ing, unloading and playback. Pressing the OPEN/CLOSE (6) button, will
open or close the tray. The DISC TRAY (7) holds both 12 cm and 8 cm
CDs. Please note, if the CD-150 is in play mode, the tray will not open.

OPEN/CLOSE BUTTON: Press OPEN/CLOSE (6) to load or
remove a CD from the DISC TRAY.
4. DISPLAY: The DISPLAY (11) shows the track number, pitch value,
pitch bend, single, continue (for continuous play), play/pause modes,
fast forward/reverse modes, loop mode, reloop mode, PGM, repeat
modes, the playback display bar, and 3 different time displays. These
time displays are time elapsed on the track, time remaining on the disc
and time remaining on the track. Time is measured in minutes, seconds
and frames.
The PLAYBACK DISPLAY BAR, located at the top of the DISPLAY
(11), displays the elapsed and remaining time for each track at the very
top of the display. The display flashes slowly when the track has 15 sec-
onds remaining and pulses rapidly when playing time is down to 5 sec-
onds.

PLAY/PAUSE: Each press of the PLAY/PAUSE BUTTON (20)
causes the operation to change from PLAY to PAUSE or from PAUSE
back to PLAY. The green PLAY/PAUSE LED remains lit when in PLAY
mode, while it blinks in PAUSE mode.
6. STOP: Use the STOP (9) button to end play. This button will also
erase any CUE and LOOP settings.
7. CUE: While the unit is playing and after the cue point has been pro-
grammed, pressing CUE (21) will cause the CD player to enter the
PAUSE mode (green PLAY/PAUSE LED blinks) at the programmed cue
point (the CUE LED glows blue). Holding down the CUE (21) button

CUE point. Releasing the CUE (21) button will return the CD laser to the

(8a) to select the scanning direction and speed of your CD. Slightly
