although it is set in RECORD RUN mode?

1.) How can I modify the subcode of a recorded tape?
Proceed as follows:
• Select SUBCODE ONLY in Setup Menu > Recording mode > SUBCODE ONLY and exit the
menus.
• Press 3 times the DISP key to display the - SUB MODIFICATION - status screen. This
screen is only visible if Stelladat II is in SUBCODE ONLY mode.
• Place the cursor > facing the operation to be executed: START ID WRITE, START ID
ERASE or RENUMBER.
• Press the REC key to start the operation.
Note: To erase a START ID the tape must be placed after the ID to be erased.
2.) Why does the Time Code generator start at zero again after powering off the recorder,
although it is set in RECORD RUN mode?
Your recorder is probably wrongly configured. In Timecode Menu > Output source, make sure
that the selected option is really Internal.
3.) Which recorder can playback a four-tracks cassette recorded on Stelladat II?
Sonosax is the only manufacturer worldwide to offer a 4-tracks DAT recorder. The 4-tracks
cassettes recorded on Stelladat II can thus only be played back on a Stelladat II or on a
StellaMaster (SONOSAX's rack version of the DAT recorder). On the other hand, the 2-tracks
recorded cassettes can of course be played back on any DAT recorder.
