AUTO MARK

AUTO MARK mode automatically places a mark when recording starts from rec-pause status.

In silent skip recording mode as well, a mark is placed every time when recording is resumed detecting sound from the rec-pause status made by silence.

The total quantity of mark is displayed for one second istead of track number (TRACK icon turns off). After one second, the display resumes track number display (TRACK icon turns on).

Pressing AUTO MARK key turns on and off AUTO MARK mode. When auto marking mode is on, "A.MARK" icon is displayed.

For operation to set Auto Mark mode, refer to "Recording Behavior Setting" on page xxx.

Note

Since the maximum number of marks in a card is 255, when rec-pause occurs after 255 marks were placed by auto marking, auto marking mode is automatically removed. "A.MARK" icon turns off, and mark full message "FUL –p 255" is displayed for 3 seconds. Silent skip works after this as well, but a mark would not be put anymore.

When a mark is placed, the total quantity of mark is displayed (total quantity of mark = 192)
