— Time Machine Recording
When recording from an FM or satellite
broadcast, the first few seconds of material are
often lost due to the time it takes you to
ascertain the contents and press the record
button. To prevent the loss of this material, the
Time Machine Recording feature constantly
stores the most recent audio data in a buffer
memory. This lets you record the sound from 6
seconds before starting recording, as shown in
the illustration below:
