MS250

Advanced features

Zones

The MS250 has four ‘zoned’ outputs, so you can send different music streams to different zones. For

example, you might play the currently inserted CD to Zone 1, an Internet radio stream to Zone 2, a

playlist on the MS250’s hard drive to Zone 3 and music from one of the two Aux inputs to Zone 4. For

example:

To play the current CD to Zone 1, select Music, CD, Tracks and select the tracks you want to

play, then press the

ZONE button to select Z1, then press PLAY.

To play an Internet radio stream to Zone 2, select the Internet radio station, press the ZONE

button to select ‘Z2’, then press

PLAY.

External audio sources

The MS250 has two auxiliary audio inputs. You can connect a line-level device (such as a MiniDisc player

or radio tuner) to each of these inputs. Once you have connected an auxiliary audio input device, you

can:

route the audio to any one of the MS250’s four zones (see ‘Zones’ above)

record the audio stream onto the MS250’s hard disk.

Routing audio from an external source to a zone

As an example, to route audio from AUX INPUT 2 to Zone 4, select Aux in from the MUSIC-SOURCE

menu, then select Aux input 2 in Play.

To do this from the remote, press the

ZONE button until Z4 is highlighted, then press the INPUT 2

button, then press

or OK.

Recording audio from an external source to the hard disk

You can record audio from an external source onto the MS250’s hard disk. This type of audio is always

recorded uncompressed.

For example, to record audio from Aux input 1 to the hard disk:

1. Select Music

)

Aux in

)

Play

2. Cue the device connected to the Aux 1 input so that it is ready to play your chosen music.

3. Select Music

)

Aux in

)

Record.

4. Start the music playing on the external audio device.

5. When you’re done, select Music

)

Aux in and press

to end recording.

You’ll see a message telling you the name of the track to which the audio has been saved (you

might want to make a note of this, so it’s easy to nd later):

Recordings are stored under the genre ‘Recordings’.

Working with recorded tracks

Once you have recorded a track from an external source to the hard disk, you can perform any of the

standard operations on it (e.g. play it, rename it or delete it). A sensible rst step is to rename any

recorded tracks.

1. Search for the tracks you’re interested in – select Music

)

Stored music

)

Search and press

OK.

2. Enter part of the track name (e.g. enter ‘Line 1’ to search for all the tracks recorded from

AUX

INPUT 1) then go back and select Tracks on the MUSIC-SEARCH menu screen.

3. From the resulting list, select the tracks you’re interested in.

4. From the menu, perform any of the standard track functions (e.g. Add to playlist, Edit tracks).

Playing music stored on a portable MP3 player or other USB

storage device

To play music stored on an MP3 player or other USB storage device:

1. Connect the device to a USB port on the MS250. The music sever will

automatically scan the device to check for music les already stored on it. This

could take a few minutes.

2. Navigate to the STORED MUSIC menu page and select Look in from the left-

hand window of the menu.

3. Choose the device that contains the music you’d like to play and press

OK.

You can now search for tracks and play them in the usual way.

Playing music over the network

The MS250 can play music stored on a PC on your network. To do this:

‘Share’ a logical disk on your PC. Refer to your computer’s documentation to nd out how to

make the PC’s hard disk available in this way.

Tell the MS250 to look in this disk for music les. This is done via the ‘System and user settings’

menus described earlier.

If you have a large number of music les on your computer, set aside some time for the MS250 to locate

them all and register them in its database.
