Fade-in and fade-out

To provide smooth beginnings and endings to recorded tracks, the unit provides fade facilities.

Fade-ins are from –∞ (silence) to the set input level (see “Signal volume” on page 20) and fade-outs go from the current input volume to silence.

The fade-in and fade-out times can be set indepen- dently in increments of one second, from 1 second to 24 seconds.

CORD key to enter record standby mode.

2Start the source material, and press the FADER key on the remote control.

The display shows FADE IN for the time specified in the menu item above.

As the fade progresses, the monitored signal gradually becomes louder, reflecting the level recorded on disc.

ªTo set the fade times:

1 Press the MENU key repeatedly until the display shows FADE IN > XXs, where XX is the current fade-in time, in seconds.

2Turn the MULTI DIAL or use the SKIP keys to change the value of the fade-in time.

3Press the MENU key again so that the display shows FADE OUT> XXs, where XX is the current fade-out time, in seconds.

ªTo perform a fade-out:

As the fade progresses, the monitored signal gradually becomes quieter, reflecting the level recorded on disc.

2When the end of the fade-out time is reached, the unit goes into record standby mode. Record- ing can be restarted with the FADER key or the

PLAY or PAUSE keys.

The FADER key can be used and also the fade-in and fade-out times can be reset to new values while record- ing is in progress.

Rec mute function

The rec mute function allows instant cut-off of the input signal, and records four seconds of silence on the disc.

1While recording is in progress, press the REC MUTE key.

The display shows REC MUTE, the meters stop displaying the current level and the monitored sound is cut.

2After about four seconds, the unit enters record standby mode.

NOTE

This function is only available from the remote con- trol unit. It is not possible to use this function with the main unit only.

Copy-protection

The CC-222MKIII allows copy-protection to be applied to the discs produced. Naturally, the copy-protection applies only to digital-to-digital copies.

There are three settings:

•FREE (may be freely copied), where no copy-pro- tection is applied to the recorded disc.

•1GEN (single-generation copying), where one digital copy (“child”) can be made from the recorded disc, but no digital copies (“grandchildren”) can be made from the child.

•PROH (copy prohibited) which prevents any digital copies being made from the recorded disc

1Press the MENU key repeatedly until the dis-play

shows COPY ID>XXXX, where XXXX is the current setting for copy-protection as shown above.

2Turn the MULTI DIAL or use the SKIP keys to change the copy-protection setting.

NOTE

Copy-protection applies on a “per-track”, not a per- disc basis. This means that you can apply different copy-protection levels to different tracks (but you can’t apply different copy-protection levels to dif- ferent parts of the same track). If copy-protection is important to your work, you may want to check this setting every time you make a recording, to ensure that you have the protection level that you want.
