Creating a Sound MutedPortion (Record Muting)

1 During recording or record-pause mode, press the REC MUTE button where a sound muted portion is required.

The REC indicator flashes and the record muting is activated. After about 4 seconds, the REC indicator shows a steady light, and the 8indicator lights. The deck enters the record-pause mode.

2 To resume recording, press the

8PAUSE or 3(play) button. Recording resumes.

Using sound muted portion

If you intend to dub the DAT cassette onto an analog cassette tape, we recommend that you insert sound muted portions between selections on the DAT cassette. This will ensure that the AMS function of the analog cassette deck works correctly for the recorded tape.

Note

With DAT deck, the AMS function is realized by using the start ID code. (Page 29.)

Caution

To place a space on a DAT cassette, you must not advance the tape with the ¡or

3button. If a space is created this way, no absolute time code will be recorded on the succeeding area, and you cannot check the elapsed time of the tape.

To create a sound muted portion of more than 4 seconds

Keep the REC MUTE button pressed for as long as you want to make a recorded portion with no signals. After about 4 seconds, the REC indicator flashes rapidly. When you release the REC MUTE button, the deck enters the record-pause mode.

The interval between selections is indicated at the MARGIN display.

To create a sound muted portion of less than 4 seconds

Press the REC MUTE button, and then the 8PAUSE button while the REC indicator is flashing.

To start recording in the record muting mode

Press the REC button while the REC indicator is flashing.
