Recording An Analog Source In The Insert Mode; Preparation For Recording; Recording - Fostex DV40 Operation Manual

Recording an analog source in the INSERT mode

In the INSERT mode, recording is made to an existing audio file. You can overwrite the file from the
beginning or in the middle of the file, as well as make recording following the end of the file.
In the following description, we assume to perform recording from the end point of the current audio
file. In the followingdescription, we assume that we are going to record a stereo analog audio source
from the [ANALOG INPUT] [TR1] and [TR2] connectors to a DVD-RAM disk loaded in the tray.
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.
