Items That Can Be Saved Or Loaded As Song Data; Notes For Digital Audio Recorder To Be Used; <Notes For Saving Data Using The S/Pdif Digital Signal - Fostex VF08 Owner's Manual

<Items that can be saved or loaded as song data>
•Memory data:
AUTO PUNCH IN/OUT data and Start/End/To points,
Scene memories 00 through 99, Marks 00 through 99 (only can be saved/loaded using SCSI)
•Timebase:
ABS, MTC or BAR/BEAT/CLK
•Setup mode:
Bar/beat setting, tempo setting, metronome on/off, preroll time, MIDI synchronization output signal
setting, MTC offset time, MTC offset mode, REC protect setting, slave mode on/off, and slave type setting
Fader fix mode setting, fader recall mode setting
<Items that cannot be saved or loaded as song data>
•On/off settings for auto play mode and auto return mode
•Vari pitch on/off and pitch data
•Setup mode:
DIGITAL IN and DIGITAL OUT settings, bar/beat resolution on/off and device ID
The VF08 song data only can be saved to or loaded from digital recorders that can handle 16 bit, 44.1 kHz
linear digital data with S/PDIF format (such as DAT recorders).
<Notes for saving data using the S/PDIF digital signal>
When saving all data including both real and
Additional track data using the S/PDIF digital
signal, note the following.
Only the data recorded within the time duration
between ABS 0 and REC END of the Real tracks is
saved. Therefore, if the recorded time of Additional
tracks is longer than the Real tracks, only the
Additional track data within the time duration
between ABS 0 and REC END of the Real tracks is
saved.
In the example shown on the right, the Additional
tracks have data from "00m 00s" to "10m 00s",
while the Real tracks have data from "00m 00s" to
"07m 00s".
If you are going to save all tracks, the Additional
track data from "00m 00s" to "07m 00s" will be
saved but the rest will not be saved.
In such a case, you can solve the problem by setting
the time length of saved data to 10 minutes by
using the "Save Length" screen mentioned later
(see "step 4" on page 83). Note that the maximum
save length is 59 minutes 59 seconds.
The other way to solve the problem is to exchange
the Additional track data and the Real track data
before saving data. You should be careful not to
lose the Additional track data in this operation.
See page 63 about the track exchange operation.
