To store numbered Locate points:
Locate points can be stored either on the
fly or when stopped.
1. Press STORE. The Store LED lights.
2. STORE LOCATOR appears in
the display. Select one of the
four Locate points in the display
(Loc1, Loc2, Loc3, Loc4)
when the transport is at the desired location. The Store LED goes out,
indicating that the Locate point has been stored.
Loop
Looped playback is determined by the selected locator mode (SETUP:Record:Page
Right:LocMd
).
♦ With Loop1-2/Punch3-4 selected, Locates 1 and 2 double as start and end
points for looped playback. When looping is enabled, playback cycles
between the Loop Start and Loop End points. Locates 3 and 4 serve as
punch in and punch out points when Auto Punch is enabled (the PUNCH
button).
♦ The order of the Loop points does not matter.
♦ If the current locator time is before or between the Loop points when loop
is enabled, playback continues from its current position until it reaches
the Loop End point, and then jumps back to the Loop Start point.
♦ If the current locator time is after the Loop End point, looping will not
occur.
♦ With Loc3-4 PreR/PostR selected, Locates 3 and 4 double as start and
end points for looped playback (Locates 1 and 2 do not loop). If Auto
Punch is enabled, Loc3 and Loc4 become the Punch-in and out points. The
preroll time (SETUP:Record:PreRo) is subtracted from the Punch Start
point, and the postroll time (SETUP:Record:PostRo) is added to the
Punch End point to create the looping points.
To enable Looping:
1. Press LOOP to enable looping.
Looping can be enabled during Stop,
Play, Fast Forward, or Rewind.
Recording
All recording in the SDR24/96 is non-destructive. When you record over
existing audio, the old audio is not “erased” as it with magnetic tape;
rather, new audio files are created in addition to the existing files. Audio
files are recorded in native Wave format (.WAV).
Recording can only take place on tracks that are “armed” for recording.
To arm tracks for recording:
1. Press a track’s Record Ready button.
2. Press it again to disarm the track.
The red Record Ready LED, located at the bottom of
the meter directly above the Record Ready button,
blinks when a track is armed and ready to record, and
glows when the track is recording.
