ABSTRACT:
A compact disk (CD) changer includes a magazine for storing carriages each capable of carrying a CD. The carriages with the corresponding CDs are selectively removed from the magazine when a selection key is pressed. A drive transports carriages and their associated CDs between an eject position where the CD is accessible for changing and a storage position in the magazine. A carriage and CD in the tray when it is in the eject position can be replaced by a selected carriage and CD by pressing a single selection key. The carriage and CD in the tray are transported to the magazine and the selected carriage and CD removed from the magazine. The tray is then automatically transported back to the eject position.
