By changingthe DELAY setting, you can change the “record start”point.While recording, if the input signal stays below the synclevel for the duration specified by STOP TIME (default:5 seconds), the SS-CDR1 will automatically switch tothe record-ready condition.SYNC LEVELSTOP TIMEREC readyTimeLevelNOTEIf you set the STOP TIME to INF, the record-pausestate will not be entered even though the input signalcontinuingly falls below the sync level.To defeat Sync Record, press the remote’s SYNC REC key.When the sync level is too high:• If the sync level setting is too high, you may have prob-lems such as failing to capture the beginning of a songthat begins with a low volume.SYNC LEVELLevelThis part of the trackmay not be recordedTimeRecording startsIf the sync level is too low:• Sync recording will not begin if the source you’rerecording has a high noise level, so that the sync level isexceeded immediately when you enter the record-readystate.LevelSYNC LEVELTimeNoise is higherthan thresholdStart of track is not registered
