n Record/Playback Operation

ML2502 has two record/playback modes, Dual-phrase record/playback mode and Single-

phrase record/playback mode.

While in Dual-phrase record/playback mode the total memory

space is divided evenly into two areas for 2-phrase record/playback, the entire memory space

is used for one phrase record/playback in Single-phrase record/playback mode.

In Dual-phrase record/playback mode the first half of the memory, i.e. from the top address up

to the center address, is assigned to Phrase 1, and the second half, i.e. from the center

address to the last address, is assigned to Phrase 2.

Record/playback of Phrase 1 can be

controlled via the REC1 and PLAY1 pins, while Phrase 2 can be controlled via the REC2 and

PLAY2 pins respectively.

In Single-phrase mode record/playback must be performed with the REC1 being connected to

the REC2 pin and the PLAY1 being connected to the PLAY2 pin respectively.

In both playback modes repetitive playback function for the same phrase is available.
