BASIC OPERATIONS
Online Playback and Monitor Playback
The CD player has two playback modes, online playback
and monitor playback. The output destination in each of
these playback modes can be set individually.
For example, in sites such as broadcasts and events,
the monitor playback mode can be used to cue tracks or
playback points before the final take, and then the CD
player can be set to online standby (READY), and online
playback can be performed from that point at the time of the
final take.
On this CD player, the UNBALANCED analog output
terminal and SPDIF digital output terminal are positioned
as terminals for monitor output, and the BALANCED analog
output terminal and AES/EBU digital output terminal are
positioned as terminals for online output.
Note, however, that in the default setting both the monitor
playback signal and the online playback signal are output in
the same way from all analog/digital output terminals.
