Things

You

Should

Know

Before

The

difference

between

a

blank

section

and

a

sound-muted

section

The

deck

distinguishes

between

two

kinds

of

silent

sections,

which

are

respectively

called

a

“blank

section”

or

“sound-muted

section”.

Blank

This

is

a

section

on

which

no

signal

has

ever

been

recorded.

Blank
