Abstract

Abstract In CDs, LVDs, DATs and so forth, scanning reproduction is made from a section of an information piece after a fixed time (a fixed number of tracks) lapse from the start rather than reproducing from the start of each information pieces. In these intermediate sections are entered, for example, vocals, and therefore the operator can select a desired information piece easily.
