You can record timecode generated by the internal timecode generator together with audio
simultaneously.
This section describe
s settings and operations for timecode recording. See
"Chapter 4: Audio re-
cording/playback" for details about settings and operations for audio recording.
The following description assumes that one of the
[AUDIO RDY]
key indicators (
[NEW FILE]
or
[INSERT]
) is lit.

Timecode starts from the current time of the internal clock of the unit.
When recording timecode to a new file, the generator records timecode from the value which
continues to the last timecode value of the previous audio file. You can also use this mode for
restriping discontinuous timecode.
Runs the internal generator by the free run mode, and records the current internal generator
time as the start time.
The external timecode value is recorded as the start time.
3. Press the [TC RDY] key to arm the timecode track.
The TC RDY indicator is lit while
"TC RDY"
is shown on the display.
4. After pressing the [SHIFT] key to make the SHIFT mode active, press the [CHASE/SETUP] key to enter
the TC SETUP mode, then preset the internal timecode generator time if necessary.
See page 5-6 for details about how to preset the internal timecode generator time.
<Note>
Unlike timecode striped on an audio or video tape, timecode on a disk is not striped from the
beginning to the end. Only the offset between the ABS time and timecode at the recording start
point is recorded.
Therefore, if you record a discontinuous timecode value in the middle, the unit cannot recog-
nize it. Also, the user bit when timecode starts recording is valid throughout the timecode, so
the unit cannot handle the user bit that changes in the middle.
1. Set the [FRAME RATE] switch appropriately according to timecode to be recorded.
2. Set the [TC GEN MODE] switch appropriately according to the situation.
