protect your tape.

Notes on DAT cassettes

• Unlike conventional analog cassettes, playback and

recording are applicable on one side of the cassette

• Under normal usage, the construction of the DAT

cassette prevents undesirable entry of dust and

foreign particles. Do not open the DAT cassette

unnecessarily.

• Do not insert items into the holes on the reverse

side of the DAT cassette.

To prevent accidental operations

Recording

Refer to page 22 for “Connecting with Other Equipment for Recording”.

Locating the point at which to begin

recording

The absolute time is automatically written

simultaneously while recording.

The absolute time is indicated as the length of time

from the beginning of the tape, and is useful in

determining the elapsed time from the beginning of

the tape. If you wish to continue to record on a

partially recorded tape, make sure that you initially

locate the end of the previous recording prior to

resuming recording from that point to avoid leaving

any unrecorded segment unnecessarily. Once the

absolute time is written, it cannot be erased.

If you wish to insert a four-second blank segment

automatically, refer to page 25 for “Recording blank

segment—REC MUTE”.

To record from the beginning of the tape

Press the = 0 button to rewind the tape. “

”

flashes when the tape is rewound to the beginning.

To record on a partially recorded tape

Press the ) + button to locate the end of the

previous recording. “

” appears when the

end of the previous recording is located, and the

tape stops at the point.

Note

The absolute time may not

be written correctly in the

following cases.

• When recording on a

partially recorded tape

containing an

unrecorded segment

(i.e., a portion of the

tape that has never been

recorded).

• When recording on a

partially recorded tape

for which the absolute

time has not been

written originally.

Note

Do not press the p STOP

button when “ ” is

displayed. If it is pressed,

the absolute time will

become “--H--M--S” and

will not be written

thereafter.

Recording

To record relatively low sounds

Lower the recording level (in the manual recording

mode) and move the microphone as close as possible

to the sound source and then adjust the recording

level. Clear and optimum recording with minimal

noise interferences will be achieved.

Choosing microphones for better recording

The recording is affected by and is dependent upon

the type of microphones used. For better recording,

use the optional ECM-MS957 or ECM-MS907

microphone.

Compatible microphones

• Optional plug-in power type microphones are

compatible for this tape-corder.

• Optional auto power supply type microphones are

not compatible for this tape-corder.

Tip

• When the tape-corder

records to the end of the

tape, it rewinds the tape

automatically to the

beginning and stops.

(Auto-rewind function).

Notes

• The unit will not enter the

low-power consumption

mode during the

recording monitor mode,

even when using the unit

on batteries.

• Changing the sampling

frequency while

recording may cause

temporary sound dropout

to be recorded.

• Noise may be recorded if

you set the MIC/LINE IN

switch during recording.

• Noise may be recorded

when the display light is

turned on while

recording. In this case,

turn it off.

• If appears when

the recording mode is set

to AUTO (AGC), set the

MIC ATT to 20dB or

move the microphone

away from the sound

source.
