To Partially Erase a File
You can erase a selected part of a file.
1
Choose the file from which you
want to erase a part.
(See Steps 1 and 2 in “Playing” ( P.15).)
2
Press the PLAY button to play the
file.
3
Press the PLAY button once again
where you want to start erasing.
The recorder pauses.
4
Press the ERASE button.
The recorder starts playback
automatically, and the display shows the
total recording time of the file being played
and “ERASE” alternately.
5
Press the ERASE button once
again where you want to stop
erasing.
The erase starting point (time) set in step
3 and the ending point (time) set in this
step appear on the display for 8 seconds
alternately.
6
Press the ERASE button once
again.
When “ERASE DONE” appears after
“PARTIAL ERASE! ”, partial erasing is
completed.
Notes
When the recorder finishes playback of the current
track before you press the ERASE button, the erase
starting point (time) and ending point (time) alternate
on the display for 8 seconds, similar to Step 5.
Locked files cannot be erased.
A SmartMedia memory card with a write-protect seal
attached to it cannot be erased.
Using the Variable
Control Voice
Actuator (VCVA)
When the microphone senses that sounds have
reached a preset volume, the built-in Variable
Control Voice Actuator (VCVA) starts recording
automatically, and stops when the volume
drops.
Particularly helpful for extended recording, the
VCVA not only conserves memory by turning
off recording during silent periods, but also
makes playback more efficient and convenient.
1
Start recording with the VCVA
switch set to ON.
When the volume falls to a preset level or
lower, recording automatically pauses, and
“STANDBY VCVA” flashes on the display.
The record/play lamp glows when
recording starts and flashes when
recording pauses.
2
Using the VOLUME control, adjust
the start/stop actuation level.
The higher the VOLUME control is set, the
more sensitive the start/stop level
becomes, allowing recording to
automatically begin at a quieter level.
Notes
The start/stop actuation level also varies depending
on the selected microphone sensitivity mode (
P.14).
To ensure successful recordings, prior testing and
adjustment of the start/stop actuation level is
recommended.
