exact location point) and 59 minutes, 59 seconds,
in 1 second increments.

, and press
ENTER
.
2) Use the
LEFT
and
RIGHT
keys to select the field
you wish to edit (minutes or seconds) and the

You can also use the function keys to enter the
value directly, as described in 5.2.2, “Using the
function keys as number keys”.
When you go to a location point, the tape will now
locate to the location point, minus the value you
have just entered. For instance, if the location point
is at “00:12:04:03” and you have set a location
pre-roll time of 5 seconds, the tape will locate to
“00:11:59:03”.
8.1.4 Moving to MEMO 1 and MEMO 2
When you have set the location memories as
described above, you simply need to press the
LOC 1
or
LOC 2
keys ([22] or [23]) to move the
tape to these location points.
The display will show the location memory value
and the pre-roll time.
The tape will locate to the location memory minus
the location pre-roll time, as described above.
8.2 Function key location
memories
As explained earlier, the ten “soft” function keys
can be assigned to locate to memorized positions.
8.2.1 Storing a function key location
memory
In addition to the MEMO 1 and MEMO 2 memo-
ries, you can also assign 10 additional memories
to the function keys.
The function keys must be in “location memory”
mode (see 5.2, “Function key modes”).
The tape transport can be in any function (play,
record, stop, shuttle) when you store a memory
and assign it to a function key.
1) Press the
SHIFT
key.
The
SHIFT
indicator will start to flash.
2) Press the
LOC 2/PRESET
key [14]
3) Press the function key to which you want to
assign a memory.
The display screen will show the time of the loca-
tion memory after you have stored it to a function
key.
You can continue to press function keys to add
location memory points. If you are recording a
song, for example, you could run the tape from the
beginning of the song and use the function key
memories to mark the beginning of verses, cho-
russes, instrumental breaks, etc. In post-production
work, you could use this feature to mark important
points in the video soundtrack.
4) To use the function keys for their preset
functions as written on the front panel, press
SHIFT
again so that the
SHIFT
indicator goes
out.
8.2.2 Editing function key memories
Function key memories can be edited in the same
way as the MEMO 1 and MEMO 2 memories.
NOTE
This pre-roll time is independent of the punch pre-roll
time (see 6.6.4, “Editing the pre-roll and post-roll
times”).
