[. . . ] D00539600A DA-98HR Digital Multitrack Recorder OWNER'S MANUAL Ü ÿ Y This appliance has a serial number located on the rear panel. Please record the model number and serial number and retain them for your records. Model number Serial number CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL. The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. [. . . ] 3 You can press the AUTO MON key so that the indicator goes out and normal monitoring modes are now in effect (5, "Monitoring modes"). However, leaving the unit in AUTO MONITOR mode may be more useful while recording. TASCAM DA-98HR 39 7 ­ Advanced operations 7. 1 Autolocation the bottom line of the display screen. As you move the cursor between Memo 1 and Memo 2, the value shown will change appropriately. Press ESCAPE when you have finished checking. 2 To edit the points, move the cursor to Memo 1 or Memo 2 and press ENTER to select the location point to edit. Memo 1 The DA-98HR contains two location memories accessible through the LOC 1 and LOC 2 keys(O and R). These also provide a "AB repeat" facility, which allows you to rehearse part of a mixdown, for instance (see 7. 2. 5, "Repeat function"). These two location memory points are referred to as "MEMO 1" and "MEMO 2". In addition to these two location memories, the DA98HR can also store 10 more location memories, which are accessed through the function keys (Fthrough O). As with the punch recording points (6. 6, "Punch-in and punch-out"), it is possible to set and edit these points in a number of ways. 00:04:12:12 29DF 7. 1. 1 Setting MEMO 1 and MEMO 2 "on the fly" 3 Use the Á and Ó keys to select the field you wish to edit (hours, minutes, seconds or frames) and the § and ¶ keys to change the value, or you can edit the whole time value together (4. 1. 4, "Editing values"). You can also use the function keys to enter the value directly, as described in 4. 4, "Using the function keys as number keys", or the dial to adjust the values (4. 1. 7, "Using the dial to change values"). This can be done regardless of the current status of the tape transport (playing, recording, winding, stopped, or shuttle). 1 Press the MEMO 1 or MEMO 2 key: J or P. The current tape position will be stored to the appropriate location memory (MEMO 1 or MEMO 2). The display screen will indicate that the location memory point has been stored. Position location saved memory in 7. 1. 3 Setting the location pre-roll time When you locate to a location memory (whether it is one of the MEMO 1 and 2 points or the 10 "function key" memories), the tape will stop at the memorized location point, minus a pre-defined pre-roll time. As shipped, the DA-98HR's default location pre-roll time is 0 seconds. You can edit this to a value between 0 seconds (the tape will locate to the exact location point) and 59 minutes, 59 seconds, in 1 second increments. NOTE 10:03:12:24 ABS 7. 1. 2 Checking, editing and manually entering MEMO 1 and MEMO 2 This pre-roll time is independent of the punch pre-roll time (6. 6. 5, "Editing the preroll and postroll times"). The checking, editing, and manual entry of the MEMO 1 and MEMO 2 location points are all essentially the same operation. Location points can be edited and entered to frame accuracy. 1 Go to menu group 0: Delay In Patch Spd Memo Memo Loc 1 2 Pre 29DF 1 Go to menu group 0, move the cursor to Loc Pre, and press ENTER.
