like to repeat. At the end of the pas-
sage, press

repeat A-B

again. The passage you selected will repeat continuously.

While the

repeat A-B

function is active,

A

then

B

will appear preceding the track

number on the display. To return to normal play without interruption, press the

repeat A-B

button again.

While in the repeat A-B mode, the following keys behave as outlined below:

play

will restart play at point A (much as doing so normally re-

turns you to the beginning of the current track).

search reverse

will “rewind” the disc back, beginning play when

you release the button. This allows you to review the lead-in to
your A-B section, as when learning a piece of music by ear.

search forward

will “fast forward” the music as far as the “B” point,

stopping there for easy access to the end of your A-B loop.

stop

will leave the

repeat A-B

mode and enter

stop

.

previous

will move you to the previous track (or index if in index

mode) whether or not it lies within the A-B loop.

next

will move you to the next track (or index if in index mode).

If this location lies beyond the defined A–B loop, the Nº31.5 will
leave

repeat A–B

mode, reverting to normal play.

direct track

access will override your A-B loop if you go beyond

the defined A–B loop.

direct time

access will also override your A-B loop if you go be-

yond the defined A–B loop.

Inverting playback polarity

If your Nº31.5 is linked to a compatible Mark Levinson digital processor via the

communication ports

, you may change the playback polarity. (See Setting Op-

tions.)

After loading a CD, press the

polarity invert

button on the digital processor’s front

panel, or press

d/a polarity

on the Nº31.5’s Remote Control, then press

play

. The

CD will play with inverted polarity.

If you want this CD to always play with inverted polarity, press

program save

before pressing

play

. The display will show

POLARITY PRG

, a small

P

will appear

preceding the track number on the display, and inverted polarity will be saved as
a “program” for that CD. (See Programming.)

Stopping play

To stop play before the end of the CD, press

Stop

. The display will show the total

number of tracks and their total playing time.

You may also stop play by pressing

Lid Open/Close

. In this case, play will stop

and the Lid will open.
