Using Auto Rec Start & Track Increment

Recording can be started automatically, and track numbers incremented automatically
using the Auto Rec/Track function, which monitors the selected input source and starts
recording from Record Standby mode when the signal level exceeds the specified
threshold, and subsequently increments the track number when the signal level exceeds
the specified threshold after being below it for three or more seconds.
Auto Rec/Track cannot be used with Sync Recording.
The following illustration shows the procedure for recording with the Auto Rec/Track
function.
The Utility TRACK INC dB parameter is used to set the threshold level.
1Use the [UTILITY] button to select TRACK INC dB.
The UTILITY indicator lights up and the TRACK INC dB setting appears on the dis-
play.
2Use the [PREV] or [NEXT] button to set the TRACK INC dB parameter.
3Press and hold the [UTILITY] button, or press another button to cancel Utility.
4From stop, press the [REC] button to engage Record Standby mode.
See page 29 for more information on Record Standby mode.
5Press the [AUTO] button to turn on the Auto Rec/Track function.
The AUTO indicator lights up.
When the input signal level exceeds the specified threshold, recording starts automati-
cally. When the signal level exceeds the specified threshold after being below it for three
or more seconds, the track number is incremented automatically.
If the level of the input signal is below the specified threshold for 20 seconds or more,
recording stops. You can prevent this by pressing the [AUTO] button to turn off the
Auto Rec/Track function.
6Press the [AUTO] button again to cancel the Auto Rec/Track function.
The AUTO indicator goes out.
