Locate Function; Storing Memory Data - Fostex D-160 Owner's Manual

Locate Function

The D-160 can immediately locate to any desired point .
That is, it can move the current time or function position of the recorder.
Available locate points are: memory data points (time or bar/beat/clock) stored in
the Memory keys (CLIPBOARD IN/OUT, AUTO PUNCH IN/OUT, AUTO RTN START/
END, and LOCATE keys), the beginning of a Program (ABS 0), and the end of a
recording (ABS END).
The D-160 is also equipped with an Auto function, which operates as an extended
Locate function, including Auto Play, Auto Return, and Auto Repeat functions.

1. Storing memory data

There are three methods by which you can store memory data: by grabbing a
desired time value in real-time when the recorder is playing back or stopped, by
editing and storing a desired data, by recalling previously-stored memory data,
changing it, and storing it.
These methods can also be used in the Auto Return function, Auto Punch In/Out
function, and the edit operations, such as Copy & Paste, Move & Paste, and Erase.
Try to become familiar with the methods described here.
Storing memory data in real-time
1. While the recorder is playing back (or stopped), press the HOLD/> key at the time value
(bar/beat/clock) you wish to store.
The time value of the point at which you pressed the HOLD/> key will be retained,
and the D-160 enter the edit mode. "LOCATE" will light on the display.
2. Press the STORE key. The STORE LED will light.)
3. Press the memory key to which you wish to store data.
The retained time value (bar/beat/clock) will be stored as memory key data,
and the Time Base display will be restored. The STORE LED goes off.
* To take a short cut (to skip Step 2), press the STORE key instead of the HOLD/> key
in Step 1.
Editing and storing data

(bar/beat/clock) you wish to store.

beat/clock), and use the JOG dial to edit them.
