This section describes how to format and optimize a current drive disk and a backup disk.
You can also find information regarding formatting and optimizing the disks in the Quick Operation
Guide and in the “Saving and Loading Song Data” section of this manual.
Formatting a current drive disk
Before you format a current drive disk, specify the sampling frequency and bit (data) resolution,
Multiple Undo on/off, and format type parameters. Refer to the table below for more information
on these settings.
<Detailed formatting parameters>
Turn this function on to use the Multiple Undo function for all takes (recordings and edits).
This function consumes more disk space. If you are using a small capacity disk, turn this
function off.
Turn this function off to use the undo/redo function only for the current take (recording or
edit). If the capacity of the current drive disk is small, turn this function off.
The recorder formats a disk while evaluating the integrity of the disk, including the access
time for each block on the disk. Time required for formatting is longer, but you can be sure
of a highly reliable format. Ordinarily, this format type is selected. This option is displayed
and accessible whether you format a new disk or reformat an old disk.
With this simple format type, the recorder assumes that all sectors on the hard disk are of
good quality. Time required for formatting is shorter, but any bad sectors would not be
detected. Select this format type when you format a brand new disk for which Fostex has
confirmed quality operation. You can select this format type only when you format a new
disk or reformat a disk previously formatted with Quick Format.
You can select this format type only when you reformat a disk previously formatted with
Standard Format. Use of this format will erase all data on the disk while keeping the Standard
Format. Time required for formatting is shorter than when using Standard Format.
* 8-track simultaneous analog recording
* 8-track simultaneous analog (6 tracks) and digital (2 tracks - S/P DIF) recording
* 8-track simultaneous adat digital recording
* 8-track simultaneous analog recording
* 8-track simultaneous analog (6 tracks) and digital (2 tracks - S/P DIF) recording
* 16-track simultaneous analog (8 tracks) and digital (8 tracks - adat) recording
* 16-track simultaneous adat digital recording
<Note>:
A current drive formatted with 96kHz/24-bit offers the same recording
capacity as that of the D824.
* Saving and loading data via a DAT or adat
* Saving and loading data via SCSI
<Note>:
A current drive formatted with 96kHz/24-bit does not support the saving
and loading operation via a DAT or adat.
