To store data in AUDITION mode, perform either
of the following.
• Stop the tape at the desired point while the SAFE
button is set to OFF.
In this case, after passing the frames specified by
the AUTO RETURN TIME setting, the data
returns to the previously stored point, all items
are dropped out. Then the SAFE button is
automatically set to ON.
• Set the SAFE button to ON while playing back
the tape.
In this case, the data returns to the previous
stored point in BUTT mode, and at the same time
all items are punched out of automation record.
Notes
• The SAFE button in AUDITION mode cannot cancel
the current data but it does in certain other modes.
When using the AUDITION mode, be sure to save
the title or copy it to the other automation data buffer
(A or B) in advance, so that you can return the data to
the previously stored state, if necessary.
• When the AUDITION mode is cancelled, TOUCH
HOLD, WRITE HOLD and SAFE buttons are set to
OFF. At the same time all items held in WRITE
become READY.
In modes other than AUDITION, if you perform an
undesired operation as a mistake, the automation data now
performed can be cancelled by setting the SAFE button to
ON. For details on the SAFE button function in other
modes, see notes on page 78.
