Notes for IPSS function
@ IPSS detects low volume levels (blank spaces between se-
lections) in order to determine when each selection begins
and ends. When the music signals are below a specific
volume level for a length of time which is more than approxi-
mately 4 seconds, that interval is detected.as a blank space
between selections.
@ During classical music selections and music selections
which have been recorded “Live”, some parts may contain
low signals for an interval of more than 4 seconds, and IPSS
may detect this space as an interval between selections. |
@ During some “Live” recordings, there may be applause be-
tween the selections. Such intervals (which have a volume
which is too high) will not be detected as blank spaces and
will be skipped by the IPSS system.
@ Pressing the >> or <q button at the very beginning or end
of a selection may cause malfunction of the IPSS function.
@ IPSS is automatically defeated when the power is turned off.
