,and pr ss ENTER.

2)Use the LEFT and RIGHT keys to select the field you wish to edit (minutes or seconds) and the UP and DOWN keys to change the value.

You can also use the function keys to enter the value directly, as described in 5.2.2, “Using the function keys as number keys”.

When you go to a location point, the tape will now locate to the location point, minus the value you have just entered. For instance, if the location point is at “00:12:04:03” and you have set a location pre-roll time of 5 seconds, the tape will locate to “00:11:59:03”.

The tape will locate to the location memory minus the location pre-roll time, as described above.

8.2 Function key location memories

As explained earlier, the ten “soft” function keys can be assigned to locate to memorized positions.

8.2.1 Storing a function key location memory

In addition to the MEMO 1 and MEMO 2 memo- ries, you can also assign 10 additional memories to the function keys.

The function keys must be in “location memory” mode (see 5.2, “Function key modes”).

The tape transport can be in any function (play, record,Fstop,uncshuttle)tiowhennPyourestoreeta memory and assignPUSHFUNCTit to a functionIONKEkey. Y

The SHIFT ind cator will tart o flash.

2) Press the LOC 2/PRESET key [14]

3)Press the function key to which you want to assign a memory.

The display screen will show the time of the loca- tion memory after you have stored it to a function key.

You can continue to press function keys to add location memory points. If you are recording a song, for example, you could run the tape from the beginning of the song and use the function key memories to mark the beginning of verses, cho- russes, instrumental breaks, etc. In post-production work, you could use this feature to mark important points in the video soundtrack.

4)To use the function keys for their preset functions as written on the front panel, press SHIFT again so that the SHIFT indicator goes out.

8.2.2Editing function key memories

Function key memories can be edited in the same way as the MEMO 1 and MEMO 2 memories.
