Program
The VF80EX can have up to 99 programs (P01 through P99) and usually each program manages one song.
You can make recording against each program or playback materials recorded on each program.
This section describe program-related operations.
Creating a new program
When formatting a hard disk, a program (P01) is au-
tomatically created.
To create a new program, follow the procedure below
while the recorder is stopped and the display shows
the Normal screen.
<Note>
The initial settings for a new program are copied from the
setting of the current program.
Therefore, if you want to make a new program with the
same settings as an existing program, bring up the pro-
gram before creating a new program.
Press the [TRACK EDIT/PGM] key while holding down
the [SHIFT] key.
The screen for selecting, renaming or deleting a pro-
gram appears. (The screen example below shows the
initial condition where only Program 01 exists.)
Use the [JOG] dial to highlight "P02 [New Program]"
and then press the [ENTER/YES] key.
When highlighting " P02 [New Program] ", only high-
lighted " SELECT " is shown at the bottom of the screen.
Pressing the [ENTER/YES] key creates a new program
(P02 in this example) with the tentative title whose
leftmost character ("
# " in this example) is highlighted.
In this condition, you can enter the program title by
following the procedure described in "<How to enter a
desired title> below.
Note that you may use the program with the tentative
title ("
#0002 " in this example) if you do not need to en-
ter the desired one. Anyway, you may also enter/edit
the title later by the procedure described in "Editing a
program title" on page
62 .
To use the program with the tentative title, press the
[EXIT/NO] key. To put the desired title, see the following.
<How to enter a desired title>
• Rotate the [JOG] dial (or [CURSOR / ] keys)
to select a character for the blinking point from
among those listed below.
• Use the [CURSOR / ] keys to move the blinking
point.
<Hint>
When selecting a character, rotating the [JOG] dial
while holding down the [SHIFT] key jumps among
characters surrounded with the box above.
This function will allow you to save time for select-
ing a desired character.
Press the [ENTER/YES] key after entering the title.
The title is set.
Press the [EXIT/NO] (or [STOP]) key.
The setup mode exits and the display shows the Nor-
mal screen of the newly created program.
<Hint>
• When creating a new program, the next program
number to the highest program number in the
existing programs is assigned.
If there is only one program (P01), Program 02
(P02) will be created. If there is five programs (P01
through P05), Program 06 (P06) will be created.
• Creating a new program consumes a small amount
of the recordable disk space. Also note that when
the recordable disk space is not enough, you
cannot create a new program.
