Playback using the Vari-pitch function
This section explains how to change the playback speed of the recorder using the Vari Pitch function.
You can set the playback speed in the range of +6.0% to -6.0% in 0.1% increments. The VARI PITCH key turns
Vari Pitch mode on and off. When the function is turned on, the VARI PITCH LED lights up.
When the function is turned off, the LED turns off.
• Initialize the D-108.
• Check the sampling frequency. Select the desired sampling frequency, if necessary.
Do not change the sampling frequency until you finish the session.
1.Press the PLAY button to play the D-108.
2.Press the VARI PITCH key.
The VARI PITCH key LED lights up on the display,
indicating that the Vari Pitch function is turned on.
3.Press the RECALL key, then press the VARI PITCH
key.
The current pitch data flashes on the display, indicating
that you can change the pitch data now. (The [%] mark
flashes.)
4.Set the desired pitch data using the JOG dial.
Rotating the JOG dial enables you to hear changes in
playback speed. Rotating the dial clockwise increases
the speed, and rotating it counter-clockwise decreases
the speed.
To continue the playback with the Vari Pitch function on,
press the EXIT/NO key.
The D-108 exits Vari Pitch data edit mode, indicates the
previous Time Base display, and continues playing with
the Vari Pitch you just set.
5.To turn off Vari Pitch mode, press the VARI PITCH
key.
The VARI PITCH LED turns off, the Vari Pitch function
is cancelled, and the D-108 resumes playback at normal
speed.
6. If you wish to play back data at the current Vari
Pitch again, press the VARI PITCH key to turn the
LED on.
You can turn the Vari Pitch function on and off and
edit the pitch data while the D-108 is playing or stopped,
but not during recording.
However, if the Vari Pitch function has already been
turned on and the pitch data was specified before you
started recording, the D-108 will record using the
current Vari Pitch.
<Note>
• Even if the pitch data is 0.0% (no speed
change), pressing the VARI PITCH key will still
turn on the VARI PITCH function. The speed
is not changed, but the Vari Pitch is turned
on.
• The Vari Pitch function is automatically turned
off under the following conditions:
1. You have turned off and on the power to the D-108. (The
pitch data will be reset to 0.0%.)
2. You have set “Slave mode setting” in SETUP mode to ON.
(The pitch data previously set will be maintained.)
3. You have specified a track (or adat) for “Digital input track
setting” in SETUP mode, and [DIGITAL] lights up on the
display. (The pitch data previously set is retained.) Or, [EXT
SYNC] lights up on the display as the D-108 synchronizes
with the Digital In clock or WORD IN.
