If the unit is left in the record-pause
mode for more than 10 minutes
during digital recording
The record-pause mode will be released
automatically, and the unit will enter the
stop mode. (The "-DA" indicator appears
on the display.) In this case, press the
¶REC to set the unit to record-pause
mode.
If the cable is disconnected or the
program source is intermitted, the
digital input signal will be
interrupted during digital recording
The OPTICAL and 8 or COAXIAL and 8
indicators flash and the unit will enter
record-pause mode. (For about 10
minutes) If the digital signal is input again
in this period, the unit will enter recording
mode automatically.
Recording level adjustment (for
analog input signals only) Å
The peak level meters have a peak hold
function which indicates the peak level of
the analog input signal momentarily. The
MARGIN indicator shows how much
margin there is between the peak level of
the input audio signal and 0 dB. Whenever
a signal having a higher level than the
displayed one is input, the new level
replaces the lower one on the MARGIN
indicator.
Turn the REC LEVEL controls so that the
“OVER” segments do not light, even at the
highest level.
To reset the margin
Press the MARGIN RESET button. The
margin will become “- -”.
If the level exceeds 0 dB
The “OVER” segments light in red, and “0.0
dB” flashes.
If “OVER” lights steadily, lower the
recording level so that the peak level meter
lights between –12 dB (w) and 0 dB to
avoid sound distortion.
If you keep adjusting the recording
level with the unit in the record-
pause mode
If the unit is left in the record-pause mode
for more than 10 minutes, the record-pause
mode will be released automatically, and
the unit will enter the stop mode.
The levels of the input audio signals
appear even in the stop mode, and you
can continue to adjust the recording level.
(The "AD-DA" indicator appears on the
display.)
In the above case, press the ¶REC button
again to set the unit to record-pause mode.
