Using the Silent Pause function

There has been no sound input for about 30 seconds during recording. The unit changes to recording pause after recording about 30 seconds of silence.

If the unit continues pausing for about 3 minutes after the Silent Pause Function activated, recording stops automatically.

Note that this function does not activate if the unit is Synchro-Recording from a CD on DECK A.

Tip

You can turn off the Silent Pause Function. For details, see “Using the Setup Menu” (page 28).

Insert the silence into the end of the song (The function of adding Post Gap)

You can insert the silence of 2 seconds between the songs, when recording more than two tracks at once. The silence is inserted according to the following situations.

•When recording is stopped.

•When the disc of DECK A changes to the next disc during Synchro-Recording.

To use the function of adding Post Gap

Set “Post Gap” of the setup menu to “On” during stop. For details, see “Using the Setup Menu” on page 28.

Using the SBM (Super Bit Mapping) function

When you record through the ANALOG IN jack, the SBM function enables you to record a 24-bit high quality sound source by converting it to a 16-bit source without reduction in sound quality. This is made possible by incorporating a noise-shaping filter in the 24-bit A/D converter of this unit, which has a frequency range designed to cover the range of human hearing.

During recording pause, press SBM. The indicator lights up.

When you press the button again, the function is canceled and the indicator turns off.

Notes

•You cannot change the setting while recording.

•When you record through the DIGITAL OPTICAL IN or DIGITAL COAXIAL IN jack, or when you make Synchro-Recording, the SBM function is automatically canceled.
