NOTE
If you set the value so that only high-level signals
trigger recording, remember that the start of a piece
may not be record as in the diagram.

Also remember that when recording from an analog
source, the threshold should be set so that it is higher
than the “noise floor”. If the “noise floor” is higher
than the threshold, a false start will occur:

Automatic track division
The trigger level can also be used to divide tracks if the A_
TRACK (auto track) function is enabled.
When this function is enabled, the unit automatically inserts a
track division in the recorded material.
ª To enable or disable automatic track division:
1. Use A_TRK option in the REC sub-menu to set the
mode on. The A.TRACK indicator at the top right of the
display lights.
2. Rotate and push the MULTI JOG dial to select and
enter the modes following:
DD (digital direct)
When recording digitally from MD, CD or DAT, this
mode detects a track boundary and divides the track.
However, when the DD mode is on, and if the analog
source or non-DAT/CD/MD digital connections are
detected, the track number will be incremented using
level detection, as set with the A_TRK LEVEL setting
as described here.
When AES/EBU is selected, this mode cannot be used.
Time (Time track increment)
The track will be incremented when the time set prior
to recording using the menu item “A_TRK TIME?” has
passed (see “Operation basics” on page 16). The time
can be set between one minute and ten minutes in one
minute increments. The A.TRACK indicator blinks during
recording or when in record ready mode.
This function can be turned on by pressing the AUTO
TRACK key on the remote control.
Level
When the sound level has dropped below the threshold
for more than two seconds, and sound has re-started, the
track will be divided.
Use A_TRK LEVEL option in the REC sub-menu. The
trigger level is set to -24dB to -72 dB.

Sync recording with trim function
This Sync trim function allows you to override the automatic
sync recording where necessary, to chang the start time of the
track forwards or backwards.
Use the SYNC TRIM option in the REC sub-menu to turn the
function on (see “Operation basics” on page 16).
The available trim range is from -125 through +125 frames.
Turn the MULTI JOG dial to adjust the trim value.
