WOTiE 1: After repeated rehearsal, the R IN and R OUT cue
points ..might drift a bit from their original sonic references.
For this reason, always make a final check of the cue points
and re-set them as necessary before you make the actual
recording ('lake”}.
NOTE 2: If the mistake which you’re going to fix happens
near the end of the performance, there may be no need to
punch-out (you simply punch-in and continue until the end
of the performance). In which case, you need not enter a
punch-out cue point.
wore 3: When the 280 is in the normal record mode (press
RECORD and PLAY simultaneously), the AUTO REC com¬
mand will not be functional; consequently, pressing this key
after punch-in will not induce punch-out.
Wore 4: Any RECORD TRACK (24) not selected during
the “take” will enter the record ready mode (green LED) the
instant it reaches the punch-in point.
WOTE 5: If the Model 8051 foot switch is engaged during the
“take," it will have the same effect as a manual punch-out
command.
