Using Control Buttons

The control buttons placed at the bottom of the Record dialog work the same as similar buttons in an analog tape deck

- PLAY button: when pressed plays back the recorded soundfile starting from the position indicated by the time counter. The number of the counter increases as the soundfile is played.

- RECORD button: when pressed, records in a soundfile starting from the position indicated by time counter. Note that recording starts as soon as the RECORD button is pressed, i.e. there is no need to additionally press PLAY (which is typical of analog tape decks).

If recording is in progress, the red indicator placed on the RECORD button burns continuously. When recording is paused the light starts to blink.

- PAUSE button: when pressed prior to recording or playing, it activates the volume meters. When pressed during playback or recording, it suspends the corresponding action (the suspended activity is resumed once the PAUSE button is pressed again).

- STOP button: when pressed, stops the current activity.

- FAST FORWARD (or CUE) button: can be used to increase the value of the time counter. In order to instantly jump to the end of the recording, click on this button while holding down the CTRL key.

- FAST REVERSE (or REWIND) button: can be used to decrease the value of the time counter. In order to instantly jump to the beginning of the recording, click on this button while holding down the CTRL key.

- TIMER RECORDING button: can be used to program timer recordings.
