3. Click on the Settings action icon to reveal the recording parameters

screen as shown above.

4. Once you have clicked on the Record action icon (or Enter button),

you can pause the recording by clicking the Pause action icon (or

Enter button) and then stop the recording by clicking on the STOP

button.

You can record from any line-level audio source to the AV 700. Be careful that the source audio is supplying a line

level and not an ampliﬁ ed signal (turning down the volume on the player will work if you are using the headphone

out signal of your audio device). A signal that is ampliﬁ ed too much will make for a terribly distorted recording.

Incremental Recording

While recording, you will notice the incremental recording action icon. This allows you to create

incremental recordings. This means that the current recording stops and a new recording instantly

begins. The next recording has an additional number appended to its name. Thus if you create multiple

incremental recordings, you might, for example, have ﬁ les names of REC0000_01, REC0000_02, etc.

This is good for recording old cassettes and old vinyl records. You can click on this icon during the blank space

between each song. That way, each song of the vinyl disk or audio cassette will be one single music ﬁ le.

13.3 Where is the Recording Saved?

The default location for audio recordings is the folder called Music . This can be changed though. For example,

you click on the Music icon in the main menu and then you choose Browse Hard Drive . Notice that there is the

Launch Audiocorder action icon. Each time you use this button to start the Audiocorder application instead

of the AudioCorder button on the main menu, you set the recording default location to the current folder. For

example, let’s say you have a folder called / Music/Vinyls/Soul . If you go to this folder and then make a recording

using the action icon, you will set the default record location to this folder. Now, all your recordings you make with

the Audiocorder icon will be saved in the folder /Music/Vinyls/Soul .

13.4 Audio Editing

Audio ﬁ les (analog recordings only) can be modiﬁ ed by deleting the sections you do not wish included. If you

would like to edit an audio recording, you have the possibility to cut the ﬁ le down to the speciﬁ c part you want to

keep. In the example below, you have recorded a lecture of 33 minutes and 22 seconds in length. You would like

to cut out and save just one particular important section from 12 minutes and 15 seconds to 21 minutes and 5

seconds. The diagram below illustrates the situation.

To keep just this section (cropping it), you will:

• Locate this ﬁ le via Browse hard disk in the Music application.

• From the action icons, select the File Management action icon and then select Edit .

• In the edit mode, set the Cut In point (12:15 in our example). This will remove the part of the ﬁ le BEFORE the

desired segment.

• Now set a Cut Out point (21:05 in our example. Please note: As you have cut part of the ﬁ le, this position will

actually be earlier in the ﬁ le now).
