RED

and
tracks
are
selected
(armed)
by
the
RECORD
SELECT
switches.

in
record-pause,
or
record-play
mode,

switches.
@) PAUSE
During
playback
or

button
again.
This

called
“releasing”

to
start
and
stop
the
tape
more
quickly
and
accurately
than

possible
with

PLAY.
In
record
mode,
engaging
pause
will
stop
the
transport,
but
still
allow
you
to
monitor
source
signals
on
the
VU
meters,
whereas
pressing
stop
will
not
allow
you
to
monitor
source
signals.
