SONOSAX STELLADAT II - Manual (Page 32)

> Sonorous alarm sub-menu:
There are mainly two acoustic communication modes from Stelladat II towards the
user:
The message mode characterized by a single beep to inform that (for ex.) there is
no cassette in the holder even though a transport key has been pressed.
The alarm mode characterized by intermittents beeps to warn of facts of a higher
seriousness, generally of working or configuration problems of the recorder.
These acoustic warnings come together with an error message on screen, describing
the issue. In this sub-menu, the user can enable (ON) or disable (OFF) the sonorous
alarm, without however affecting the error message display.
> Recording Mode sub-menu:
> The ASSEMBLE REC option
is used for normal audio recording. In this mode, Stelladat II records two or four
tracks as well as subcodes, i.e. related informations like Time Code and ID's.
> When the SUBCODE ONLY option
is selected, the ID status screen accessible via the DISP key changes look and
displays the subcodes modification options:
— SUB MODIFICATION —
> START ID WRITE
START ID ERASE
RENUMBER
> The START ID WRITE option
lets you write a START ID directly on tape. For this, place the cursor (>)
facing START ID WRITE and hit the REC key.
> The START ID ERASE option
lets you erase a START ID on tape. Place the tape downstream of the
START ID to be erased, place the cursor (>) facing START ID ERASE and
hit the REC key.
> Finally, the RENUMBER option
lets you renumber all the START ID's present on the tape, in increasing
order and by unity step without modifying their location. Insert a cassette in
the tray, place the cursor (>) facing RENUMBER and press the REC key: a
new screen opens where you're expected to enter, via the joystick, the
number for the first START ID of the tape. Pressing vertically on the
joystick starts the operation which can last a certain amount of time
because one single START ID's modification requires at least 9 seconds.
