By using the

function keys to select the tracks directly.
Function keys which do not correspond to an
available track will be ignored, as will

NOTE
If the ALL setting is made when the individual track delay
settings are not identical, the value shown will be ----.
Adjusting the value using the cursor keys or function keys
will change this to the correct numerical value.

NOTE
Sample always refers to the actual frequency at
which the selected track is being recorded. At high sam-
pling frequencies, one sample is a shorter time than at
lower sampling frequencies.

Crossfade time
As mentioned earlier (6.6, "Punch-in and punch-
out"), digital punch recording requires that the origi-
nal and new signal be crossfaded over a short period
of time.
The factory default crossfade time for the DA-98HR
is 10 ms, and this can be adjusted in 10 millisecond
steps to a maximum of 200 ms.
For the most part, 10ms is an adequate value and will
produce seamless punches, but there may be times
(matching reverb settings, etc.) when a longer cross-
fade is required.

time. You can also use the function keys to

Vari speed (pitch control)
The speed of recording and playback (and hence the
pitch) of the DA-98HR can be adjusted to 6% above
or below normal speed in 0.1% steps.
NOTE
You cannot operate the pitch control when the DA-98HR is
slaved to another unit, or synchronized to an external word
sync clock (3.2.3, "Word sync clock connections") or to a
video clock (3.2.2, "Video connections").
