Playback using the Vari-pitch function

Vari-pitch function procedures

4. Set the desired pitch data using the JOG dial.

Rotating the JOG dial enables you to hear changes in playback
speed. Rotating the dial clockwise increases the speed, and
rotating it counter-clockwise decreases the speed.

To continue the playback with the Vari Pitch function on, press
the EXIT/NO key.
This recorder exits Vari Pitch data edit mode, indicates the
previous Time Base display, and continues playing with the
Vari Pitch you just set.

5. To turn off Vari Pitch mode, press the VARI PITCH

key.

The VARI PITCH LED turns off, the Vari Pitch function is
cancelled, and this recorder resumes playback at normal
speed.

Initialize the recorder.

6. If you wish to play back data at the current Vari

Pitch again, press the VARI PITCH key to turn
the LED on.

You can turn the Vari Pitch function on and off and edit the
pitch data while this recorder is playing or stopped, but not
during recording.
However, if the Vari Pitch function has already been turned
on and the pitch data was specified before you started
recording, this recorder will record using the current Vari
Pitch.

• Even if the pitch data is 0.0% (no speed change),

pressing the VARI PITCH key will still turn on the
VARI PITCH function.
The speed is not changed, but the Vari Pitch is
turned on.

• The Vari Pitch function is automatically turned off

under the following conditions:

1. You have turned off and on the power to this recorder.

The pitch data will be reset to 0.0%.

2. You must press the EXECUTE/YES key while holding

down the SHIFT key to turn the "SLAVE mode" on (the
setting pitch data remains).

3. You set "Digital In" of the SETUP mode to a “Sync” mode

("SPDIF Sync" or "adat Sync") and the recorder is lock-
ing to the external clock from DIGITAL IN or WORD IN.
In consequence, [DIGITAL] and [EXT SYNC] indicators
light in the display.
