7 − Recorder Fast forward and rewind On a tape recorder, you can use the fast forward and fast rewind keys to spool through a tape. A disk recorder like the 2488neo works in a somewhat different way. The forward and rewind keys can be used in the following ways: During playback When the unit is playing back material, if you press and hold either the F FWD or the REW key, the playback position moves forward or backward (depending on which key is being held down) at ten times the normal playback speed (as shown by the FF x10 or REW x10 in the home display. At this time, playback is muted, and the PLAY indicator flashes. Skipping to marks If you briefly press and release the F FWD key, the transport skips to the next mark. If you briefly press and release the REW key, the transport skips to the preceding mark. When you release the F FWD or REW key, playback starts at the position which has been reached. From the stop position When playback is stopped, you can press and hold the F FWD or REW key to start fast rewind or fast forward. The unit stops at the position where you release the key. NOTE You cannot perform this operation while recording. See "Mark functions" on page 51 for more about setting and using marks. Recording You can record after selecting the partition and the song. To start recording from the stopped state: 1 At least one track should be armed (press the REC key(s) of the track(s) on which recording is to take place). The REC keys(s) start to flash). Since tracks 13 to 24 are stereo tracks, they are always recorded simultaneously as paired tracks. 2 Press and hold down the RECORD key. 3 Press the PLAY key. Both the PLAY (green) and RECORD (red) indicators light, and the flashing REC indicator(s) light steadily. 4 Stop recording by pressing the STOP key. NOTE When a track is recording or is armed to record (the track REC key is lit or flashing), its track number appears in inverse on the home screen, as shown in the illustration. PUNCH recording To drop into record mode while playing back: 1 Arm one or more tracks by pressing their REC keys. Their indicators start to flash. 2 Start playing back a song by pressing the PLAY key. The PLAY indicator will light. 3 Press the RECORD key. The RECORD indicator will light, and the REC indicators of the armed tracks will also light. To end recording, press either the STOP key or the PLAY key (punch out). NOTE At least one track must be armed before you start to record. It is not possible to enter a "record ready" mode and press the REC keys of tracks to start recording. 49 TASCAM 2488neo
