To record the recording date and time
Once the built-in clock is set, the date and time of
recording will automatically be recorded on the tape along
with the audio signal. When playing the tape back later,
you can display this information to check when the tape
was recorded.
To check the date and time being recorded, press the
PRESENT button to display the current date and time.
Note
If you use another DAT deck to record subcodes (using the
renumbering function, etc.) on a tape initially recorded on
this unit, the recording date and time data may be erased
from those sections of the tape.

In addition to the usual recording/playback heads, this unit
is also equipped with heads for after-monitoring.
This
allows you to monitor the recorded sound immediately after
it has been recorded on the tape, and enables you to
switch between the source sound and the recorded sound
during recording to check the actual effect of level settings
and sound quality adjustments with your own ears.
You
can hear the source sound by setting the REC MONITOR
switch to SOURCE, and you can monitor the recorded
sound by setting the switch to TAPE. During playback, the
tape sound is selected automatically regardiess of the
switch position.
If your amplifier has a monitor switch, set it
to the TAPE position.
