<Note>: You can make the pull up/down setting only when the clock reference is set to “INT”. If you select “UP/DW” when any external clock reference (“WORD”, “VIDEO” or “DIGITAL”) is selected, “Void!” is shown and you cannot make set- ting.

Next file name setting (“ NEXT ” of the status information area)

You can set the next file name while the unit is in the record ready mode (i.e. the [SAFE/ READY] key is set to ON).

When turning on the [SAFE/READY] indicator, the next file name and disk remaining time are shown on the Home screen. By pressing the [QUICK SET] key in this condition, you can make settings of items in the status information area. Use the [MENU] dial to select "NEXT ".

This item defines the name of the audio file created when starting recording next time. The next file name is set according to the "default file name", which is initially "SCENE NAME + TAKE No.". In the example above, the next file name is set to "SCENE_001.wav".

By selecting "NEXT " and pressing the [ENTER/YES] key, the display automatically brings up the screen for the "Def. file name" menu item in the "SYS SETUP" menu of the MENU mode.

In this screen, you can edit the default scene name and take number (by default, "S" of "SCENE" flashes).

You can edit the character at the cursor position using the [MENU] dial (or alphanu- meric keys). Up to 18 characters can be entered.

You can move the cursor position using [SKIP/CURSOR ] keys.

Pressing the [CLEAR/ FALSE START ] key repeatedly clears all the characters behind the cur- sor position.

After entering the desired scene name, pressing the [ENTER/YES] key confirms your setting, while the screen prompts you to enter the take number.

Enter the desired take number with the similar manner, and press the [ENTER/YES] key to confirm your setting.

After completing editing, press the [STOP/HOME] key to exit the MENU mode.

<Note>: The file name mode for the default file name is set to "Take" by default. You can set it to "Date" if you want. When setting it to "Date", the realtime clock data is reflected to a file name. See "Default file name setting" on page 115 for details.
