• Playback of a file recorded in two-file mode

When playing back either one of two files recorded in two-file mode (“2+4” or “1+5”), the output assignment of the [ANALOG LINE OUT] connectors depends on the [REC TR] select switch position. The following table shows the relation between the track numbers (TR1 through TR6) of [ANALOG LINE OUT] connectors and the [REC TR] select switch position for each mode.

• When playing back either one of two files recorded in the “2+4” mode
“2+4”	When playing back the 2-track file, the signals are output from the “TR1” and “TR2”
	connectors.
position	When playing back the 4-track file, the signals are output from the “TR3” through “TR6”
	connectors.
Other than “2+4”	When playing back the 2-track file, the signals are output from the “TR1” and “TR2”
	connectors.
position	When playing back the 4-track file, the signals are output from the “TR1” through “TR4”
	connectors.
• When playing back either one of two files recorded in the “1+5” mode
“1+5”	When playing back the mono-track file, the signal is output from the “TR1” connector.
	When playing back the 5-track file, the signals are output from the “TR2” through “TR6”
position
	connectors.
Other than “1+5”	When playing back the mono-track file, the signal is output from the “TR1” connectors.
	When playing back the 5-track file, the signals are output from the “TR1” through “TR5”
position	connectors.

<Note>

You cannot play back both of two files recorded in two-file mode simultaneously.

Time code playback

Recorded time code is played back together with audio and can be output from the [TIME CODE OUT] connector.

To output recorded time code from the [TIME CODE OUT] connector, set the [TC OUT] switch on the top panel to “REPRO”.

You can also make setting of the following menus in the TC Setup mode according to the situation.

1.LTC start time setting (using the “Edit LTC start” menu)

2.TC output setting while paused (using the “Pause TC” menu)

3.Repro TC user bit setting (using the “TC Ubit” menu)

*See “Chapter 6: TC Setup mode” on page 81 for details about the TC Setup mode.

<Note>

If the [TC OUT] switch is set to “GEN”, always the internal TC generator time code is output from the [TIME CODE OUT] connector.

Cueing playback

In the cue mode, forward or backward cueing (at up to 2 x speed) is possible. During playback, pressing the [F FWD] (or [REW]) key enters the cue mode. The cueing speed gradually gets faster unit it reaches the 2 x speed.

To cancel the cue mode, press the [PLAY] mode.
