HD-P2 ReadMe is having a hard time keeping up with the audio rate. Should the buffer become empty, playback is stopped and a buffer underrun warning is shown. Auto Markers In addition to dropping markers on audio overs and timecode dropouts, the HD-P2 can drop markers in time increments from 1 minute to 5 minutes. Settings for all three Auto Markers modes are under the Auto Markers menu under the Project menu. No Fault Recording The HD-P2 transparently closes and re-opens audio files every 1.5 seconds while recording. This ensures data safety in the event of power loss or other unpredictable occurrence during recording. Disk Status The display and icon in the lower right of the LCD screen displays the time remaining available to record on the inserted media at the selected sample rate and bit depth in HH:MM format. Momentarily holding the STOP key will display the actual space remaining on the media Pull Up/Down Sample Rate Settings A pull up/down sample rate is always relative to the chosen time code rate. For example, when it is required to chase 30fps LTC but the project will eventually be pulled down to 29.97, a 30 Pull Up setting would be used providing an operating sample rate of the selected sample rate plus 0.1% while chasing 30fps LTC. Later, when chasing 29.97, the sample rate will be normal. The following 0.1% pull up/down rates are supported by the HD-P2: 23.976 24.00 24.975 25.00 29.97 30.00 Pull Down Pull Up Pull Down Pull Up Pull Down Pull Up If 1% or 4% pull up/down rates are required, the HD-P2 must be locked to an external clock source providing that rate. Pre-Record The pre-record buffer is not active when the HD-P2 is set to chase timecode. Reset Factory Defaults Under the Default Project Settings menu there is a selection to initialize all of the HD-P2's settings to their factory defaults. 3

In addition to dropping markers on audio overs
and timecode dropouts, the HD-P2 can drop
markers in time increments from 1 minute to
5 minutes. Settings for all three Auto Markers
modes are under the Auto Markers menu under

This ensures data safety in the event of power
loss or other unpredictable occurrence during
recording.
Disk Status
The display and icon in the lower right of the
LCD screen displays the time remaining available
to record on the inserted media at the selected
sample rate and bit depth in HH:MM format.

Reset Factory Defaults
Under the Default Project Settings menu there is
a selection to initialize all of the HD-P2’s settings
to their factory defaults.
Pull Up/Down Sample Rate
Settings
A pull up/down sample rate is always relative to
the chosen time code rate.
For example, when it is required to chase 30fps
LTC but the project will eventually be pulled
down to 29.97, a 30 Pull Up setting would be used
providing an operating sample rate of the selected
sample rate plus 0.1% while chasing 30fps LTC.
Later, when chasing 29.97, the sample rate will be
normal.
The following 0.1% pull up/down rates are
supported by the HD-P2:
23.976
Pull Down
24.00
Pull Up
24.975
Pull Down
25.00
Pull Up
29.97
Pull Down
30.00
Pull Up
If 1% or 4% pull up/down rates are required, the
HD-P2 must be locked to an external clock source
providing that rate.
Pre-Record
The pre-record buffer is not active when the
HD-P2 is set to chase timecode.
