HD-P2 ReadMe Software Timecode Indicator Behavior In order to make it easier to know what timecode/ transport state the HD-P2 is in at a glance, the TIMECODE indicator behavior has been changed as below compared to what is described in the Owner's Manual. Indicator State Comment Off : TIMECODE key disabled, non- timecode operation Fast Blink : TIMECODE key enabled, bad LTC and Timecode Generator not running Slow Blink : TIMECODE key enabled, good LTC or Timecode Generator Transport On : TIMECODE key enabled, good LTC or Timecode Generator Tranport NOTE • Whenever the TIMECODE indicator is off or fast blinking, timecode is not being used. • When the TIMECODE indicator is blinking slowly or on, then timecode is good but the Transport is stopped. • When timecode is good and the Transport is engaged (play, record, or waiting for trigger) the indicator is on solid. Creating A New Project Following are the steps to create a new project: 1. Go to the Change/New Project screen • MENU + PROJECT from the top panel • "N" from a PS/2 keyboard 2. Select Create New Project 3. Select the project template to use 2 4. Name the new project 5. Confirm • SELECT from the top panel • ENTER from a PS/2 keyboard . Jam Sync In the Timecode Settings window, there is setting to enable/disable Jam Sync. This is essentially sets the HD-P2 to operate as if Infinite Freewheel is enabled. It should be noted that a "re-jam" (connection of a timecode source) will not interrupt a play or record operation. Re-jamming timecode must be done with the HD-P2's transport in Stop. When Jam Sync is enabled, it is not possible to enter the Freewheel menu. Pre-record Bar Following is further explanation of the use of the pre-record bar in addition to what is already documented: This bar represents the internal buffering between the media and the HD-P2's audio engine. As the buffer fills up, the bar is filled in from left to right. While recording (or in pre-record) this bar shows how much data, if any, is waiting to be written to the media. Typically the bar will be at or near empty as incoming audio is continually written to the media. It is possible to know when the media is having a hard time keeping up if this bar continues to fill up over time and never goes down. Eventually the buffer fills up and recording is stopped with a buffer overrun warning. During playback the bar represents audio read from the media and queued for playback. Depending on the sample rate, the HD-P2 fills 1/4 to 1/2 of the buffer. If the buffer becomes empty this can be a good indication that the media
