Gemini MP-3000X Manuel D'instructions page 6

ORDER OF READING FOR MP3 FILES:
All MP3 files must have the extension *.mp3. If there are no files with *.mp3
extensions or MP-3000X cannot read the file system correctly the CD player will
indicate NO DISK and the MP3 segment in the right corner of LCD display will blink.
If a file has no *.mp3 extension, it will be skipped, during the file system reading.
(See w.wna and r.jpg files in the diagram). UDF format is not supported. For MP3
files with adaptive bit-rates, the ELAPSED and REMAIN time indication may be
inaccurate. The MP-3000X will only play the first session of tracks on a CD that has
been recorded in a MULTISESSION or MIXED mode.

FLY CUE & CUE INSTRUCTIONS:
The FLY CUE (18) function lets you set cues "on the fly" with the press of a button.
Press FLY CUE (18) when the disc reaches the musical location you wish to make
your CUE or START POINT. The CUE POINT is now programmed. Press CUE/
PREVIEW (12) to return to the CUE POINT. Press PLAY/PAUSE (11) and the unit
will instantly start from this pre-programmed spot.
AND/OR:
1. To preprogram a cue point (the spot on a CD at which you want play to start) select
the proper track and push PLAY/PAUSE (11) so the unit enters the PLAY mode.
When the CD reaches the approximate musical spot you wish to make your cue,
push PLAY/PAUSE (11) so the unit enters the PAUSE mode (PLAY/PAUSE LED
blinks). Move the JOG WHEEL (22) forward or in reverse until the precise spot at
which you want CD play to begin is located. For MP3 disks use the INNER WHEEL
to find the precise spot. (You will not hear the music when moving OUTER WHEEL).
Push PLAY/PAUSE (11). The cue point is now programmed. Press CUE/PREVIEW
(12) to return to this preprogrammed cue point at any time. Push PLAY/PAUSE (11)
and the unit will instantly play from the pre-selected spot.
2. To fine-tune your pre-programmed CUE POINT, push PLAY/PAUSE (11) so the unit
enters the PLAY mode. Push the CUE/PREVIEW (12) button and the CD will return
to the CUE POINT you programmed in step #1 and begin play from that point. If
you decide this CUE or STARTING POINT is okay, leave the unit alone until you are
ready to play.
3. If, however, the selected spot is not exactly where you want it, push the CUE/
PREVIEW (12) button while the CD is playing and the disc will return to the pre-
programmed cue point. Locate the exact spot on the CD at which you want play to
start by turning the JOG WHEEL (22). Push PLAY/PAUSE (11) to preprogram this new
cue point. Press the CUE/PREVIEW (12) button to pause play at the new CUE POINT.
Push PLAY/PAUSE (11) at any time and the unit will play from the pre-selected spot.
ROBO START INSTRUCTIONS:
IN SINGLE-AUTO CUE MODE:
Use ROBO START (29) in SINGLE AUTO CUE mode to alternate play between the
MP-3000Xs two sides (one track from one side, then one from the other). In
SINGLE AUTO CUE mode play starts immediately with no blank or "dead" space.
ROBO START (29) causes one side of the CD player to play when the other side is
paused.
1. Engage SINGLE AUTO CUE mode with the SINGLE AUTO CUE/CONTINUOUS
(17) button.
2. Press the ROBO START (29) button to activate ROBO START (29). Play will
alternate between the two CD players. At the end of a track, the playing side
pauses and the other CD deck plays a track. At the end of this track, the playing
side pauses and the first CD deck resumes play.
IN CONTINUOUS MODE OR DURING NORMAL PLAY:
I
f you use the ROBO START (29) function without SINGLE AUTO CUE MODE (in
CONTINUOUS MODE or during normal play), CD deck play does not alternate
automatically. The PLAY/PAUSE (11) button must be pressed on the playing deck
for the second deck to play.
1. During normal play, set a cue point on the second CD deck.
2. Press the ROBO START (29) button to activate ROBO START.
3. Press PLAY/PAUSE (11) button on the playing side to start play from the cue point
on the other CD deck.
NOTE : PAUSING PLAY IN THE MIDDLE OF A TRACK CAUSES THE OTHER CD DECK TO
PLAY. WHEN THE NEW TRACK ENDS, PLAY RESUMES ON THE FIRST CD PLAYER FROM
THE POINT AT WHICH, IT WAS PAUSED.
TROUBLESHOOTING:
• If a disk will not play, check to see that it was loaded correctly (label side up) and that the CD unit
is on a flat, level, stable surface. Check disc for dirt, scratches, spills, etc.
(5) b.mp3
• If the disc spins but there is no sound, check the cable connections. If they are okay, check your
(4) c.mp3
amplifier or receiver.
• If the CD skips, check it for dirt, oil or scratches. Do not assume that the CD player or laser is
defective. Many CDs are recorded "out of spec" and skip on most or all CD players. Before
sending the unit to an authorized Gemini service technician, insert a disc that plays properly in
(6) d.mp3
another unit.
(3) e.mp3
NOTE : DEPENDING ON THE CONDITIONS OF THE RECORDING EQUIPMENT OR THE CD-R/RW
DISC ITSELF, SOME CD-R/RW DISCS CANNOT BE PLAYED.
