Is it programmable (will it play only the tracks I choose)? Does it shuffle?

I have only used the player to play regular music CDs and play them from beginning to end. However, the owner's manual lists three additional playback modes. There is a random playback mode where all of the files on the disc are played in random order. There is a memory playback mode in which you can make a playback list of up to 25 files. There is a repeat mode. In the repeat playback mode, you can play an entire CD repeatedly, play one track repeatedly, or combine it with the memory playback to play the playlist repeatedly or random playback to play all of the tracks on the disc in random order repeatedly.

It has "Track Programming" which means you can tell it which tracks to play. Shuffle mode allows you to randomize songs from several disks and since this is a single disc player that's not possible.

Yes as to both. You can program the tracks for an individual CD or use the remote to skip. There is also a "random" feature which plays the tracks in, well, random order.

There is memory playback for audio CDs and MP3/WMA CDs (up to 25 files). There is random playback.

Regardless of music being in folders or not, there's no "Random-Play" option. The speaker DOES remember last song played and resumes from that one. The sound is amazing for a little thing like that. Excellent for laptops' and tablets' speakers.

Nope, it doesn't even shuffle. Its "touch screen" is really a screen that only responds to a little stylus that comes with the player and that doesn't work well either. this thing is pretty crappy. i wouldn't waste the money. for about the same money, i picked up a Sandisk MP3 player that is much better. it's only a little bigger than an ipod nano, it fits on the armband that i used with my nano and it has lasted a lot longer. plus, it has an sd slot to add memory. the eclipse is junk. stay away from it.

i have a older mp3 and it has a shuffle option and that's great but it plays the songs in the same shuffle order every time. sounds funny I have 900 songs in mine but have listened to it for so long I can almost tell u what song is coming on next!

No. But U can play music from a memory card. No shuffling or playlist access features.It's a nice little amp for a fair price and the remote works well.

As you haves been told, the is no shuffle. It will play songs in the order that you put them paws the SD card, or if they are in folders, the order that you put the folders on. If the battery dies it will reset to the first song on the drive, but if you don't let it die, it will continue where it stopped.

One disc at a time. It is not multi-disc. I you have a disc with a lot of songs, I believe you can program the disc to play a number of songs out of order.

I put 5 CDs in, punch go and it plays them all without further attention. As for selecting Tracks? never tried. Fred

I had the same question beforehand and never got a straight answer. As far as I can tell there is NO shuffle/random function on the unit. When playing songs off the SD card it always plays them in the same (alphabetical) order. The "Repeat" button just turns the repeat function off and on, and the "Mode" button just changes the input. There is no mention of a "shuffle" function in the instructions. The lack of a shuffle/random function is the only criticism I have though...otherwise it is a great little device.

Yes it does. Under the system section, music settings, then the repeat mode and there you have the choice of repeat mode, shuffle mode, or EQ select.

Yes, the D-M395 can be programed to play up to 25 tracks in any desired order. Once programed these tracks can then be played random, repeat or in the order you originally programed them. In order to program it however, you must use the remote control unit, as there is no keypad on the main unit.

No, you have to remember the order the songs are in when shuffle isn't activated

I don't think so....it just plays the songs as listed on the card. When I turn it off and on again it usually start from the first song on my list. It would of been cool to have the shuffle/random function though.....but its still a great device.

Yes you can choose album,artist or specific song or you can put it on shuffle if you want

I think there might be a shuffle setting but it is very difficult to see the name of the songs. Whatever order you have your songs listed in a folder, is the order that they play. I found the interface difficult to navigate. I bought this for my 3yr old and decided to return it.

no, once you choose one that is the one you are in, it doesn't go to the next artist or album in sequence. (And won't skip to a new artist or album even if you shuffle.) The way to include many and various is to create a playlist and then shuffle that if you'd like, so it skips around and mixes it up.

It is very easy you just go to play modes and click shuffle. You can also set what artist or genre and also play everything including internal and external then shuffle it all. Can't rate this DAP highly enough.
