Automatically Starting Recording When Sound Begins
You can have the CD-2 start recording when it detects sound
that is louder than a specified level.
If you start recording the usual way, by pressing a button, a
length of silence will be recorded until you begin playing your
instrument. However, if you use the CD-2’s Auto Rec Start
function, recording will start automatically in response to
your voice or instrument, letting you record without creating
a length of silence at the beginning of the track.
HINT
If you record on a CF card, you can delete unwanted
silence at the beginning of the track after you’re finished
recording ( Page 60).
MEMO
The Auto Rec Start function will not operate if you’ve
enabled a count-in ( Page 53). You must turn the
count-in “Off.”
