Recording An Analog Source In The New File Mode; Preparation - Fostex DV40 Operation Manual

Recording an analog source in the NEW FILE mode

When performing recording in the NEW FILE mode, an audio file is newly created automati-
cally and the recording is made from the beginning (ABS 0) of the new file. Note that you
cannot record to a "Tape mode" file or an existing "Normal mode" file in the NEW FILE mode.
In the following description, we assume that we are going to record an analog audio source in
stereo to a DVD-RAM disk just after formatted in the Normal mode.
<Note>
The first time you make recording to a disk just after formatted, the maximum recording size of
the audio file to be created is 2GB (the maximum recording time depends on the track mode and
Fs/bit settings). If the recording size exceeds 2GB during recording, the DV40 automatically stops
recording.
Connection to external devices
1. Connect the external source outputs to the [TR 1] and [TR 2] connectors of the [ANALOG INPUT
BALANCED] section of the unit.
The connectors used varies depending on the track mode setting.
2. Select the Input level switches appropriately according to the source output level.
3. Connect a pair of monitor speakers with built-in amplifiers or an amplifier/speaker system to the [TR
1] and [TR 2] connectors of the [ANALOG OUTPUT] section of the unit.
Use either of BAL or UNBAL connectors according to the inputs of the monitor device.
