Recording

A Start ID is a signal which
indicates the beginning of a
program (track). The tape-
corder searches the Start IDs to
locate the beginning of a
program (track) with the AMS
(Automatic Music Sensor)
function.

Tips
• To write the Start ID

manually during
recording, press the
START ID•ENTER
button. The Start ID is
written at the point
where the START
ID•ENTER button is
pressed regardless of
whether “AUTO-ID” is
displayed or not.

• You can only switch

AUTO-ID on or off
when START
ID•MODE is pressed
during recording,
recording monitor or
recording pause modes.

Note
• The buttons except the

p

 STOP button do not

work while 
is flashing.

When AUTO-ID is turned on, the Start IDs will be
written during recording on the basis of the output
level of the source. When AUTO-ID is turned off, the
Start IDs will be written during recording on the basis
of the existing ID information of the source.

Press the START ID•MODE
button on the main unit
repeatedly until “AUTO-ID”
appears (to turn on AUTO-ID)
or disappears (to turn off
AUTO-ID).

Begin the recording.
When the Start ID is
written, “

”

appears for a moment,
and then 

 flashes

for about 9 seconds
(about 18 seconds in the
LP mode).
