original version, the following message is displayed:
Press the [YES] field to overwrite the old version.

the data are saved.

Working with the Song Finder
The Song Finder allows you to quickly locate the songs
you want to play back. You will see in a minute that it is
far more powerful when you work with the internal
memory or memory cards than with floppy disks.
(1) Press the FINDER [SONG] button.
You can also press the [SONG] field on the main page.
The display changes to:
Songs that also contain lyrics information are
flagged by means of a “ ” icon. The note ( ) means
that the file in question also contains Play & Search
information.
(2) Specify the memory area that contains the song
you need: [EXTERNAL¥MEMORY], [FLOPPY] or
[INTERNAL¥MEMORY].
The display shows a list of 5 songs in the selected
memory area.
If you press [INTERNAL¥MEMORY] or
[EXTERNAL¥MEMORY]
…the display changes to:
The [SONG¥NAME], [ARTIST], [GENRE] and [FILE¥NAME]
fields allow you to sort songs in alphabetical order.
This sorting order is determined by the selected cate-
gory.
(3) If the name of the song you want to use to is
already displayed, press its line.
(4) To display the next 5 songs, press the [˚] field in the
lower right corner.
You can press this field as many times as necessary
(or until it is no longer displayed).
To return to a previous group of 5 songs, press [ø].
(You can also use the [DATA÷ENTRY] dial and the
[DEC]/[INC] buttons to change pages.)
Locating files with the Song Finder
The following is not available for floppy disks.
a) Choose a category (Index)
The highest hierarchical level of the Song Finder
database is called “Index”. All search operations apply
to the selected Index (and therefore not necessarily
to all files in the internal memory or on card).
Press the [INDEX] field in the top left corner.
Either press the field that corresponds to the desired
song category or –if you’re not sure which category
the song belongs to– [ALL].
Note: The remaining options on this page (RENAME, EDIT and
COPY) are only available for specific categories.
Press [Back]. The display returns to the page shown
under step (1) above. This time, however, only songs
belonging to the selected Index are displayed.
