5 – Recording—Automatic track division
36 TASCAM CD-RW402 Owner’s Manual
5 Turn the MULTI DIAL to change the A_TRACK
value between ON and OFF.
6 Press the MULTI DIAL to make the setting and
leave the menu. The
A-TRACK
indicator shows
in the display when the function is active.
Automatic track division can be turned on or off
while recording is taking place.
NOTE
When recording certain types of material (e.g. certain
types of classical music or spoken word) through the
analog connections, since the track divisions are
determined by relative silence, it is possible that spu-
rious track divisions will be inserted. Under these
conditions, it may be better to use manual track divi-
sion (“Manual track division” on page 32).
However, if recording through a digital connection, the track
number will be incremented only when a track division sig-
nal is received.
A fall and subsequent rise in volume alone when recording
digitally from CD, MD or DAT is not sufficient to trigger an
automatic track increment.
You may find it helpful to use the track restriction
facility (see “Restricting the number of tracks” on
page 32) together with the automatic track division.
For instance, if you have recorded two albums on one
DAT tape, and you wish to make two separate CDs
from this tape, you can use the
MULTI DIAL to set the
number of tracks to the number of tracks comprising
the first album.
When the final track of the first album has been
recorded, the unit automatically performs the PMA
writing procedure and enters stop mode.
NOTE
Note that the track division information may not be
output by some models of CD player.
Increasing the “watch” time
It is possible to set a fixed time after the detection of
a signal over the trigger level before the start of a
track.
This can be used when making a disc of a live classi-
cal recording, for example, when the members of the
audience all cough between movements before the
conductor starts his downbeat, for example.
The time can beset from 1 second to 6 seconds in sin-
gle-second increments.
