Chapter 5: Recording/Playback

Error tone output setting

During recording, if the unit encounters the following problems, the error tone is output for warning.

1.A write error happens during recording.

2.The input amplifier is clipped during recording.

3.The battery voltage drops below the specified level.

4.The remaining volume of a disk (or partition) becomes less than the specified volume.

You can make error tone output setting via the "Error tone" item in the "SYS SETUP" menu of the MENU mode (see page 160).

Mixer settings

The mixer section provides the function for mixing four analog input sources to the stereo bus. You can record the stereo bus signals to stereo L/R tracks. (When you record a digital input signal, the signal is directly recorded to the stereo L/R tracks without being routed to the mixer section.)

The four input channels of the mixer section provide controls for the analog input signal, including the filter, limiter, etc.

The following diagram shows the signal flow of the mixer section of the PD204.

Read the explanation described in the following pages and make mixer settings appropriately.
