3. Click on the
Settings
action icon to reveal the recording parameters
screen as shown above.
4. Once you have clicked on the
Record
action icon (or Enter button),
you can pause the recording by clicking the Pause action icon (or
Enter button) and then stop the recording by clicking on the STOP
button.
You can record from any line-level audio source to the AV 700. Be careful that the source audio is supplying a line
level and not an ampli
fi
ed signal (turning down the volume on the player will work if you are using the headphone
out signal of your audio device). A signal that is ampli
fi
ed too much will make for a terribly distorted recording.
Incremental Recording
While recording, you will notice the incremental recording action icon. This allows you to create
incremental recordings. This means that the current recording stops and a new recording instantly
begins. The next recording has an additional number appended to its name. Thus if you create multiple
incremental recordings, you might, for example, have
fi
les names of REC0000_01, REC0000_02, etc.
This is good for recording old cassettes and old vinyl records. You can click on this icon during the blank space
between each song. That way, each song of the vinyl disk or audio cassette will be one single music
fi
le.

13.3 Where is the Recording Saved?
13.3 Where is the Recording Saved?
The default location for audio recordings is the folder called
Music
. This can be changed though. For example,
you click on the Music icon in the main menu and then you choose
Browse Hard Drive
. Notice that there is the
Launch Audiocorder
action icon. Each time you use this button to start the Audiocorder application instead
of the AudioCorder button on the main menu, you set the recording default location to the current folder. For
example, let’s say you have a folder called /
Music/Vinyls/Soul
. If you go to this folder and then make a recording
using the action icon, you will set the default record location to this folder. Now, all your recordings you make with
the Audiocorder icon will be saved in the folder
/Music/Vinyls/Soul
.

Editing
Audio
fi
les (analog recordings only) can be modi
fi
ed by deleting the sections you do not wish included. If you
would like to edit an audio recording, you have the possibility to cut the
fi
le down to the speci
fi
c part you want to
keep. In the example below, you have recorded a lecture of 33 minutes and 22 seconds in length. You would like
to cut out and save just one particular important section from 12 minutes and 15 seconds to 21 minutes and 5
seconds. The diagram below illustrates the situation.
To keep just this section (cropping it), you will:
• Locate this
fi
le via
Browse hard disk
in the Music application.
• From the action icons, select the
File Management
action icon and then select
Edit
.
• In the edit mode, set the
Cut In point
(12:15 in our example). This will remove the part of the
fi
le BEFORE the
desired segment.
• Now set a
Cut Out point
(21:05 in our example. Please note: As you have cut part of the
fi
le, this position will
actually be earlier in the
fi
le now).
