Audio level meter display inside viewfinder
For the audio levels to be adjusted by one person only, it is recommended that the F.AUDIO LEVEL controls be used. Select in advance the audio channels whose levels are to be adjusted, and while monitoring the level meter on the viewfinder screen, adjust the F.AUDIO LEVEL controls in such a way that the input will not be too high.

|
|
| 4 | |

| pressed, the flashing digit moves to | |
|
| the right. | |

User bit memory function
The user bit settings (except for the actual time) are automatically saved in the memory and retained even after the power is turned off.
Tape continuity with the user bits
Selecting REGEN for the UB MODE item on the <TC/UB> screen by performing menu operations will call up the user bits recorded on the tape, making it possible to continue recording from that value. However, it is not possible to record the contents that were set.
<Note>
The time code/user bits are also recorded in the VIDEO AUX area of the unit’s memory. The time code (VITC) is the same value as the sub code area’s time code (LTC).
Special information such as the camera’s frame rate is recorded in the user bits (VITC’s user bits).
