Starting Recording With 6 Seconds Of Prestored Audio Data (Time Machine Recording) - Sony MDS-S39 Operating Instructions Manual

Starting Recording with
6 Seconds of Prestored Audio
Data (Time Machine Recording)
When recording from an FM or satellite broadcast, the
first few seconds of material are often lost due to the
time it takes you to ascertain the contents and press the
record button. To prevent the loss of this material, the
Time Machine Recording Function constantly stores
6 seconds of the most recent audio data in a buffer
memory so that when you begin recording the
programme source, the recording actually begins with
the 6 seconds of audio data stored in the buffer
memory in advance, as shown in the illustration below:
