The display looks more or less as follows:
(5) Locate the song you wish to assign to step 01.
If it is already displayed, continue with step (6) below.
If it is not yet displayed, use the PAGE [ø][˚] fields in
the lower right of the display to change pages. (You
can also use the [DATA÷ENTRY] dial or the [DEC]/[INC]
buttons.)
You can also use the following fields for narrowing
down your search if you are overwhelmed by the
number of songs (and pages you need to scroll):
[INDEX], [SONG≈NAME], [ARTIST], [GENRE],
[FILE¥NAME] and [FINDER]. See page 140.
(6) Select the song you wish to assign by pressing its
field (so that it is displayed in orange).
(7) Press the [GET¥IT] field.
This takes you to the following page. The song is
assigned to step 01, and step 02 becomes the last one
of your chain (*End*):
The [02≈*End*] field is selected automatically, so you
can assign a song to it right away.
(8) Repeat steps (4)~(7) above to assign a song to this
step.
(9) After compiling your play list, press the [SAVE]
field.
(10) Enter a name (up to 18 characters).
See p. 49 for how to enter names.
(11) Press the [EXECUTE] field to save your list to the
indicated memory area.
Note: This only saves the Play List (i.e. the references to exist-
ing song files). The songs themselves are not saved, because
that is unnecessary. On the other hand, if you delete a song
(see p. 142) that is referenced by a Play List step, playback
stops at that (empty) step during playback, and the “File not
found” message appears.
The display shows a confirmation message and then
returns to the PLAY LIST page.
(12) Press the [EXIT] button to return to the main page.
That page now looks as follows:
See “Using Play Lists” on p. 148 for how work with
your list. If you need to return to the Play List, either
press the PLAY LIST field in the upper left corner, or
press and hold the [PLAY¥LIST] button.
Editing Play Lists
If, while programming or using a Play List, you notice
that one song is missing from the list, or if you decide
not to use a given song after all, you need to edit your
Play List. Steps (1)~(3) below are only necessary if you
want to edit a different chain than the one you have
just programmed.
(1) Press and hold the RECORDER [PLAY¥LIST] button to
jump to the PLAY LIST page.
(2) Press the field of the chain you wish to edit.
Depending on the number of lists already present in
the selected memory area, you may have to use the
scroll bar (or [DATA÷ENTRY] dial, or the [DEC]/[INC]
buttons).
