PRESENTING A
NEW
WAY
TO
PLAY
How
the
uMusic™
intelligent playback system works for you
We
know that the time spent sorting through CDs to locate the tracks you prefer simply
delays your listening pleasure. Now, almost instantaneously, the
uMusic™
system can
do
that
job for you: finding and playing what you most want
to
hear.
Why presets
are
important
The uMusic system provides Presets 1 through
9,
ready and waiting
to
provide each member
of
your household a private space for their personal listening preferences.
By using
an
exclusive preset, each listener helps this intelligent system distinguish their
individual reactions to what it plays. Consider each preset a center point for that person's
musical taste. Over time, the center may shift, as changes
in
taste and listening habits are
noted by the preset.
Feel
free
to
assign the presets
as
you like, give each one a name, and press just one button
on the remote to switch quickly from one to another. Consider the benefits
of
reserving a
preset for:
• Different members
of
your family, different roommates, different generations.
For the preset selected, both the number and its name, if
any,
appear on the media center
display to help you keep the assignments straight.
,)
Note: Ifseveral family members store their CO tracks on the system, be sure each one has an
assigned preset
and
uses that preset when listening.
• Different listening times or frames
of
mind: wake-up, workout, weekends, homework, yard
work, craft work, etc. For smaller households, it makes sense
to
change presets for differ-
ent activities during your day.
Just remember that no preset is locked into its assignment. At any time, you can completely
clear the memory
of
a stored music preset and reassign it to another person or purpose. It's
strictly your choice. And you are free
to
use one and only one preset forever, if that's what you
prefer.
Switch from
one
to
another
easily
Pressing one or two buttons
is
all it takes.
• If you are not yet
in
the uMusic system mode, press the remote control
Stored
button
to
get
there.
• While
in
the uMusic system mode, press a number button, from 1 to
9,
to activate one
of
the presets.
Use the selection
and
rating buttons as you like
With your preset selected,
do
what you normally
do
while listening:
• Let the track play to its conclusion if you
don't
want to take any action.
Or,
• Press the
Seek
button
to
move
on
to
the next track if you like.
Or,
• Press
Repeat
for any tracks you want to hear again.
Or,
• Use the +and - buttons to rate tracks you react to strongly.
No matter which
of
the above actions you take while listening, the system continues
to
select
from the entire contents
of
your stored music. Your preset keeps track of these responses, so
the system learns to play certain music more or less often.
Yet,
for tracks you rate negatively,
a small chance remains that you will hear that music
in
the future. Only by deleting a track
from the system can you ensure it will never play again.

Note:
To
name a preset,
or
delete a track from the system, select the appropriate option from
the System menu. For more information, refer to "DVD settings options" on page 46.
