Scrub

When the transport is already stopped, pressing and holding the STOP button for one second puts the transport into scrub mode. The STOP and PLAY LEDs light simultaneously and Entering scrub mode appears in the display. Use the REWIND and FAST FWD buttons to scrub the transport forward and backward. Press STOP or PLAY to return to normal mode.

Play

PLAY puts the SDR24/96 into play from any state (as if you didn’t know). PLAY also punches out of record and cancels master record standby while leaving the Transport in play.

Record

The master RECORD button must be pressed along with PLAY to enter record mode. The master record LED blinks if there are no tracks armed (Record Ready buttons), or not within the Autopunch zone when Autopunch is activated (see page 37). When One Button Punch is activated (SETUP:Record:Page Right:RecBt), recording can be toggled during play by pressing only the RECORD button.

Serial 9-Pin

The SERIAL 9-PINconnector on the rear panel of the SDR24/96 is provided for connecting transport controllers that use the EIA RS-422 serial data communication standard. It supports the Sony® 9-Pin protocol. The following transport functions can be controlled through the Serial 9-Pin connection: Stop, Play, Rec, Fast Forward, Rewind, and Scrub.
