Synchronized recording

The synchronized recording function enables recording
to start automatically when the start point of the record-
ing source is detected, and to stop automatically when
the end point of the recording source is detected.
In the sound level screen, you can set a detection
threshold to trigger the start and end points of the
source. (See "Setting the sound threshold level (
LEVEL )" below.)
You can also rehearse synchronized recording. Pressing
the SYNC switch on the rec page of the virtual front panel
repeatedly will cycle the function through off, rehears-
al, and on.
Recording starts and stops under the following condi-
tions:
• If a CD, DAT or MD is the S/PDIF recording source,
recording starts when the signal level rises above the

more of "below-threshold" signal is received, fol-
lowed by a signal above the threshold.
If the sound immediately starts at a loud level,
recording will not start.

Synchronized recording starts when the
DV-RA1000HD detects audio signal level that goes
above a specified sound threshold level.
Select the threshold level from the following options:
–72dB, –66dB, –60dB, –54dB, –48dB, –42dB, –36dB,
–30dB, –24dB
NOTE
• The threshold level is also used for the auto cue
function (see "Auto cue" on page ) and auto-
matic track increment in level mode (see "Auto-
matic track increment in level mode" on page ).

is lower than – dB, the DV-RA1000HD will use
