It all comes down to price. People didn't want to pay extra for the index buttons to search the sub-index because very few CDs actually used sub-index. I think the only discs that I own that use the sub index with some of the fresh air desks by Mannheim steamroller. They may have been some classical discs as well but I wasn't a big collector of classical. I was more limited to rock jazz fusion new age and the Manheim steamroller series which I have all five. The buying public wanted cheaper devices and if the manufacturers could shave a penny or two off the cost of each unit by eliminating those buttons for index they were going to do it because it was a little used feature some left the buttons on the remote for a period of time but even those became very basic. It's all about cost and the big problem is as soon as one company offers a cheaper less feature laden version everybody else jumps on the same bandwagon because they're all chasing the same customers and the majority of customers aren't looking for those features they're looking for price.

This is one of the fastest Sony cd players I have ever seen. I love the design. The front panel is made of plastic but looks really high-grade.I was lucky to find one CDP-55 without any electrical problems. My unit only needed a new belt for the loading mechanism that requires an extra grip after closing the tray to move the clamp down. I stretched the spring on the downside of the tray a little bit to reduce the resistance. It's a lot easier to change the belt if you remove the front panel to take the tray out.

This series of Sony CD players had an issue that the spring on the back of the loading tray mechanism hardens over time. If no CD is inserted for some time. the spring will harden. After the tray closes, the disk clamp won't close completely, or lock up. The fix is to remove the spring and cycle it, stretch it out so it regains its springiness. You remove this particular spring at 25:42.
@12voltvids7 жыл бұрын
That's right. The disk chucking spring. They were actually too tight at the factory. If you noticed this one had already been stretched out slightly.

Right, it was a great feature, and underused. One album that they should have used it on, but didn't was Jean Michel Jarre, Oxygen, Equanox and Magnetic Fields. Especially oxygen. Nothing more annoying that having that CD in the jukebox, set in random mode and it crashes in on a track half way through, or cuts off half way through because the disk engineer formatted as tracks (with no space between) as opposed to using the index, so when a player is set to random it plays the entire track as it was supposed to be heard on the album a full side at a time. I ended up ripping the tracks, and stitching them together to make side 1 and side 2 play out as a single track.

23:38 There shouldn't be a pause between tracks - at least on a good CD player. A Red Book audio CD is basically a stream of PCM audio samples (with some extra data sprinkled in for error correction and the subcode, which basically stores the timecode of the CD, there are 75 timecode "markers" per second). There's no "gap" in audio between tracks. ' All a CD player would need to do if you reach the end of track 1 and start track 2 would be just to update the display to say it's playing track 2. it's not like a collection of MP3 files where your MP3 player has to stop playing the track, open the new track, load it into memory, and etc. It's a continuous stream of audio data.
@12voltvids4 жыл бұрын
It all depends on how the disk is authored. The vast majority of authoring programs insert 2 seconds of space between tracks, and during that 2 seconds the index is set to 0. Some, such as Dark side of the moon change tracks with no space so they flow together. When I author an audio CD, by default the authoring software will put the 2 second gap between tracks but I can set that to zero. When burning say 20 tracks to a disk, thats an extra 42 seconds for audio, the 2 second start gap and 2 seconds between each track. I have no idea why they chose 2 seconds, perhaps for cheap CD players when searching backtracks so they didn't land on the last note of the previous track. Also there are 100 frames every 3 seconds of play time, so 33 frames for the first 2 seconds and 34 for the 3rd second. This is the same as DAT which was used as a mastering format for CD, and the data on a DAT tape is exactly the same as on a CD

The only CDs I have that used it was a few of the Mangeim Steamroller Fresh Aire CDs. There are a few that should have used it. Dark Side of the Moon for example, and the 3 classics by Jean Michele Jarre, Oxygene, Equinox and Magnetic fields, because the tracks blend together, and there was no gap between the tracks on the vinyl. Even at the band spacing on the vinyl, there was music, the needle just dropped into sound. On the CD release it causes an annoying gap between the tracks.

Invisible Touch has a track that takes advantage of the index feature. That's the only CD I have that does that.

12voltvids didn't the first CD run of Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here have indexing?

You have Linn, but no Stereophile Test CD2 - from Track 15 it's all but Indexing. Actually very useful CD with test tones and other signals.

@@12voltvids You listen to Jaen-Michel Jarre and you had it on vinyl - wow, you must be one the very few Canadians, everyone else is making fun of me. Do you have Equinox by chance? Yes, I'm getting old too, but I still like my music from teenage years. I'm not really crazy about the new 'Re-Mastered' albums or Euro with 15dB Compressor-Limiter build into the music. Comes as J.B.L. on my spkrs, but almost everyone clips the waveforms today - you know what I mean.

I'm slightly disappointed - not because you were using solder wick, but because I was hoping you were going to use it to temporarily short across the fuses. lol Hey, that's what the current limiting on the regulators is for, right? ;)

ElectronAsh Oh you mean like EVERY shop did? Yes I remember very well little jumpers across icps on many things.

No sir I would rather sacrifice a few fuses than cause a explosion

YUKI JINJUJI Of course. ;) It was more of an in-joke though, as I have done similar things before when working on my own gear, and it's a "trick" often used in repair shops when temporarily testing things. Obviously not a very clever idea unless you know why the fuse popped in the first place, but there are ways to test the circuit before using a temporary wire bridge.

Pretty sure the assholes are people in the service industry pissed off that their trade secrets are being shown off. I am sure if I was still trying to make a living doing this I wouldn't be happy if another tech decided to start showing people how to do it themselves. Back when I was in service, all the local techs would share tips with each other, but we would never fix anything when the customer was watching, because we didn't want them learning our trade secrets and then fixing their friends stuff. But times change. I don't make a living doing this anymore, and I am still in demand, so I make a little fixing stuff, and make much more teaching others how to do it here.
