— Time Machine Recording

When recording from an FM or satellite
broadcast, the first few seconds of material are
often lost due to the time it takes you to ascertain
the contents and press the record button. To
prevent the loss of this material, the Time
Machine Recording feature constantly stores the
most recent audio data in a buffer memory. This
lets you record the sound from 6 seconds before
starting recording, as shown in the illustration
below:
