tor ("PLAY1" and "PLAY2" messages will also be sent from the PARALLEL I/O
connector. See the "Parallel I/O timing chart" on page 35 for details). This allows
the simultaneous start of source machines capable of receiving these com
mands.
A rehearsal mode is provided to check that the source machine is correctly lo
cated prior to actual recording.
With the STDBY key lit, press the REHEARSAL key, which will light the rehears
al indicator
When the REHEARSAL indicator is lit and REC and PLAY are pressed together,
a "PLAY" command is transmitted from the REMOTE connector (the parallel
connector will also transmit "PLAY1" and "PLAY2" messages), the PLAY key
lights, and the REC key flashes. The controller display will count from "-02" to
"-01" to "-00" to "00" and then start counting upwards.
This "pseudo-record" mode will be maintained for 10 seconds. No transport
keys except the STOP key will have any function at this time.
The start of the program material should follow closely after the controller dis
play reaches
"XX 01 0000".
After 10 seconds, the REC and PLAY lights go out, and a "STOP" command is
sent from the REMOTE and the PARALLEL I/O connectors.
Re-locate the source to the start (adjusting the locate point if necessary). Further
rehearsals can be carried out as long as the REHEARSAL indicator and the STD
BY key are both lit.
Levels
Make sure that the loudest part of the program material lights the "0" segment
of the controller's meters, but does not light the "OVER" segment. This does not
have to be done in rehearsal mode, but should be done before a recording on
disc is made, to avoid digital clipping.
To turn off the rehearsal mode, press the REHEARSAL key so that the indicator
goes out.
6.2.4 Audio recording
NOTE;
Recording can only take place when the STDBY key is lit steadily (not
flashing).
Make sure the source is located to the required position.
Press the REC and PLAY keys together. Both will light steadily.
If the source is being controlled by the REMOTE or PARALLEL I/O signals, the
"PLAY" command (REMOTE) will be sent at the -01 second, 74 frames point.
"PLAY1" and "PLAY2" messages will be sent from the PARALLEL I/O connector.
See the "Parallel I/O timing chart" on page 35 for details.
If the source is being manually controlled, start the source as soon as the display
on the controller reaches
"XX 01 0000".
With the LINE indicator illuminated, monitoring can be done from the source
(INPUT) or off-disc (REPRO) by selecting the appropriate option.
As the recording progresses, the rightmost indicators (time indicators) of the dis
play will advance. If the program is longer than the pre-defined track length, the
track number will be incremented automatically. It is not possible to use the
TrlNC (track increment) key in TOC PRE mode, but the IxINC (index incre
