Advanced Recording; Setting The Trigger Level; Synchronized Recording - Tascam CC-222MKII Owner's Manual

During dubbing with auto track enabled, the trigger
level ("Setting the trigger level" on page 29) is fixed at
–24 dB and cannot be changed.
This mode cannot be entered if a recordable disc is not
loaded in the drive.
It is also possible to perform manual recording to
disc from the
RIAA PHONO

Advanced recording

These sections cover more advanced recording
techniques.

Setting the trigger level

The signal level which may be used with synchro-
nized recording operations (here called the "trigger
level" or "threshold") is set as below:
1 With a recordable disc loaded, press the
key until the display shows:

Synchronized recording

Synchronized recording basically means that record-
ing will begin automatically when a signal is
received, and will stop when the signal ends.
Use the key to select the synchronization
SYNC REC
mode. The synchronization mode determines the
automated start and stopping of recording when a
signal is received.
Repeated presses of this key cycle through the fol-
lowing modes:
• SYNC ALL
• SYNC 1
• SYNC OFF
as shown in the display.
To enable or disable synchronized recording:

NOTE
It is not possible to make manual recordings from the
RIAA PHONO source to tape.
Low numerical values of this setting (towards –24)
mean that it takes a louder signal to trigger the start
of the synchronized recording. A high numerical
value (towards –72) means that a relatively quiet sig-
nal will trigger the start of recording.
NOTE
When dubbing from tape to disc ("Dubbing from tape
to disc" on page 27) and auto track enabled, this level is
fixed at –30 dB. When dubbing from a RIAA PHONO
source with auto track on, the level is fixed at –24 dB.

abled. If is selected, the recording

The sync modes are related to the trigger level (as
