Recording Operations
3-856-761-11(2)
The segments of the peak level meters
corresponding to the maximum signal strength
remain lit longer than normal.
The MARGIN indication shows the margin
between maximum signal strength and 0 dB,
changing each time a stronger signal.
Recording Operations
For basic recording operations, see pages 6 and 7.
Things You Should Know
Before Recording
The difference between a blank section and
a sound-muted section
The deck distinguishes between two kinds of silent
sections, which are respectively called a “blank
section” or “sound-muted section”.
Blank section
This is a section on which no signal has ever been recorded.
If “EMPHASIS” appears in the display
The deck is recording a digital signal with emphasis (in
the higher frequencies). The recording will also
contain the same emphasis.
If the deck is left in recording pause for
more than 10 minutes
Recording pause will be released automatically, the
deck will stop and “SOURCE” will appear in the
display.
To resume recording, press the REC r button. The
deck will change to recording pause.
When using a new tape
Before you record on a new tape, we recommend that
you fast forward the whole tape and then rewind to the
beginning to make the tape reel smoothly.
Adjusting the Recording Level
for Analog Recording
Before you start recording an analog source through
ANALOG (LINE) IN, set the INPUT switch to
ANALOG and adjust the recording level.

Important
Make sure no blank sections are created while you are
recording. The existence of blank sections within
recorded material will make search operations using
the PREVIOUS =/NEXT + buttons impossible or
destroy the continuity of the absolute time codes.
z If you press the REC r button while in a blank
section
The deck automatically rewinds the tape to the
beginning of the blank section and changes to recording
pause (except during Timer Recording).
Absolute time codes
Absolute time codes indicate the elapsed time from the
beginning of the tape. These codes are automatically
recorded. Note that once recorded, absolute time
codes cannot be re-written.
For accurate recording of absolute time codes
• If the tape is blank, make sure to start recording from the
beginning of the tape.
• Use Record Muting (see page 11) to insert spaces between
tracks. Do not advance the tape with the PLAY ( or
FF ) button.
• To start recording from the middle of a tape, use End
Search (see page 10) to locate the end of the recorded
portion. This will prevent the creation of blank sections.
