Trigger; P1 Trigger: Settings To Start Trigger Recording - Korg D1600mkII Owner's Manual

14. TRIGGER

Trigger Recording is a function that starts recording when
the volume of the input sound exceeds the threshold level
that you specify. For details, refer to "6. Other recording
methods" (→p.43).

Time at which recording begins
1. TriggerRec.................................................... [On, Off]
Turns the Trigger Recording function on/off.
On: Recording will begin when the
input audio exceeds the threshold level in record-ready
mode. If this is "On," the [TRIGGER] key will light.
Turn "TriggerRec" "On" and press the [REC] key (LED
blinking) to enter record-ready mode. When the input of
a channel whose [TRACK STATUS] key is set to Record
exceeds the threshold level, recording will begin auto-
matically.
Recording will not begin unless the input level
exceeds the threshold level in record-ready mode.
If recording does not begin when you expect, press
the [STOP] key or [REC] key to cancel record-ready
mode, and adjust the "Threshold" setting.
Off: Trigger recording will not
occur.
2. Threshold................................................. [000...100]
When trigger recording is used, this sets the input level
at which recording will begin. Recording will begin
when the input level exceeds this setting.
Normally, you should set this to as low a level as
possible without allowing noise to trigger recording.
The appropriate level will differ depending on the
input source. If recording begins too early or too late,
re-adjust this level.
3. PreTrigTime .......................................... [000...700ms]
When trigger recording is used, the D1600mkII can
record the sound that was heard immediately before
recording actually started.
Trigger recording will initiate recording when the input
signal exceeds the "Threshold" level, but this can mean
that the initial attack of the first note may be lost. In such
cases, you can increase the "PreTrigTime" so that the
earliest part of the sound (the part that is lower than the
threshold level) will also be included in the recording.

This setting is not valid for the beginning of the song.
Also, if you use trigger recording to continue
recording after the end of a previously-recorded
track, setting other than "000ms" will cause a
corresponding length of the previously-recorded
sound to be lost.
