4. Set the desired pitch data using the Jog dial.

Rotating the Jog dial enables you to hear changes in playback speed. Rotating the Jog dial clockwise increases the speed, and rotating it counter-clockwise decreases the speed.

To continue the playback with the Vari Pitch function on, press the [EXIT/NO] key. This recorder exits Vari Pitch data edit mode, indicates the previous Time Base display, and continues playing with the Vari Pitch you just set.

5.To turn off Vari Pitch mode, press the [VARI PITCH] key.

The VARI PITCH LED turns off, the Vari Pitch function is cancelled, and this recorder resumes playback at normal speed.

6. If you wish to play back data at the current Vari Pitch again, press the [VARI PITCH] key to turn the LED on.

You can turn the Vari Pitch function on and off and edit the pitch data while this recorder is playing or stopped, but not during recording.

However, if the Vari Pitch function has already been turned on and the pitch data was specified before you started recording, this recorder will record using the current Vari Pitch.

<Notes>

•Even if the pitch data is 0.0% (no speed change), pressing the [VARI PITCH] key will still turn on the VARI PITCH function.

The speed is not changed, but the Vari Pitch is turned on.

•The Vari Pitch function is automatically turned off under the following conditions:

1. You have turned off and on the power to this recorder. The pitch data will be reset to 0.0%.

2. You must press the [EXECUTE/YES] key while holding down the [SHIFT] key to turn the "SLAVE mode" on (the setting pitch data remains).

3. You set "Digital In" of the SETUP mode to a “Sync” mode ("SPDIF: Sync" or "adat: Sync") and the recorder is locking to the external clock from DIGITAL IN or WORD IN. In consequence, “DIGITAL” and “EXT” indicators light in the display.
