Searching for the Last Rec IN and OUT Points

When you record or rehearse, the start and end points of the recording are automatically stored
as the LAST REC IN and OUT points. When the IN and OUT points have been set, IN and OUT
appear on the display. You can use the LAST REC SEARCH [IN] and [OUT] buttons to locate
these points. This is useful for checking these points. You can adjust the position of the IN and
OUT points in one frame steps. See Adjusting Markers on page 38 for more information. The
IN and OUT points are not remembered when a disc is ejected or MD4 is turned off.
The LAST REC IN and OUT points are used with the Auto Punch In/Out function and the Off
Line Punch function. See Auto Punch In/Out on page 24 and Track-to-Track Copy on page 47,
respectively.
