In the STATUS menu, the Select buttons cycle through the various STATUS screens. The
Adjust buttons have no effect on the STATUS menu. The following shows the display for
the STATUS menu:
In the CONFIG or MEDIA menus, the Select buttons select various adjustable parameters,
and the Adjust buttons adjust the selected parameter. When you enter into a parameter
of a menu, the system remembers and returns to the last selected parameter. The
following shows the displays for the CONFIG and MEDIA menus.
TRANSPORT Mode (default)
TRANSPORT mode is the default mode for Ki Pro Rack operation. When you power up Ki
Pro Rack, the first display you’ll see is the TRANSPORT mode menu. Any clip that
previously was recorded is referenced in the display and can be played.
If the screen saver is on, pushing one of the transport buttons in the middle of the front
panel (PLAY, STOP, FF, REV, REC) dismisses the screen saver and returns to the current
display. A second press, or a first press if the screen saver is already off, immediately takes
action and causes the display to change to the TRANSPORT mode if it is not already
displayed. Settings you’ve made in the MEDIA menus are observed (more on that later).
You’ll always know you are in TRANSPORT mode as long as one of the MENU buttons
aren’t lit (STATUS, MENU, or MEDIA)—if one is lit, then you are in a “menu”.
Stop Mode When in the “STOP” mode, the CONFIG and MEDIA set-up menus can be accessed to
adjust various parameters that control Ki Pro Rack's operation. Note that you must be in
STOP, not PAUSE to access these menus—if you try to access these menus without first
having stopped playback, a “PRESS STOP” prompt will appear on the VFD display. You
can tell if the STOP button is in “pause” if the button is flashing.
