Starting Recording With 2 Seconds Of Prestored Audio Data - Sony DHC-EX770MD Operating Instructions Manual

Starting recording
with 2 seconds of
prestored audio data
— Time Machine Recording
When recording from an FM or satellite
broadcast, the first few seconds of material
are often lost due to the time it takes you to
ascertain the contents and press the record
button. To prevent the loss of this material,
the Time Machine Recording feature
constantly stores 2 seconds of the most recent
audio data in a buffer memory. When you
start recording the sound source, the
recording actually starts with the 2 seconds of
audio data stored in the buffer memory in
advance, as shown in the illustration below:
