Fade-in and fade-out recording

At the beginning and end of recording, fade-in and fade-out effects can be performed.

1During stop or recording standby mode, set the op- eration using the following menu options on the REC sub-menu (refer to “Operation basics” on page 14).

FADE IN?

The length of the fade in to the normal level can be set between 1 and 30 seconds in 1-second incre- ments (default setting: 3 seconds).

FADE OUT?

The length of the fade out into complete silence can be set between 1 and 30 seconds in 1-second incre-ments (default setting: 3 seconds).

The display shows Fade Out>XXs or Fade In>XXs.

2In recording standby mode, press the FADER key on the remote control.

Recording begins and the sound fades in. After the preset fade-in time, the sound is at normal level.

3During recording, press the FADER key on the re- mote control when you wish to fade-out the sound.

Fade-out begins with Fade Out flashing on the dis- play then the unit enters recording standby mode.

4Press the STOP key and the PMA writing will begin.

NOTE

Fade-in or fade-out function can be operated only pressing the FADER key on the remote control unit.

Synchronaized recording

Synchronized recording basically means that recording will begin automatically when a signal is received, and will stop when the signal ends.

Use the SYNC REC key to select the synchronization mode. The synchronization mode determines the auto- mated start and stopping of recording when a signal is received.

During stop or recording stancby mode, repeated presses of this key cycle through the fol-lowing modes:

Sync ALL: The SYNC indicator lights up.

Sync 1: The unit stops when a selected track is fin- ished and the SYNC indicator flashes

Sync OFF: Turns Sync recording function off

After the synchronization mode is selected, the record ready mode must then be entered (you cannot reverse the order of these steps).

Starting playback of the source automatically starts re- cording on the CD-RW900 if Sync ALL or Sync 1 has been selected (see “Sync recording” below) and manual record start is disabled. If Sync OFF is selected, the re- cording must be started manually.

Sync recording

1While recording standby mode, press the SYNC REC key repeatedly to select Sync ALL or Sync 1.

2Set the signal detection threshold level. Use the SYNC LEVEL option in the REC sub-menu (refer to “Operation basics” on page 14).

Rotate the MULTI JOG dial to adjust the level. The level can be set from -72 dB to -24 dB in 6 dB incre- ments. The default setting is -24 dB.

Press the MENU key or push the MULTI JOG dial to enter and return to recording standby mode.

3Input the source signal.

Recording begins automatically when the source signal is detected. The source signal should be high- er than the adjusted threshold level.
