AUTO/MANUAL
CUE-CONTROL"
Precise Stylus-to-Groove Cueing
With the Auto/Manual Cuc-Control, still another
measure of flexibility and precision has been added
to the unrestricted automatic and manual ploy that
has long been available in all Dual automatic turn-
tables.
The Cue-Control makes it pousble to pre-position
the stylua over any groove and then lower it with
abeoalute accuracy into thal very mime groove
You can also play to any point, interrupt with the
Cue-Control, and resume play at that very note
(This serves os an effective test for eccentric rec-
ord center holes.)
A close look af the stylus aa it descends will show
how the vertical piston action of the Cue-Control
mechaniom raises and lowers the tonearm with no
side-shift whatever, regardicss of portion of the
record being played,
You will also notice how the silicon damping slows
the descent of the toncarm... oa far more gentle
descent than would ower be posible by hand
Using the Cue-Control
The Cue-Control has two positions: FF ito lift
the tonearm, and bl for lowering it. (Fig. 16)
To lower the tonearm to any groove, you need
give only the lightest flick to the Cuc-Control, The
descent of the tonearm is immediately taken over
by silicon damping und o piston action, Lowering
epeod is 0.5 om/second, and 4 unaffected by tem
perature or humidity changes
To rotee the tonearm, on the other hand, you da
control the rate of ascent by the speed with which
you move the Cue-Coniral from position IF to
position "¥.
With Automatic Start Too!
The Cue-Control can also be used together with
automatic start for a slower-than-normal rate of
descent, as may be desired with ultra-high compli-
unce atyli. Once the cycling aclion has placed the
loncarm over the lead-in groove and it begina to
descend, then Cue-Control takes over, The Cue-
Control itself is automatically shifted to position
=. where it is ready to raise the toncarm at any
time during play,

fogged from the Cue-Control,
Variable Cueing Height
The height of the stylia above the recon! from
which the CucControl lowers the tonearm has
been pre-set for the average cartridge depth, This
height can be Varied over 4 %e" (10mm) range by
meons of (he adjustment screw (10) located on the
Chiossis in front of the anti-skaling compensation
dial, Turning this screw counter clockwise reduces
the height, turning it clockwise increases the height.
