VIMA JM-5
There is no need to wait until the current song fin-
ishes: press [NEXT] when you feel the crowd is ready
for a new song.
Here is what happens when you press [NEXT]:
During the transition between the old and the new
song, the [NEXT] button’s indicator flashes.
Using playlists
The “Playlist” function allows you to prepare lists of all
songs you want to use during a performance. The
advantage of working with such “chains” is that you do
not need to select files between songs. You can also use
this functionality to provide background music between
performances.
The JM-5 ships with a playlist called “Demo Playlist” and
20 songs to which the playlist refers. This playlist cannot
be deleted.
Loading a playlist and playing back a song
1.
Connect an optional USB storage device to
the JM-5’s external memory port.
NOTE
There is no need to connect a USB memory if you want to
use the “Demo Playlist” file, because it is stored internally.
2.
Press the [PLAYLIST] button.
The display now shows a list of all available playlists.
The first line always contains the name of the inter-
nal playlist (“Demo Playlist”).
NOTE
If you already selected a playlist at an earlier stage since
switching on the JM-5, pressing [PLAYLIST] will show you
the list of songs this playlist refers to. To select a different
playlist at this stage, press the [EXIT] button.
