3 - Menu functions
The menu facilities on the tape deck allow common
settings to be made.
Repeated presses of
MENU [28]
will cycle through
the different menu items listed here in the order pre-
sented here.
Repeated presses of the
DISPLAY [24]
key when
the tape deck is in menu mode will display the differ-
ent menu items in the opposite order to the one in
which they are presented here.
NOTE
When attempting to access the menus with
the MENU key, the display mode should not
be the Block Error rate display mode. In this
display mode, pressing the MENU key
changes between the A and B tracks.
When setting values from a menu, turn the
DATA
dial
[20]
to change the displayed value. The new
value will be shown flashing on the display.
Press
ENTER [27]
to confirm the value.
If the DATA dial is turned, but no changes are to be
made to the displayed value, press the
MENU
key
again to return the display to the previous value.
To exit the menu mode, press either the COUNTER
MODE [21]
or the
MARGIN RESET [23]
key.
3.1 Drum time (head time)
Reports the time (in hours) that the head drum has
been in use. Use this information to help schedule
head cleaning, following the interval between clean-
ings as recommended by the cleaning cassette.
3.2 Auto ID level
When the AUTO ID function is enabled ( AUTO ID
[26]
), signals which exceed this level, after a period
of relative silence (as set in 3.3, "Auto ID time") will
automatically start the recording of a START ID at
the point where the signal exceeds this level.
The options available are:
-48dB
,
-54dB
,
-57dB
and
-60dB
.
The default value is
-48dB
.
3.3 Auto ID time
When the AUTO ID function is enabled ( AUTO ID
[26]
), signals which exceed the level set in 3.2,
"Auto ID level" will automatically start the recording
of a START ID, if the signal has remained below the
level for the period set in this parameter immediately
before exceeding the trigger level.
Since the tape deck does not read track numbers, etc.,
from digital audio sources, this function should be
used to divide CD tracks and assign new program
numbers at the start of each track. Set the “gap time”
as appropriate for the program material.
The times available are:
2.0
,
2.5
,
3.0
,
0.5
,
1.0
and
1.5
seconds.
The default value is
2.0
seconds.
3.4 Record mute time
Sets the length of the silent period when the REC
MUTE
key
[18]
is pressed, the input signal to the
tape is muted, and a period of silence is recorded.
The values available are:
4
,
5
,
6
,
7
,
2
and
3
seconds.
The default value is
4
seconds.
3.5 Reference level
Matches the input and output reference levels of ana-
log audio equipment to the digital reference standard
in use for the recording project, meaning that when a
nominal level (4 dBu or –10 dBV) analog
signal is input, this will show as the selected refer-
ence level on the tape deck’s meters. The converse is
true when analog signals are output from the tape
deck (i.e. a signal at the selected reference level will
be output at the appropriate nominal analog level).
Three options are available:
-16dB
(TASCAM),
-18dB
(European), and
-20dB
(SMPTE).
The default value is
-16dB
, and the symbol on
the display meters (between the
18
and 14 ) will light
when this value is selected.
