3-5-1 What Is Assemble Recording?

In assemble recording, as in advance recording, the
digital audio signals and CTL signals are recorded
simultaneously, but unlike the case with advance
recording, the CTL address can be recorded
consecutively on the tape.
In order to be able to dub a new recording over two
previously recorded sections (insert recording), it is
necessary to use assemble recording.
In assemble recording there are two ways of adding the
CTL signal, as follows:
• Automatic assemble recording: The CTL signal
continues from where it was broken off.
• Forced assemble recording: The CTL signal is
overwritten from the beginning of the recording.
The unit is factory set to the automatic assemble
recording mode.
To select forced assemble recording, the setting of a
bit switch on the MC board must be changed.
For internal settings of the board, see "MC board" (page A-
20) in Appendixes, "Location and Function of Parts."
