Recording A Digital Source In The Insert Mode; Preparation For Recording; Recording - Fostex DV40 Operation Manual

Recording a digital source in the INSERT mode

In the following description, we assume to perform recording from the end point of the cur-
rent audio file, as in the description of the "Recording an analog source in the INSERT mode"
described earlier.
Tips:
In the INSERT mode, recording is made to an existing audio file. Therefore, set the [AUDIO FILE], [TR MODE] and
[SAMPLING FREQ] switches to the appropriate positions that match the audio file.
If you set any of these switches inappropriately, the switch position name flashes on the display for warning.

1. Set the [CONTROL] select switch to "LOCAL".
2. Set the [INPUT] select switch to "DIGITAL".
3. Select the digital input tracks using the "D. IN Tr?" menu in the Setup mode, if necessary.
The "D. IN Tr?" menu is initially set to "Auto", in which the track numbers correspond to the input
numbers. See "Chapter 15: Setup mode" for details about the "D. IN Tr?" menu.
4. Set the [CLOCK] switch to "DIGITAL".
"DIGITAL" and "-EXT-" light up in the "CLOCK" section on the display, showing that the system clock is
derived from the digital input signal.
If you wish to make the unit slaved to a video or word clock, select the [CLOCK] switch to "VIDEO" or
"WORD" appropriately.
5. Press the [AUDIO READY - INSERT] key to turn on the INSERT indicator.
If you want to record time code simultaneously, press the [TC RDY] key to turn on the indicator.

You do not need to adjust the input level for digital recording.
You can check digital input levels from the level meters by activating the input monitor mode.
