4.REMOTE
PEDAL
RC-30P.
An
_
accessory
pedal
is
available
that
will
allow
you
to
start
recording
with
a
foot
switch.
This
is
ex-
tremely
useful
to
the
musician
who
must
make
a
“‘tight’’
punch-in
that
requires
both
hands
“on
the
instrument’
at
the
exact
moment
of
the
“punch’’.
The
foot
switch
will
NOT
start
the
transport,
you
must
do
that,
but
it
WILL
start
and
stop
recording.
Here’s
How.
Connect
the
TASCAM
PUNCH
IN/OUT
RE-
MOTE
PEDAL
to
the
rear
of
the
32.
Now,
even
with
both
of
your
hands
occupied,
PUNCH
OUT
can
still
be
performed
by
using
the
remote
pedal.
While
in
sync
reproduce,
pressing
the
pedal
with
your
foot
initiates
punch-in
of
the
channels
for
which
record
function
has
been
selected.
Punch-out
is
done
by
simply
pressing
the
pedal
again.
To conclude this section on entering record,
here is a review of all the record related controls
and what they do.
INPUT
SELECT
BUTTONS:
The
signal
coming
from MIC or LINE is controlled by the INPUT
SELECT buttons.
LINE — Selects line input source signals.
MIC — Selects microphone signals.
ATT
—
Discards
20dB
of
signal
from
the
microphones.
OUTPUT
SELECT
BUTTONS:
The
signal
presented
at
the
output
terminals
is
controlled
by
the
OUTPUT
SELECT
buttons.
INPUT
—
will
typically
be
used
for
source
calibrations
during
system
interface
and
set-up
procedures.
When
this
button
is
depressed,
the
input
signals
are
sent
directly
to
the
output
ter-
minals.
REPRO — will present the reproduce head
signal to the output jacks to monitor
the printed signal on the tape for
reference during recording.
SYNC
—
will
be
used
for
most
operations:
re-
cording,
overdubbing
(sync),
and
re-
produce.
The
monitoring
status
is
then
determined
by
the
FUNCTION
buttons.
FUNCTION
BUTTONS:
When
the
OUTPUT
SELECT
is
in
either
the
INPUT
or
REPRO
POSITION, the FUNCTION buttons have the
single purpose of determining the record status.
UP is safe. EQWN is ready-to-record.
When the OUTPUT SELECT is in the SYNC
position,
the
FUNCTION
buttons
serve
two
pur-
poses:
1) they determine the record status — UP is safe,
DOWN is ready-to-record.
2) they determine the monitoring status — UP is
sync/tape reproduce, DOWN is source.
