SETTING LOCATE POINTS
There are two ways of storing Locate Point memories: manually or “on the fly.”
To store a Locate Point memory “on the fly”:
¿Press [PLAY] to engage playback.
Alternatively, the transport may be engaged in either Rewind, Review, Fast
Forward, Cue, Record or Stop mode (i.e. the transport does not have to be in
Play mode to store Locate Points in the following manner; it is simply the most
practical way to do it).
¡Press and/or hold the [SET LOCATE] button.
The
LOCATE
icon will light and a dash (–) will begin flashing to its right.
¬Immediately press one of the [LOCATE 0] – [LOCATE 9] buttons.
The current tape location will be stored into the Locate Point memory you
selected. If
[LOCATE]
button is not pressed within 2 seconds after releasing
[SET LOCATE]
, the flashing dash will disappear and none of the Locate Point
memories will be changed.
÷To store multiple Locate Points, you may continue holding the [SET LOCATE]
button and press any of the [LOCATE] buttons when the desired tape positions
are reached.
To edit a Locate Point memory:
¿Press [EDIT VALUE] to enter Edit mode.
The
EDIT
icon will light.
¡Press one of the [LOCATE 0] – [LOCATE 9] buttons to select a Locate Point
address.
The
LOCATE
icon will light, the selected Locate Point’s number (0-9) will appear
next to it, and the address of the selected Locate Point will be displayed in the
TIME counter.
¬Use [s] and [t] buttons to fine tune the Locate Point’s address.
÷Alternatively, you may select a specific digit by holding [EDIT VALUE] and using
the [s] and [t] buttons.
The selected digit will flash.
ƒWhile still holding [EDIT VALUE], press any of the [LOCATE 0] – [LOCATE 9]
buttons to replace the selected digit with.
The next digit to the right is automatically selected, so you may continue entering
digits.
LOCATING
Once you have stored one or more tape positions into the Locate Point memories,
pressing any of the [LOCATE 0] – [LOCATE 9] buttons while Edit mode is
not
selected will initiate a locate to its respective address. The TIME counter will
momentarily display the selected Locate Point’s address and the Locate Point’s
number (0–9) will appear in the upper-right corner of the display; the transport will
either fast forward or rewind to the selected Locate Point’s address.
