Gray areas are recorded areas.
White areas are unrecorded areas.
Recording method and REMAIN indicator
Recording method
The recorder uses a E-IDE hard disk instead of a cassette tape. You can start recording sound
sources from any point on a formatted disk as long as the point is within the range of 24 hours in
ABS time, as described in the previous “Time Base” section. (Refer to the following diagram.)
For example, if you record three minutes of data starting from ABS 0 (top of the disk) to ABS 03m
00s 00f on a disk that has a recordable space of thirty minutes, as shown in the diagram, then if you
record two minutes starting at the 10-minute point in ABS time (ABS 10m 00s 00f) to ABS 12m 00s
00f, the recording end point (REC END) is 12 minutes (ABS 12m 00s 00f) in ABS time. However, this
does not mean that the entire recording duration is 12 minutes. The disk space actually used for
recording is five minutes (3 m 2 minutes).
That is, the area between three minutes and ten minutes (that corresponds to 25 minutes of recording
space) in terms of ABS time is still unrecorded.
When you try to play or fast forward this unrecorded area, the time counter on the display will
count, but the recorder will not access the disk. However, MTC will be output when you try to play
this area. On the recorder, the top of the disk is called “ABS 0” and the recording end point is called
“REC END.”
REMAIN indicator
The REMAIN indicator displays available recording time expressed in time value (ABS or MTC) or
bar/beat/clock (BAR/BEAT/CLK) value, depending on the currently selected Time Base.
It also indicates the available disk space. Right after you format the disk, the REMAIN indicator will
show the maximum recordable time and space on the disk. The following example shows that the
disk had about 20 minutes or 100MB recordable space after the disk format operation, and has
recorded data of 4 minutes 27 seconds (or 19MB).
The REMAIN value is calculated on a mono-track basis. That value indicates the available recording
time and space if you record on one mono-track.
For example, if you wish to know how much you can record on eight tracks, you need to divide the
current REMAIN value by eight.
The REMAIN value display is calculated from data on the real track and data on the additional track
which will be explained later, and includes data left over for multiple undo. In other words, the
REMAIN value will be displayed in the form of time/capacity obtained by deducting data on the
real track, data moved onto the additional track and past editing data left over for multiple undo.
