SYSTEM OPERATION
18
With CDs already stored
in
the system, use the preset you prefer
to
get
started:
1.
Press
Stored
on
your
L1FESTYLE®
remote.
2.
Check the media center display
to
see which play mode is selected.
• If it says UMUSIC, you are ready
to
listen and enjoy.
• If it says ENCORE, CD#, PLAYLlST,
or
WHOLE CD, press
uMusic
on the remote
to
get
the
system out
of
the special play mode.
3. Just listen
for
a while.
Notice there's no identifiable order
to
what
plays: not
by
CDs that were stored first,
nor
by
common
artist
or
genre. It's more like a freewheeling stream
of
tracks you
mayor
may not
have heard recently.
4.
While
in
Stored source, pressing a numbered button - from 2
to
9 - moves into a differ-
ent preset. The music playing will change when this happens.
l' Note:
You
can give each preset a name, up to eight letters long, for the person or reason for
using
it.
For details on
how
to do this, refer to "Media center options" on page 38.

or

lj'
The system begins
to
play the next track, notes that you may not be
in
the
mood
for this
one now, and prepares
to
learn more.
• Press the - rating button if the track playing
is
just not right for this preset.
The system logs your strongly negative response and moves
to
another track immediately.
If a
track
stands
out
as a real favorite:
• Press the
+rating button.
The system logs your response as positive and continues playing the track.
You
are likely
to
hear more music from that artist and album sooner than some others.
If you want
to
train your preset more quickly:
• Press
Library,
so you can
look
through music stored on the system and rate it by genre, artist,
track,
or
entire CD.
l' Note: For details on using the Music Library, refer to "Check
in
at
your Music Library" on
page
19.
Use
the
Playlist
to
line
up
tracks
for
play
The system includes a ready-to-use playlist, so you can line up specific tracks
in
the order
you choose and play them on command.
)
Note:
If
you simply want music to set a certain ambiance, you may find it easier to choose a
preset
and
let the system
do
the selecting.
The playlist can be useful when you want a very specific
type
of
music, your holiday favorites,
for example.
You
can also use it when you want certain tracks
to
play
in
a specific order.
To
add music
to
the Playlist:
• While listening
to
a
track
in
Stored source (and
not
in
Playlist), press and hold
Playlist
on the
remote.
• Locate selections using
the
Music Library, then press and hold
Playlist
to
add them
to
a
Playlist one by one.
Or,
you can easily add a whole batch
of
selections
by
one artist, a
genre,
or
from one CD.
