Another Sanyo, this one from 1983 boasts a 4 band tuner, 10 step VU/Sound Level LED display and AMSS, aka automatic music search. What’s AMSS? It’s a “smart” feature that allows you to rewind or fast forward through songs, then stopping just before the next one begins (similar to skipping through a CD’s tracks). It’s nothing more than a noise detection mechanism, that stops the motors when the player hits a spot on the tape with no audio.
