2.2 Making a Radio Preset You can save up to 20 preset stations with the FM remote control. Once you have found the radio station you want to preset, press and hold the rocker button for 3 seconds. The Remote will show P2 Saved, for example, indicating that this radio station is now program 2. If you would like to erase a preset station, go to the tuning Preset mode, scroll to the program number you want to clear, then hold down for three seconds. You now have a free program slot to make a different FM preset. If you would like to name your Preset radio stations, you can do this by editing, with a text editor such as Notepad or SimpleText (Do no use a program such as Microsoft ® Word), the file FMPreset.txt which you will find on the root directory of the Jukebox hard drive. Each line of the text file should contain the station frequency, a space character, and then the name of the station. Some examples are 90.0 Easy Jazz or 107.8 Smash Hits FM Radio 107.8 or 91.3 KGTS. You are limited to 32 characters for naming a station preset. The entry on a line of 0.0 represents an empty preset slot. 2.3 Setting the HOLD mode Use this feature if you would like to prevent the FM Remote from changing stations or settings accidentally if a button is pressed or hit. Hold down for three seconds on the HOLD button to activate this. None of the buttons will now respond to being pressed. To de- activate HOLD and make all buttons usable, press the HOLD button again for 3 seconds. Using the HOLD on the Remote will lock both the Remote’s buttons and the Jukebox’s buttons. You can also hold down on the F1 button on the Jukebox to de-activate HOLD. 6 2.4 Recording from the Radio When you hear something on the radio you would like to record, click once on the REC button. The REC button will light up red to indicate that a recording is taking place. Click it again when you want to stop the recording. The file name for this recording will be RADIOxxxx.mp3, where xxxx are incremental numbers. It will be saved in the last folder you were in before you switched to the FM mode. You can change the recording gain while recording, by pressing the rocker to the left (less gain) or to the right (more gain) . 2.5 Retro Recording and Editing Retro- recording: This a feature that allows you to capture the 30 seconds ( approximately) of Radio before the record button is pressed. It does this by continuously recording 30 seconds of music in a buffer, then when you click on Rec to record the Radio, it adds this 30 seconds to the front of your recording. This way, if you start recording a radio song after it has started, you will actually have the entire song in the recording. The Retro-Record setting must be set to ON in order for this to work. On the Jukebox, go to Setup > [ FM Radio] > Retro- Recording: On. You will notice that when a retro- recording begins, the display will already show an elapsed time of 00:28 (28 seconds). Editing: Once a retro-recorded song has been recorded, it can be edited on the Jukebox itself. Often, the beginning of the recording will include a commercial or announcer talk that you do not want to keep, but was also recorded during the buffered 30 seconds. Locate this file on your Jukebox and play it. You notice that F1 is now called Edit. Click on F1 and you will go into the Editing mode to cut out portions from the beginning and end of the song that you do not want. The song will continually loop while in editing mode. You can use the regular Forward .. • and Reverse .. • buttons to move around within the song. While the song is playing, wait for the precise moment that you want the edited song to start and click F1 I- cut (In cut). This is the point that your new edited song will start. Let the song continue and then at the precise moment you want the edited song to stop, click on F2 O- cut (Out cut) . This is the point that your new edited song will stop. Now click on F3 Close, which will ask you if you want to keep your edit. If you are not happy with your edit, just click on No and retry another edit. If you click Yes, the Jukebox will run through a short Read/ Write process and create a new file which will be your edited file. It will have the same name as the original file but with the word edit appended to it. 2.6 Recording from the Microphone From the browse mode, go to the folder where you want your voice recording to be saved. Then, simply press on the REC button and speak into the microphone (the small hole next to the MP3/ FM button) . The REC button will light up red to indicate that a recording is taking place. Click it again when you want to stop the recording. The file name for this recording will be VOICExxxx. mp3, where xxxx are incremental numbers. You can change the recording gain while recording, by pressing the rocker to the left (less gain) or to the right ( more gain). 7 2.7 Playing MP3 files While in browse mode, you can use the FM remote to search for and play MP3 files.
