meter and output from tape to source and back again,
but
won't
actually
record.
What
you
hear
in your
monitor mix will be the same as during recording; so if
the first in-out points aren't correct, you'll hear it and
can CLEAR the old points and try again until you've got
exactly what you want.
CAUTION:
Although the advanced
circuitry of the
TSR-8 allows gapless punch-in on the tape, there is still
the distance between
the erase and record heads to be
compensated
for. Depending
on tape speed, the time
from a punch
point to the actual in/out is 1/15th or
1/8th of a second.
A few practice runs will get you
accustomed to the timing of punching in.
