Edit Marker Submenu
The Edit Marker submenu allows adjustment of two parameters.
Direct Mark
It is not always possible to capture a cue point with the
necessary accuracy. Once a Marker point has been created (by
pressing ENTER during PLAY mode), its position may be edited
with frame accuracy.
The Direct Mark option in the Edit Marker submenu displays
the stored location of the cue point, as in the example above.
The first digit is the drive number (1 or 2) and the next three
characters (nnt) the track number. The remainder of the data is
the track time in minutes, seconds and frames.
Pressing ENTER to select the displayed location (the bottom
row of the menu display) first highlights the drive number;
subsequent presses highlight the track number, minutes,
seconds and frames in turn. At each step, the AMS control
may be rotated to alter the selected element of the cue point
location.
Audio preview is available from within this menu option by
pressing the front-panel CUE button; this enables the edited cue
position to be auditioned without exiting the menu.
Auto-Cue Threshold
Cueing to a track start point with the AMS control is often
insufficiently accurate, as a period of silence may be present on
the disc before the programme material begins. The CDR-882’s
Auto-Cue function can be used to cue more accurately; it
effectively removes any period of silence that might be present
at the start of the track.
With AUTO-CUE selected on the front panel, the cue point is
advanced beyond the notional track start point to the point at
which the audio level rises above a preset threshold, ensuring
that programme plays immediately on pressing the PLAY/
PAUSE button.
The audio level which defines the Auto-Cue point can be set in
the Auto-Cue Threshold menu option. It is adjustable from
-72dBFS to -24dBFS in 6dB increments.
DiscSpan Submenu
The DiscSpan submenu has five parameters for adjustment.
Multi-Machine
This option simply allows activation of the CDR-882’s multi-
machine mode, and has two options, On and Off. The factory
default setting is Off. This option needs to be set to On if
additional CDR-882’s are connected to the unit’s RS232 Link
Output port to increase recording capacity.
Note that this submenu will not be available if no additional
machines are connected.
Master/Slave
In a multi-machine set-up, only one machine can be designated
the Master, and this controls any other machines connected to
it - the Slaves - through the RS232 Link Output port.
Whether a particular unit is the Master or a Slave is set at the
Master/Slave menu option. The two settings are simply Master
or Slave. The factory default setting is Master.
Note that this submenu will not be available if no additional
machines are connected.
Fade-in Time
In DiscSpan modes, the audio record level for each disc is faded
up at the start of the disc, as recording is “handed over” from
one drive to the other. The length of this fade-in is adjusted in
this menu option, and can be from 1 to 10 seconds, adjustable
in 1 second increments. The factory default value is 4 seconds.
