Insert Record may only be entered from the Stop mode. There are two forms of Insert
recording: Basic Insert Recording, and Replacement Insert Recording
Basic Insert Recording
Unlike the video industry use of the term, Insert Recording inserts new audio and "pushes
out" material following this point to make room; it therefore extends the File running time.
1. Place both the E DIT I N and E DIT O UT marks at the point where the recording is to be
inserted. To extend a recording, place them both at the end of the File.
2. Press one of the A RM keys if it is desired to enable recording on only one track.
3. Hold the I NSERT button and then press R ECORD .
4. To exit, press S TOP or P LAY .
Replacement Insert Recording
In this operation, a region of audio is replaced with a new recording. First, the region to
be replaced is highlighted by placing the E DIT I N mark at the beginning, and the E DIT O UT mark
at the end of it. On entering the Insert Record mode, the highlighted audio is deleted, and the
new material is inserted in that space. The ultimate length of the File will depend on whether
the inserted segment is shorter or longer than the audio being replaced.
Insert Recording in this manner is how the Shortcut executes an erase-record or “punch-
in” record. However, you don’t have to take a running start, and there is no possibility of the
new take running long and erasing good material after the edit. It is as though you cut out the
bad take, and edited in a take from a different piece of tape. If you want to record over
everything after a certain point, simply place the Edit Out mark at the end of the file.
1. Place the E DIT I N mark at the point to start the new material.
2. Place the E DIT O UT mark at the end of the region to be replaced.
3. Press one of the A RM keys if it is desired to record on only one track.
4. Hold the I NSERT key and then press R ECORD .
5. Record the new audio passage.
6. To exit, press S
TOP or P LAY .
Note that in all other record modes, Shortcut always records both channels.
