Normal Play
The FL 8385 provides a variety of ways to select discs
for playback.

with the first track on the disc currently in the play
position, and proceeding through each disc that has
been loaded, press the
Play/Pause Button ) on
the front panel, or the
Play Button g on the
remote.
To start play on a specific disc, press the
Disc Select
Button
@athat corresponds to the desired disc’s
position in the disc tray. If no disc is found in the
selected position, the unit will search for the next disc.
When a disc is in play, the
Play Indicator R will be
lit. The track being played will appear in the
Track
Number Display
D and its icon in the Remaining
Tracks Display
F will flash. The elapsed time will
appear in the
Time Display E. As the disc plays, the
track numbers shown in the
Track Number Display

Display
E will reset to at the start of each
new track.
To momentarily pause the play of a disc, press the
Play/Pause Button ) on the front panel, or the
Pause Buttoni on the remote. The Pause
Indication
P
will appear in the display to remind you
that the disc is paused. Press either the

i to resume normal play.
You may also select a track on any disc in play by
entering the desired track number directly using the
Numeric Buttons b. Note that two buttons must
always be pressed when entering a track number. Thus,
when entering track numbers 1 through 9, press the
“0” button first and then the number for the desired
track. The two buttons must be entered within three
seconds of each other.
To stop the disc, press the
Stop Button 9f.
When the stop button is pressed, the display will again
show the total number of tracks and total running time
of the last disc played.
Random Play
The FL 8385 includes three Random Play modes that
enable you to let the machine select the tracks to be
played in a random order. The Random modes may
be started at any time by pressing the
Random
Button
h on the remote when the unit is already
in Play mode.
Random: To play all the tracks on a disc in random
order, press the
Random Button h ONCE so that
the
Random Indicator A lights. The FL 8385 will
play the tracks on the disc in an order selected by the
unit’s microprocessor and stop play when all of the
tracks have been played once.
Random, Sequential: When the Random Button
h is pressed TWICE, the Random A and
Sequential B Indicators will light. In this mode,
all tracks on the current disc will be played in random
order, and then the unit will advance to the next disc in
order and play all tracks on that disc randomly. When
each disc is finished, the next disc will play its tracks in
random order until all discs have been played. After
the last disc plays, the unit will stop.
Random, All Discs: When the Random Button h
is pressed THREE times, the Random A, All Q
and Disc N Indicators will light. In this mode, the
FL 8385 will select two tracks from the disc in use and
play them randomly. After these two tracks play, another
disc will be randomly selected and two tracks will play
from that disc. This pattern of a randomly selected disc,
and the play of two random tracks from each disc, will
continue until all tracks on all discs have been played. At
that point the unit will stop.
HDCD
HDCD, which stands for High Definition Compatible
Digital,
®
is a sophisticated process that enables the
FL 8385 to deliver outstanding digital-to-analog
decoding, no matter what type of CD is played.
When a disc with the HDCD logo is played, the
FL 8385 is able to take advantage of the special
recording process that is used in the creation of HDCD
discs. Although HDCD discs are playable on any CD
player, when they are used in a unit such as the
FL 8385, the special circuitry delivers audio with
extraordinary fidelity, stunning resolution and the
highest possible overall quality. The HDCD process
effectively cancels the additive and subtractive distor-
tions that are present in other recordings.
No special adjustment is required to play an HDCD
disc. Simply play the disc as you would any other CD,
and the FL 8385 will automatically sense that it is an
HDCD recording. The
HDCD Indicator L will light in
the
Information Display # on the front panel to
remind you that an HDCD disc is playing.
It is important to note that the HDCD process is com-
pletely compatible with standard recordings. Its high-
quality digital-to-analog circuitry provides enhanced
playback from all standard CD audio discs.
Play Exchange
The FL 8385’s Play Exchange feature allows you to
change discs while the machine is playing. Using this
feature, you can enjoy uninterrupted play of an unlim-
ited number of discs, since the drawer may be opened
and discs changed while another disc is playing.
To use the Play Exchange function, simply press the
Open/Close Button 6 at any time while the unit is
in the Play mode. The disc drawer will open and two
discs will be available for change. Replace either disc,
or both, as desired. To reach the other two discs,
press the
Disc Skip Button !n.You may now
remove and change either of these two discs.
When you have finished making any disc changes,
press the
Open/Close Button 6. The drawer will
close and play will continue with normal functions.
Time Display
The FL 8385’s Time Display E is capable of show-
ing a wide range of information about a CD.
In normal operation, the display will show the total run-
ning time of the track that is currently being played.
Each time the track changes, the
Time Display E
will reset to and begin to increase again as
the disc plays.
To view the time remaining on an individual track,
press the
Time Button k on the remote control
ONCE. The
Time Display E will now show the time
left in the track currently playing.
To view the total playing time remaining on a disc,
press the
Time Button k on the remote control
TWICE. In this Time Display mode the
Track Number
Indicator
D will show the tracks remaining, differing
from the usual display of the track being played.
Headphone Listening
You may listen to the output of the FL 8385 through
headphones by plugging any headphones with a
1
4
"
headphone plug or adapter into the front-panel
Headphones Jack 3. The volume of the head-
phone output can be adjusted with the
Headphones
Level Control
4. Note that changing the headphone
level will not change the volume for the main audio
output. This is a fixed output and it is changed using
the volume control on your receiver, preamplifier or
surround processor.
