CD PITCH CONTROL buttons
By pressing the CD player PITCH CONTROL
buttons, you can adjust the CD player playback
pitch from -12% to +12% in 0.1% increments.
You can return the CD player to the normal
speed position by pressing the center “0”
control. Pressing the center “0” control again
returns it to the previous settings.

CAUTION - When the CD pitch control is used,
digital lock may not occur with some D/A
converters connected via the CD DIGITAL OUT
jack E .

REVERSE MODE switch
The REVERSE MODE switch allows you to set
the automatic tape direction operation of the
tape transport during playback, normal record-
ing or dubbing. The four positions of this switch
are as follows;

One-way mode.
In this position, the tape will play or record one
side of the tape and stop.

Two-way mode.
In this position, the tape will play or record both
sides of the tape and stop.

Continuous mode.
In this position, the tape will play in a continu-
ous loop until the stop command is given. In the
record mode, the tape will record both sides of
the tape and stop.

Notes:
Quick reverse operation will only occur after the
transport has been moving for 15 seconds.
Before that time, it takes approximately four
seconds to reverse. One second of audio is lost
during quick reverse.

CASCADE mode:
In this position, multiple Marantz Professional
tape decks that are equipped with the “EXT”
cascade connector can be looped together to
allow for extended cascade playback or record-
ing. In this mode, the tape will play or record
both sides of the tape; and, at the end of the
tape on the first deck, a command will be
issued causing the next deck in line to begin
cascade play or record. This will continue until
the end of the last tape on the last deck of the
loop is reached.

DOLBY NR switch
The DOLBY NR switch allows for the encoding
or decoding of Dolby B or C Noise Reduction.
When recording with Dolby Noise Reduction on,
select the type (B or C) of noise reduction
desired and place the switch in the appropriate
position. When playing a tape with Dolby Noise
Reduction encoded onto it, place this switch in
the same position (B or C) in which it was
recorded.

By pressing the TIME button, you can adjust the
CD player time displayed from the following
formats.
NORMAL - Displays the time elapsed within the
current track being played. No special indicator.

l in the display) is lit.

on the current disk being played. TOTAL and
REM indicators (items k and l in the display)
are both lit.
The TIME button can be toggled between the
various displays by pressing the TIME button
multiple times.

REPEAT button
By pressing the REPEAT button, you can
program the CD player to repeat all tracks of the
current disk. When there is a CD play program
that is currently active, this function will repeat
the current program selections. To clear this
function, press the repeat control button again.

A-B button
The A-B button allows you to repeat a specific
section in the current CD track that is being
played. When this control is pressed the first
time, the A-B indicator flashes and this position
on the track is noted as the start or A point.
When this control is pressed again, the A-B
indicator is lit and this position on the track is
noted as the end or B point. After setting the end
point, the CD player returns to the start point (A)
and plays until it reaches the end point (B). The
CD player will repeat this function until the stop
or REPEAT button is press again.

The PROGRAM button will place the CD player
into the program entry mode or the single track

entry mode and the program indicator will begin
