D-160 Owner's Manual (Recording /Playback)

2. Default setting on the D-160

Before you start operating the D-160 or proceed to the next step, you may want to arrange the controls and switches to restore the initial setting so that you will not, for example, erase important data on a track by using incorrect settings.

In this manual, this procedure is called "setting defaults." For default settings, the controls and switches should be arranged as shown in the figure below.

Make it a rule to return to these default settings before you proceed to a new step.

*"FORMAT FIRST". You need to format the internal hard disk prior to start recording if a brand new hard disk drive has been installed. Refer to the explanation of the "Disk Format?" menu in the Setup mode. We recommend that you format the hard disk as often as possible before you start fresh recording on it.

However, remember that the format process will erase all of the recorded song data.

Outline of the Initial Settings:

*Turn all the RECORD TRACK select keys to "SAFE." (Track indication is turned off.)

*Auto Return/Auto Play mode is "OFF." (The AUTO RTN/AUTO PLAY LEDs are off.)

*Auto Punch mode is "OFF." (The REHEARSAL/TAKE LEDs are off.)

*The STOP button LED is lit.

*The STORE key and the RECALL keys are "OFF." (The STORE/RECALL LEDs are off.)

*"Digi. In?" is assigned to "L: - -, R: - -" in Setup mode.

*Setting a sampling rate for recording/playback (See 2-4.)

When the Recording Enabled/Disabled parameter in the Setup mode is set to "DISABLE rEc," pressing the RECORD button and the PLAY button will not start recording, and the unit will display "DISABLE rEc" on the panel. Be sure to set the mode to "EnAbLE rEc" to enable the recording function.
