Using Auto Time Stamp to add
track marks while recording
After you set the time interval in step 4,
the recorder will begin adding a track
mark whenever the time interval has
elapsed. For example, if an Auto Time
Stamp interval of 5 minutes is set, and 8
minutes of recording has already been
done, then a track mark will be added at a
point equivalent to 13 minutes (8 + 5)
after the start of recording, and every 5
minutes thereafter.
If, however, the Auto Time Stamp interval
is longer than the elapsed recording time,
then a track mark will be added when the
Auto Time Stamp interval has elapsed.
For example, if the Auto Time Stamp
interval is set at 5 minutes, but only 3
minutes of recording has been done, then
a track mark will be added at the 5-minute
point after the start of the recording, and
every 5 minutes thereafter.
z
"T" appears before the time display on the
recorder for track marks added by Auto Time
Stamp, and "T" appears after the time display
on the remote control.
Notes
• Automatic track marking by Auto Time Stamp
starts when you add a normal track mark to
the disc (i.e., by pressing T MARK or X,
etc.).
• The setting will be lost when the recording
stopped.
