Pre-Record Buffer
To prevent missing record cues or up-cutting takes the 744T has an available pre-record (or pre-roll)
buffer. When active, pre-record begins recording at a set number of seconds PRECEEDING the re-
cord key being pressed. The amount of pre-record is sample-rate-dependent. At 48 kHz, ten seconds
of buffered audio is available. At a 96 kHz sampling rate fi ve seconds is available. At very high rates
(192 kHz) two seconds of pre-record buffer is available.
Failure During Recording
In the event of a storage media failure the specifi c error will be indicated on the front panel and by
a tone in headphones. Possible causes of media failure include a hard drive in severe motion which
results in recording errors, a the Compact Flash card fi lling up while recording, or an external DVD-
RAM that can’t keep up with the chosen data rate. If more than one drive is selected for recording
the remaining drives will continue recording without failure.

Playback
The 744T has high-resolution playback circuitry and is appropriate for any reference audio applica-
tion. Any fi le recorded by the 744T can be played back, including MP3 fi le playback. In addition, fi les
copied to the storage medium from a computer can be played back. This is useful when using the
744T as a high-resolution playback device.
The 744T plays back the last recorded audio fi le unless another fi le is selected. There are two ways to
select another fi le for playback. To select another fi le in the current record directory, push either the
FastForward or reverse key to put the 744T in to play-stop mode. The fi lename display will begin
fl ashing and the FastForward and Reverse keys are used to step through fi les available in the current
record directory. To select a fi le in an alternate directory, press the HDD key to enter the media direc-
tories. Navigate to the appropriate directory. Select the fi le that to play back with the Rotary Switch
and press play.
If the stop key is pressed while playing fi les from an alternate directory, the 744T will revert to the
current daily directory.
