Copy & Paste and Move & Paste

This section describes the Copy & Paste (or Move & Paste) details.

<Precaution>

*The data copied (or moved) on the clipboard is replaced with new data every time data is copied (or moved).

*Note that the data copied in the clipboard is replaced when pasting over the original data copied.

Executing Copy (or Move) and CLIP

1.Set the point to start COPY (or MOVE) and the point to start the PASTE feature.

Set the COPY (or MOVE) starting point to the [CLIPBOARD IN] key, the ending point to the [CLIPBOARD OUT] key, and the PASTE starting point to the [AUTO PUNCH IN] key.

For more details on how to set (store) to the memory key refer to page 34.

Flashing

3.Use the [CH STATUS/CH SEL] key to select the track to COPY (or MOVE).

Both mono tracks and multiple tracks (including ALL tracks) can be selected. During the Copy & Paste (or Move & Paste) process it is only possible to change the paste destination track of mono tracks or when copying(or moving) with two tracks that are odd and even number tracks situated next to each other. In any other case, when copying (or moving) multiple tracks, the data is pasted to the original copy site (or move) of the same track.

4.Press the [ENTER/YES] key.

Press the [ENTER/YES] key to complete the data copy (or move) process. “Completed!” appears on the display then the “Copy Paste” (or “Move Paste”) message flashes.

This means that the sound data has been copied (or moved) to the clipboard, and that the system is ready to proceed to the following paste process.

The recorder is ready to paste if there is no problem with the COPY/CLIP (or MOVE/CLIP) process. At this stage, it is possible to check the sound data in which COPY/CLIP (or MOVE/CLIP) was executed.

To check the data on the clipboard, refer to the instructions described in “Checking Data in the Clipboard”.

<Precaution>

•If COPY (or MOVE) is executed without selecting a track to COPY (or MOVE), then “Select Track!” will appear on the LCD with a flashing “Copy Clip!” (or “Move Clip!”) message. In this case, repeat the procedure by using the [CH STATUS/CH SEL] key to choose the track to COPY (or MOVE).

•If the CLIPBOARD IN point and CLIPBOARD OUT point is stored in the reverse time relationship when attempting to COPY (or MOVE), then a “Void In Point!” or “Void Out Point!” warning appears on the display and prevents any further process. In such case, reset the proper time relationship of the CLIPBOARD IN/ OUT points prior to COPY (or MOVE).

<Check the Clipboard Data>

Prior to pasting any sound data, follow the instructions below to check for the presence of any sound data copied (or moved) on the clipboard.

•Press the [PLAY] key while the [STOP] key is depressed.

The sound data copied or moved on the clipboard appears (if the data is copied “Copy Clip Play!” appears, and if it is moved data then “Move Clip Play!” appears), and that data is played (clipboard play).

To monitor the sound played, make the adjustments with the channel fader corresponding to the track copied (or moved). The [CH STATUS/CH SEL] key that was copied (or moved) flashes during playback. The recorder automatically stop when clipboard play is over.

•Press the [EDIT] key after checking the data.

When the earlier mentioned COPY (or MOVE) is completed, the LCD will then return to the same display (flashing “Copy Paste” or “Move Paste”).

5.Press the [ENTER/YES] key when “Copy Paste” (or “Move Paste”) is flashing.

The menu to select the paste repeat frequency appears (“Repeat = 01”), then “01” and “Sure?” flashes. (Note that “01” refers to paste once.) The [CH STATUS/CH SEL] key of the track copied (or moved) flashes.

6.Use the [CH STATUS/CH SEL] key to select the paste destination track.

•There is no need to select a track when pasting on the same track.

•The mono track is the only track in which the paste destination can be changed. The other condition in which the paste destination can be changed is when the data from two tracks (odd and even) next to each other (1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8, etc.) are copied (or moved) on the clipboard. The paste destination track can be changed by pressing the [CH STATUS/CH SEL] key in this case.
