–20db, –30db or –40db (AUTO REC)
The unit will automatically insert a track division in the
recorded material when the sound level has dropped below
the threshold for more than 2 seconds, and sound has re-
started.
“–20db” takes a louder signal to trigger the track increment.
“–40db” means that a relatively quiet signal will trigger the
track increment. “–40db” is suitable for recording a noiseless
source such as a CD.
< AUTO REC may not work properly with analog sources that
contain low-level noises.
< The AUTO indicator lights when –20dB, –30dB or –40dB is
selected.
< The default setting is MANUAL (off). When the unit is turned
on, the setting is automatically reset to MANUAL (off).
