Variable Pitch Control
This section describes the Variable Pitch Control feature to play or record programs at variable recorder speeds.
The VF-16 can change the speed in 0.1% units within a +/-6.0% range. Note that the key changes when changing
the variable pitch speed.
Variable Pitch Control ON/OFF
* Press the [VARI PITCH] key.
The key lights up GREEN. This means the feature is ON.
* Press the [VARI PITCH] key once again.
The key lights OFF. This means that the feature is OFF.
The variable pitch control can be turned ON/OFF when
the recorder is in the STOP/PLAY modes. Variable pitch
control is not available when the recorder is recording,
even though the key is pressed.
Setting the Speed
Note that the speed can be set only in the recorder
STOP or PLAY mode. It cannot be changed when the
recorder is recording. By playing back a program with
the variable pitch control ON it is possible to adjust
the speech while monitoring the changes.
1. Put the recorder in the STOP or PLAY mode. Press the
[VARI PITCH/P.EDIT] key while the [SHIFT] key is
depressed.
The current setting appears on the LCD and “%” flashes.
This means that the recorder is ready to edit with the
variable pitch control feature.
Variable pitch control ON/OFF alternates between ON and
OFF each time the [VARI PITCH] key is pressed in this state.
“ ” or “ ” lights up.
* You can turn ON the variable pitch function by
pressing the [VARI PITCH] key, even when the current
pitch data is 0.0% (state where there is no change in
speed). However, this does not mean that there is any
change in speed in this state. It simply means that the
variable pitch function is ON.
* The variable pitch is automatically turned OFF in the
following cases:
1 . When the power is turned ON again. (the pitch data
is reset to 0.0% at this time)
2 . When the [Slave Mode On/Off Setting] of the SETUP
mode is turned ON. (previously set pitch data are
saved)
3 . When “ ” and “ ” lights up on the display
while the [Digital Input Setting] in the SETUP mode
is set to “S/P DIF” or “adat”.
