5 Recording Features

En

Recording fade ins and fade outs

Sometimes, for example if you're recording just an excerpt from
something, it may be better to fade in the recording, then fade out
again at the end, rather than start and end abruptly. You can also
set longer or shorter fade times so that they match the fades on
other songs in your mix. Note that you can’t record a fade in when
in synchro recording mode (although you can record a fade out).

Setting the fade length

1

Press MENU/DELETE.

2

Turn the jog dial (

4 and ¢ on

the remote) until FADER TIME ap-
pears in the display, then press to
ENTER.

3

Use the jog dial (

4 and ¢ on the

remote) to set the length of the fade
(in seconds).

Each turn will take you forward (or back) one second. The
default is 5 seconds.

4

Press the jog dial (ENTER) to confirm
the new fade length.

Recording a fade in

With the source playing, press FADER
during record-pause mode to fade in.
Recording starts with a gradual fade
in.

Recording a fade out

Press FADER during recording to fade
out.

After recording the fade out, the recorder goes into record-
pause mode. This happens in either normal or synchro
record mode.

• You can also just press

7 if you don’t need a fade out.

If you record a fade out during all-track sync mode, the
synchro mode is canceled after the fade out (see pages 39–
42 for more on synchro recording).

Automatically numbering tracks

You can record from any source, letting the recorder number the
tracks automatically. From a digital source (CD, MD, DAT, or DCC),
the recorder will start new tracks as they change on the source
material. When recording other sources, the recorder will start a
new track if it detects more than 2 seconds of silence before the next
sound on the source. You can adjust the level that the recorder
regards as “silence” (see Setting the silence threshold below).

1

Press MENU/DELETE.

2

Turn the jog dial (

4 and ¢ on the

remote) until AUTO TRACK appears
in the display, then press to ENTER.

The display shows either

ON

or

OFF

.

is the default.

3

Turn the jog dial (

4 and ¢ on the

remote)to switch AUTO TRACK ON
or OFF.

Press the jog dial to ENTER.

To check that tracks will start at the correct points on the
recording, see Monitoring a source for recording on page
