Recording in Pre rec mode
The DV824 features the "Pre recording" function (in this manual, we say "Pre
rec mode" for the DV824 status when the "Pre recording" function is active).
In the Pre rec mode, recording is made from the audio pooled in the buffer.
This prevents missing the start of a take. For example, if you press the [RECORD]
key a few seconds after an important interview starts, there is no problem.
Because the beginning part of the interview recorded in the buffer also can be
recorded to the disk.
By default, pre recording time of the buffer is set to ten seconds. Via the "Pre rec
time" menu item in the "SYS SETUP" menu of the MENU mode, you can set the
pre recording time to the desired time between one and ten seconds in one
second steps (
see page 120 for details ).
You can select On/Off of the Pre rec mode using the [PRE REC] key.
When it is set to On, the [PRE REC] indicator is lit. When Off, it is unlit.

Canceling recording (False Start)
If your recording take is not successfully made, you can cancel the take after
recording and clear the file from the disk by executing the "False start".
2) To cancel the most recent take, press the [ENTER/YES] key.
The display shows "Please wait!", followed by "Completed!", and returns to the
Home screen for the audio file which is recorded before the canceled file.
If you press the [EXIT/NO] key instead of the [ENTER/YES] key above, the display
returns to the Home screen for the most recently recorded audio file.
When canceling the take and clear the audio file, the name of the cleared audio
file is shown in the next file name field and the disk remaining time returns to the
value before the last recording is made.

executing False start or not.

back or switch to another audio file after recording.
Once you cancel the take and clear the file, you cannot restore it anymore.
• If you switch the hard disk partition after recording while the optional hard disk
drive is installed, you cannot execute the False start.
• You cannot execute the False start while the unit is in the "Auto Copy" mode (see
"Auto copy function" on page 83).
