PILOT 2000 USER GUIDE
5. To PLAY-BACK the track, you must hold down <PLAY> key and then press the
track’s key you just recorded, exactly at the time you pressed the same key when
you record the track (this is important to obtain a good synchronization with music,
for example). The play-back will stop automatically when the track reaches its end.
However, you can stop it any time by holding down <PLAY> and pressing the track
key. On release 2.00 you can choose to work in SINGLE or LOOPING PLAY
through the setup menu.
EXTERNAL TIMING
To use the Pilot 2000 as a slave of an SMPTE device, just connect it, through a 3 pin XLR
cable, to an SMPTE source (video recorder, computer, ...) and then proceed as follows:
1. Set the starting time in the source and put it in “pause” (example: if you have a tape
of 120 minutes, you can set 01:23:45:00...).
2. Press and hold down keys <ENTER> & <PLAY> for at least 4 seconds, until the led
blinks.
3. Press a key from the Multi Function Keyboard (1...20) selecting the track to record.
If the track was already done, then it will be replaced.
4. When you are ready, you can “PLAY” the source (video recorder, ...) and proceed
to record your show selecting the output memory for each show period.
5. When you want to STOP the recording, hold down the <PLAY> key and press
again the track key you selected previously.
To PLAY-BACK the track, you must rewind your source (to the previous starting position),
put it in pause and then hold down <PLAY> key and the press the track key you just
recorded. The play-back will stop automatically when the track reaches its end.
However, you can stop it any time holding down <PLAY> and pressing the track key.
