Loop Mode Page
The MasterLink defaults to "Loop Off"; pressing UP/YES once will change the Loop mode to "Track
Loop", which applies to Tracks in a Playlist as well as to tracks on a CD. Another press of the UP/YES
button will change the Loop mode to "Playlist/CD Loop", which will loop an entire Playlist or CD
indefinitely.
8.3 UTIL3:PLAYLIST BACKUP
This feature provides the ability to back up and restore all parameters of a Playlist to CD. When
creating a CD24, any DSP that has been applied to the Playlist is rendered to the audio during the CD
creation process. With the Playlist Backup function, all audio is saved to CD as un-rendered AIFF files,
and the real-time Track DSP settings are saved to the CD as well. In other words, your Playlist may be
preserved as a "work in progress", with the DSP settings saved separately from the raw, unprocessed
Audio Files on the same CD. These discs are also ISO9660-compliant, so if you wish to access the un-
rendered audio in a PC or Macintosh, they can be accessed as easily as a CD24 disc.
To initiate a Playlist Backup, press the UTILITY button repeatedly until Utility Page 3 is displayed, as
shown in Figure 8.3.1.

Playlist Backup Page
Pressing the DOWN/NO button in this page will have no effect. Pressing the UP/YES button will
prompt you with an "Are you sure? Y/N" message. Pressing DOWN/NO at that point will cancel
the Playlist Backup operation. Pressing UP/YES at the prompt will begin the backup process.
If there is no blank CD in the drive, the CD tray will eject and the display will prompt you to insert a
blank CD, as in Figure 8.3.2.
