Executing Track Exchange
1. While the FD-4 is stopped, press the EDIT key repeatedly
until [TRK Exchg] flashes on the display.
Alternatively, you can press the EDIT key, then use the
JOG dial.
2. Press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The display shows the track selection.
The current display shows that you can swap two-track
data between Additional tracks L/R and rear tracks 1–2.
If you wish to select other tracks, follow the steps below.
3. Select the tracks to swap data.
• Selecting Additional tracks L–R and Real tracks 3–4:
1. Press the HOLD/> key, the REWIND button, or the F FWD
button to move a flashing cursor on [L–R] (left) to
[1–2](right).
2. Turn the JOG dial to change flashing [1–2] to flashing
[3–4].
• Swapping mono track data
1. When [L–R] is flashing, turn the JOG dial.
Turning the JOG dial allows you to select a mono track
from [1], [2], [3], [4], [L], and [R] in the left column.
The right column continues to indicate [1].
For example, if you select [4] in the left column, the
display indicates [4<>1], meaning you can swap data
between tracks 4 and 1.
2. To select a number in the right column, press the
HOLD/> key, the REWIND button, or the F FWD button
to move the flashing cursor to the right column, then
use the JOG dial to select the desired number.
* When you swap data between mono tracks, the indications [4<>1]
and [1<>4], for example, mean the same thing — swapping data
between tracks 1 and 4.
<Note>
If you select the same tracks for swapping mono track data, the
setting is ignored. The FD-4 will indicate [Select Err] for a short mo-
ment, then return to the previous display.
4. Press the EXECUTE/YES key.
[Exchange] lights up and the swapping operation is
completed immediately.
The FD-4 indicates [COMPLETED !], then returns to the
previous Time Base display.
* You cannot play data or check the REC END point on the
Additional tracks. To do so, you need to move the data to a
Real track.
If you load back-up data from an external DAT recorder, the
data maintains the same condition as when you previously
saved it to DAT.
