Recording Instructions (Terminal Rec)
Select either stereo recording or mono recording.
Choosing mono recording gives you recording times that are twice as long as
with stereo recording.
Selecting Recording Type
With the power to the AR-200S turned off, set the REC MODE switches on the
bottom panel as shown below.
What is mono recording
In the case of mono recording, input the audio signal to the “MONO/L” input
terminal. When audio signals are input simultaneously to the “MONO/L” and
“R” input terminals, L and R are mixed and recorded.
Line Thru Output (p. 19)
REC MODE SW 6: OFF (Mono)
When audio signals are input to “MONO/L,” output is from OUTPUT L
and R. When audio signals are input to “R,” output is from OUTPUT R
only. When audio signals are input to both “MONO/L” and “R,” solely
the signals input to “MONO/L” are output from OUTPUT L, while the
“MONO/L” and “R” signals are mixed and output from OUTPUT R.
REC MODE SW 6: ON (Stereo)
Audio signals input to “MONO/L” are output from OUTPUT L, and
audio signals input to “R” are output from OUTPUT R.
You can specify phrases by inputting binary (base 2) signals to the Port Nos. 1
through 8, and perform record, playback, and delete functions by inputting
control signals to Port Nos. 9 and 10. A total of 250 phrases can be specified
with control signals (On/Off). This is convenient when you want to control
recording from an external control device.
fig.CtrIn-Rec01.e
* To conduct binary control, you need to provide a control device that can generate
binary signals.
fig.CtrIn-RecPin.e
Phrases are specified by combinations of signals of 0 (Off) and 1 (On) to the
Port Nos. 1 through 8 as well as Port Nos. 11 and 12, and record, playback, and
delete functions are specified with combinations of control signals of 0 (Off)
and 1 (On) to Port Nos. 9 and 10.
Presence or Absence of Phrases
If there is a binary-specified phrase that has already been recorded, a signal is
output from the CONT OUT connector (Port No. 15). If there is an empty
phrase, no signal is output.
* During Terminal Rec, the CONT OUT connector functions as a connector for
signals confirming the presence or absence of phrases. Note that this differs from
the normal function of CONT OUT.
fig.CtrIn-Rec02.e
Recording
9: 0 (Off)
10: 1 (On)
While control signals are being input, the specified phrase is recorded. When
input of the control signal stops, recording then ends.
fig.CtrIn-Rec03.e
* Recording does not start if there is a binary-specified phrase that has already
been recorded (the recording instruction is disabled). When recording, either
specify an empty phrase or delete the existing phrase before recording the new
one. Additionally, in Terminal Rec, since a make signal is output from the
CONT OUT connector when a specified phrase has already been recorded, this
allows confirmation using a connected external control device.
* The remaining recording time appears in the display when ten seconds or less of
recording time remains.
* When you’re using the Terminal Recording Mode, recording takes place
immediately, without entering trigger recording standby.
* Use the INPUT VOLUME knob to adjust the recording level so that the PLAY/
CLIP indicator does not light.
