Scene Name/Numbering
Scene names are selected for use from a scene name list. This list is accessed from the setup menu.
Any number of scene name lists can be generated and these can be made up of any number of scene
names. The advantage of scene name lists is that scene names can be built before production so that
Scene names are made with alphanumeric characters, including “ _ ” and “-” and can be any length
between zero (0) and nine (9) characters in length. Scene numbers are helpful to match audio with
the corresponding scene in a production. Scene names can also be used to identify other items, in-
cluding recording date, artist name, or any other descriptor as required.
Scene names are user-selected in the Setup Menu and do not change until changed by the user.
To change scene numbers:
1. Enter the user menu and navigate to the Scene Name/Number option.
2. Use the REW (<<) and FF (>>) soft buttons to move among characters. Use the PLAY button to delete
characters. Characters are entered from left to right and deleted from right to left.
3. Use the Rotary Switch or the soft button arrows on the left to choose characters. Press the Rotary Switch
or press the fast-forward button to save the character and move to the next position.
4. To save the scene name, press the soft button labeled check or the Rotary Switch without selecting a
character. After the ninth character is entered, the scene name is automatically saved.
If all characters are removed, no scene name will be written to files, only a take number. If Scene
Folder is selected for file management, all takes will be placed in the root of the drive.
Take Numbers
Take numbers are integers between 01 and 32000, with or without preceding zeros, which increase
by one each time a new file is recorded. Take numbers can be set with or without a take separator,
such as the character “ -” or “T”. Take numbers can be overridden and a new take number can be set
in the Setup Menu. If the 702T detects a file with a duplicate name in the destination folder, a letter
suffix, starting with “ A” is added to the file name, before the extension. Note that take number han-
dling can be selected to reset if set in the Setup Menu (see File Management and Copying ).
