[13]MEMO 1 (F 5)

When pressed, this key stores the current tape position into a memory location point which can

be accessed using the key [22]. The loca- tion can be “nudged” using the menu functions (see 8.1.2, “Checking, editing and manually enter- ing MEMO 1 and MEMO 2”).

When the SHIFT key [24] is pressed, this key becomes a function key.

[16]CHASE switch and indicator

The CHASE switch controls whether the DA-98’s transport is to “chase” a master machine (indicator is lit when chasing or flashing when preparing to chase) or to operate independently. The chase mode may be either timecode or ABS based (see 10.1, “ABS and SMPTE/EBU timecode”).

[17]CONFIDENCE MODE switch and indicator

The DA-98 features a confidence replay mode which allows off-tape monitoring. This switch and its associated indicator allow selection and view- ing of the status of this monitoring mode.

For a full explanation of confidence monitoring, see 7.2, “Confidence mode”.

[18]ALL INPUT (F 6) key and indicator

When this key is pressed, the indicator will light, and, regardless of the transport mode, all outputs will be switched to the signals derived from the inputs. This is primarily for alignment purposes, and is equivalent to pressing all the

TOR switches ([29]) together.
