Loop Recording

You can also loop record material. To loop record material, you set up a record
buffer that will allow you to record for a length of time. When you reach the
end of the record buffer, the current position moves back to the beginning of the
buffer and previously recorded material is overwritten. The steps for loop
recording are as follows:

1. Choose

Config | Record Buffer

and the Record Buffer dialog box appears.

The maximum record time reflects time allocated to all activated buffers and
time allocated to the channel and available record time on the Profile unit.
