3 - Resume setting

 

3–2

 

 TASCAM MD-801R/P Mk II

 

The minimum length for the jog loop is 12 frames, 
and the maximum value is 32 frames. The value is set 
in 1-frame steps.

 

3.6 Resume setting

 

When the resume setting is turned on, playback 
restarts from the point at which it was stopped (or the 
point at which playback was taking place when the 
power was cut off). The default is off, which means 
that when playback is stopped, it will start at the 
beginning of the disc, unless a track number is 
explicitly specified.

This function, when on, changes the function of the 

 

STOP

 

 key 

 

[5]

 

. When the resume function is on, and 

the 

 

STOP

 

 key is pressed in play mode, the MD-801 

enters play ready mode. If the 

 

STOP

 

 key is pressed 

once again, the MD-801 enters stop mode.

After the menu has been opened with the 

 

SHUTTLE

 

 

wheel, the display changes:

The options available are on and off.

 

3.7 EOM disc

 

This menu item affects the output of the MD-801 to a 
device attached to the parallel port (see 7.1, 
"REMOTE (PARALLEL) connector". When set on, 
an “EOM DISC” tally signal is transmitted from the 
parallel port when the end of the disc is reached in 
playback (or recording, in the case of the MD-801R).

When this message is transmitted, the 

 

E O M

 

 indicator 

flashes in the display.

In this menu, it is possible to select how many sec-
onds before the end of the disc this message is to be 
sent, or to turn the message off completely. The 
default setting is off.

After the menu has been opened with the 

 

SHUTTLE

 

 

wheel, the display changes:

The time may be set from 1 to 99 seconds, in 1 sec-
ond steps, or set to off.

 

NOTE

 

The EOM tally signal is always transmitted 
when the U-TOC is updated as the result of a 
recording operation having been completed, 
unless this setting is set to off. It is also trans-

 

mitted when recording is halted temporarily.

 

3.8 EOM track

 

The EOM track is similar to the EOM disc function, 
as described above. The EOM tally signal is trans-
mitted before the end of a track playback, and this 
menu allows the time before the end to be set, or the 
disabling of this function (default off).

When this message is transmitted, the 

 

E O M

 

 indicator 

flashes in the display.

After the menu has been opened with the 

 

SHUTTLE

 

 

wheel, the display changes:

The time may be set from 1 to 99 seconds, in 1 sec-
ond steps, or set to off.

 

3.9 Timer-controlled playback

 

When this function is enabled, if a disc is in the unit, 
and the unit is powered up (e.g. from a timer-based 
switching unit), the TOC is read, and playback starts. 
The default setting is off.

If the resume function is switched on (3.6, "Resume 
setting") playback will start from the point at which 
playback was last stopped, or at the playback point at 
which the power was last cut off.

If the resume function is off, playback will start from 
the beginning of the disc.

After the menu has been opened with the 

 

SHUTTLE

 

 

wheel, the display changes:

The options available are on and off.
