Teac MX-2424 v1.04 - Manual (Page 28)

MAIN TRANSPORT KEYS:
[32] REWIND/HEAD
One push of the REWIND button sends the MX-2424 into Rewind mode. Two quick pushes sends the play head to
the beginning (Head) of the project.
Holding STOP [34] and pressing FF [33] or RW [32] sends the transport forward or backward using the amount set
up as the Rollback value. It is possible to repeatedly perform this key combination by holding the STOP [34] key
and repeatedly pressing the FF [33] or RW [32]. In this case the locate operation must be completed before the
repeat press of FF [33] or RW [32].
[33] FAST FORWARD/TAIL
One push of the FAST FORWARD button sends the MX-2424 into Fast Forward mode. Two quick pushes sends
the play head to the End (Tail) of the project.
Holding STOP [34] and pressing FF [33] or RW [32] sends the transport forward or backward using the amount set
up as the Rollback value. It is possible to repeatedly perform this key combination by holding the STOP [34] key
and repeatedly pressing the FF [33] or RW [32]. In this case the locate operation must be completed before the
repeat press of FF [33] or RW [32].
[34] STOP
The STOP key halts the operation of the transport under all conditions and removes any loop pending mode. It is lit
in all stopped conditions.
[35] PLAY
This button puts the MX-2424 into play mode. If Chase is active or the MX-2424 is a slave on the TL-Bus, this play
command takes the MX-2424 offline when pressed on the chasing machine. Pressing PLAY [35] while recording
will punch out of record mode while the transport continues to play.
[36] REH
The REH [36] key initiates Rehearsal Mode on those tracks that are armed for recording. The MX-2424 can be set
for one-button Rehearse (pressing only the REH [36] key initiates Rehearse), or to enter Rehearse only when
pressing PLAY [35] and REH [36] simultaneously (this is the default) as determined in Menu 203. Rehearse mode
is used to rehearse a recording by switching to input and back to disk playback. This allows previewing the record
process prior to actually recording and is very useful when operating in TapeMode because record Undo is not
available in TapeMode.
Auto Rehearse is enabled by pressing <SHIFT> [19] then REH [36]. The REH LED will flash indicating that an
Auto Rehearse operation will be performed using the In and Out points when PLAY [35] is pressed. Pressing
<SHIFT> [19] then REH [36] again or just pressing REH [37] will cancel Auto Rehearse. Auto Rehearse is also
possible during Loop. (See Auto Record/Virtual Tracks for more details.)
[37] REC
The REC [37] key initiates Record Mode on those tracks that are armed for recording. The MX-2424 can be set for
one-button Record (pressing only the REC [37] key initiates Record), or to enter Record only when pressing PLAY
[35] and REC [37] simultaneously (this is the default) as determined in Menu 202.
Auto Record is enabled by pressing <SHIFT> [19] then REC [37]. The REC LED will flash indicating that an
Auto Record operation will be performed using the In and Out points when PLAY [35] is pressed. Pressing
<SHIFT> [19] then REC [37] again or just pressing REC [37] will cancel Auto Record. Auto Record is also
possible during Loop. (See Advanced Functions for more details.)
