[9] RHSL (F 1) key and indicator
This key and indicator allow selection of the
rehearsal mode in auto punch-in and out (see 6.6,
“Punch-in and punch-out”).
When the
SHIFT
key [24] is pressed, this key
becomes a function key.
[10] AUTO PUNCH (F 2) key and
indicator
This key and indicator allow automatic punch-in
and punch out following rehearsal (see 6.6,
“Punch-in and punch-out”).
When the
SHIFT
key [24] is pressed, this key
becomes a function key.
[11] CLEAR (F 3) key
This key defeats the rehearsal and auto modes dur-
ing auto punch-in and out (see 6.6, “Punch-in and
punch-out”). It is also used to cancel a format
operation (see 6.1, “Formatting a tape”).
When the
SHIFT
key [24] is pressed, this key
becomes a function key.
[12] AUTO PLAY (F 4) key and indicator
When this key is pressed (the indicator will light),
the DA-98 will automatically start playing as soon
as a preset location point has been reached (see
8.2.4, “Location and playback”).
When the
SHIFT
key [24] is pressed, this key
becomes a function key.
[13] MEMO 1 (F 5)
When pressed, this key stores the current tape
position into a memory location point which can
be accessed using the
LOC 1
key [22]. The loca-
tion can be “nudged” using the menu functions
(see 8.1.2, “Checking, editing and manually enter-
ing MEMO 1 and MEMO 2”).
When the SHIFT key [24] is pressed, this key
becomes a function key.
[14] MEMO 2 (+/–)
When pressed, this key stores the current tape
position into a memory location point which can
be accessed using the
LOC 2
key [23]. When the
function keys are used as number keys, this key is
used as a “sign-change” key.
[15] DIGITAL IN switch and indicator
This switch controls the input to the DA-98. When
on (indicator lights), the input is through the
DIGI-
TAL I/O (TDIF-1
) connector on the rear panel, oth-
erwise it is through the
ANALOG INPUT
connector.
[16] CHASE switch and indicator
The
CHASE
switch controls whether the DA-98’s
transport is to “chase” a master machine (indicator
is lit when chasing or flashing when preparing to
chase) or to operate independently. The chase
mode may be either timecode or ABS based (see
10.1, “ABS and SMPTE/EBU timecode”).
[17] CONFIDENCE MODE switch and
indicator
The DA-98 features a confidence replay mode
which allows off-tape monitoring. This switch and
its associated indicator allow selection and view-
ing of the status of this monitoring mode.
For a full explanation of confidence monitoring,
see 7.2, “Confidence mode”.
[18] ALL INPUT (F 6) key and indicator
When this key is pressed, the indicator will light,
and, regardless of the transport mode, all outputs
will be switched to the signals derived from the
inputs. This is primarily for alignment purposes,
and is equivalent to pressing all the
INPUT MONI-
TOR
switches ([29]) together.
For a full treatment of monitoring modes on the
DA-98, see 7, “Monitoring modes”
When the
SHIFT
key [24] is pressed, this key
becomes a function key.
[19] AUTO MON (F 7) key and indicator
When this key is pressed (the indicator will light),
the monitoring system of the DA-98 automatically
changes between input and off-tape monitoring,
depending on the transport mode.
For a full treatment of monitoring modes on the
DA-98, see 7, “Monitoring modes”
When the
SHIFT
key [24] is pressed, this key
becomes a function key.
