1. Record track select keys [RECORD TRACK (1 - 8)]

These keys enable you to select SAFE or READY for a recording track. Pressing the key once will cause the corresponding track to enter the READY mode, and the lamp of the key you pressed to flash. Pressing the key again will cause the corresponding track to enter the SAFE mode, and the lamp to turn off. When you start recording on a track in READY mode, the flashing lamp remain lit.

If you press only the RECORD button with a track in READY mode, you can monitor the signal input to the READY track so that you can adjust the recording level. To cancel this input monitoring status, press the RECORD button again. This puts the VR800 in playback monitoring mode.

You can also use these select keys to select tracks to Copy & Paste, Move & Paste, Erase and other editing features, as well as to execute the digital scrubbing.

Note: You can record on real tracks 1–8 in real-time, but not on additional tracks 9–24. If you are using an MO drive as the current drive, you can record only two tracks simultaneously. If you try to record more than two tracks by setting them to READY mode, [Track Over !] appears and READY mode will cancel.

Refer to page 24 for more information on playback monitoring

and input monitoring.
