HD-P2 ReadMe Max File Size This setting, under the Project Settings menu, allows the user to determine the maximum file size of a take (an individual audio file). The range of this setting is 512MB - 2GB and the default setting is 1.5GB. There may be times when smaller audio files are desired to exist within one project. For example, when individual takes may need to be burned to CD media as data. As always, the record/playback of audio file (take) transitions is seamless regardless of the setting of this menu. 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. 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 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. 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 Pre-Record The pre-record buffer is not active when the HD-P2 is set to chase timecode. 3
