In the MDR24/96 and HDR24/96, Playlists are that part of a Project that keeps track of all of your recording and editing, and controls what you hear when you hit Play. The HDR24/96 supports multiple Playlists while the MDR24/96 supports only one. If an HDR24/96 Project is played back on the MDR24/96, the MDR24/96 will play back the last Playlist saved in the HDR24/96 Project.

Monitoring

The Monitor Mode buttons determine what you hear from the MDR24/96 Tape Outputs. The MDR24/96 offers several familiar monitoring modes to facilitate rehearsal, tracking, and overdubbing.

All Input

All Input is used for rehearsal and level setting. When All Input is on, both armed and unarmed tracks monitor their inputs, and the Auto Input setting has no effect.

To enable All Input:♦Press the All Input button. The LED above thebutton when All Input is on.

ALL

INPUT

Auto Input

Auto Input is used for recording. Auto Input affects only tracks that are in Record Ready (“armed”). Tracks that are not armed only monitor the playback of previously recorded audio. All Input overrides Auto Input. To use Auto Input, All Input must be turned off.

When Auto Input is On, armed tracks monitor their inputs in Stop, Fast Forward, Rewind, and Record. In Play, you hear only what’s already recorded on the tracks. This mode is used primarily for tracking and overdubbing, where you want to hear what’s been previously recorded on the track before the punch-in and after the punch-out. During the punch, you hear what is presently being recorded. Auto Input On is the default mode when you power up the MDR24/96.

When Auto Input is Off, armed tracks always monitor their inputs. This mode is used primarily for rehearsal and tracking, where you want to always hear what you’re playing rather than what’s already recorded on that track.
