When the RECORD button is pressed, DigiCart/E will:
Turn on the Input Monitor function and enter the Record Ready mode. The LED meters will be active

Pressing the PLAY button will initiate recording and illuminate the PLAY button. If a threshold level is
set, recording will actually begin when the audio level exceeds the threshold level setting.
Audio will be recorded at the sampling rate and recording format currently selected in the SETUP MENU.
If using digital inputs, the sampling rate will be automatically set at the same sampling rate as that of the
incoming signal, unless Sample Rate Conversion is selected.
The RECORD Button in Edit Mode
When in Edit mode, the RECORD button is used to place or relocate a Secondary Cue. A Secondary
Cue is a signal used for control applications. When playing a cut while Edit is active, both the press
and release of the
RECORD button are stored and determine the duration of the Secondary Cue. The
RECORD button will illuminate when pressed and throughout the duration of a Secondary Cue.
Secondary Cues will be activated when playing outside of Edit mode, but there is no front panel
indication. Only one Secondary Cue can be recorded per cut. To change the timing of a Secondary
Cue, simply re-record it. To delete it from the selected cut, hold
RECORD and press EXIT while in
Edit mode. See Appendix A for Secondary Cue GPI/O wiring details.
