Starting recording

•Press the [REC RDY] key to enter the record ready mode.

The display changes to show the input monitor screen, on which you can see the remaining recordable time and the number of the tracks on the disc.

You can check the input level for recording. When the analog input is selected, you can adjust the input levels for left and right channels using the [INPUT LEVEL] controls. See "Adjusting recording levels" described earlier in this chapter for details about how to adjust the input levels.

•Press the [RECORD] key to start recording.

When you start recording, the input monitor screen changes as the screen example below. While recording is in progress, the time indication is counted up, whereas the remaining recordable time is counted down (during recording, "" is shown beside the time indication).

<Note>: In order not to miss the beginning of the audio input source, we recommend starting the recorder first.

On the input monitor screen, the "TRK-01" field shows the name of the audio file currently recorded, while the "NEXT-R" field shows the name of the next audio file to be recorded. The file name depends on the setting of the "Default File Name" menu item of the "SYS SETUP" menu in the MENU mode (see page 75).

Stopping recording

•To stop recording, press the [STOP/HOME] key.

After finishing post-processing of recording ("Please Wait..." is shown on the display), the disc stops at the last recording position.
