Storing a time to a locate point memory (CUE/MEMORY)
Using the [CUE POINT] or [MEMORY] key, you can store a desired point time to a locate point
memory, and use it to locate there later. You can also give desired names to them or clear the
data.
In the same way as with edit point memories, there are two methods for storing a time data to
a locate point memory; "on the fly" and "numerical entry".
<Notes>
• If you want to store a locate point based on LTC instead of ABS time, select the displayed time to LTC
using the [DISP TIME] key in advance.
• 99 CUE point memories (01 through 99) are available in the CUE bank.
The CUE point memories can be used only for the current audio file.
• 99 MEMORY points (01 through 99) are available in the MEMORY bank, however, you can freely store
a desired time to MEMORY points 04 through 99. MEMORY points 01 through 03 are reserved for the
specific points as below and data are automatically stored.
MEMORY 01: Last Play Memory
The last playback start time is automatically stored. This memory is overwritten each time playback
starts.
MEMORY 02: Last Record In
The last recording start time is automatically stored. This memory is overwritten each time recording
starts.
MEMORY 03: Last Record Out
The last recording end time is automatically stored. This memory is overwritten each time recording
ends.
The MEMORY point data are stored to the flash ROM in the unit, therefore, you can use the MEMORY
data with any audio files on any disks.
Tips:
If you change the current audio file to another one and store a time to a new MEMORY point, the MEMORY
point numbers used in the previous file(s) cannot be used, as shown below. however, All the MEMORY
points can be used with any audio files.
Audio File 01
Audio File 02
Audio File 03
In the diagram above, MEMORY points 04 through 07 were stored when Audio File 01 was selected.
however, you can use MEMORY points 04 through 11 with Audio File 01.
however, only the MEMORY points within the recorded area are effective, so MEMORY points 07 and 10
are not effective with Audio File 03.
If you select Audio File 03 and check MEMORY 07 or 10, "--H--M--S--F--SF" is shown.
MEMORY point data are not cleared when reformatting a disk. To clear unnecessary MEMORY point, see
"Clearing a CUE or MEMORY point".
As shown in the above drawings, if you have stored MEMORY point data on more than one audio file, the
MEMORY points are not always numbered in order of ABS time.
In the above example, the MEMORY points in order of ABS time are; MEMORY 08 -> 04 -> 09 -> 05 -> 11
-> 06 -> 12 -> 10 -> 07 .
Mem 04 Mem 05
Mem 08 Mem 09

Mem 07
Mem 06
