7. Press the [EXECUTE/YES] key while holding down
the [RECORD] button.
The size of unformatted area on the hard disk appears
on the display, and counts down as the formatting
progresses.
It will take a while to complete formatting, especially
if you are formatting a large-capacity disk.
Upon completion of formatting, "COMPLETED!" will
be lit and the effective hard disk capacity as a
result of formatting will be indicated.
The display below is an example at formatting in
"48kHz/24 bit," and the number of effective tracks
after formatting will be indicated as 24.
6. Select “On” or “Off” via the Jog dial, and press the
[EXECUTE/YES] key.
The screen for selecting the format appears (the
default shows “Standard Format?”).
You can select the format type between “Standard
Format” and “Quick Format” using the Jog dial.
To newly format the hard disk, select the initial
setting of "Standard format?" and proceed to the next
step.

During formatting, the re-
corder checks the hard disk
performance including the
access time of each block.
The time required for the
format is longer but the reli-
ability is enhanced.
In general, it is best to se-
lect this default format type.
Formatting this way, the re-
corder assumes that all sec-
tors in the hard disk are
good and simply formats the
disk.
The time required to format
is very short, however, bad
sectors on the disk will not
be found.
Select this format type only
when using a new hard disk
that is checked by FOSTEX.
When set to On, the undo
function is applied to all takes
(recording, editing, etc.) ex-
ecuted after the disk has
been formatted. However,
consumption of the hard disk
increases, so if the disk ca-
pacity is not large enough,
we recommend setting this
function to Off.
When set to Off, the undo
function is only applied to
the current take (recording,
editing, etc.).
If the disk capacity is not
large enough, we recom-
mend setting this function
to Off.
For details on multiple undo function, refer to the
Reference Manual.

8. Press the [EXIT/NO] key or [STOP] button after
confirming that "COMPLETED!" is lit.
It will exit from the SETUP mode format menu and
change to indication of the head of disk (ABS 0) by
ABS time.
It is indicated as formatted in 48kHz/
24 bit.
Display below is the example at completion of for-
matting in "96kHz/24 bit”.
Number of effective tracks after formatting is 8 (It
will also be 8 tracks when formatted in "88.2kHz/
24 bit.").
This indicates that the disk is located
at the head position (ABS 0).
The program number is indi-
cated. Immediately after for-
matting, one program is au-
tomatically made in the disk.
The operating clock after
formatting is set to "Int."

Flashing
In the initial setting, "On" will flash and if the Jog
dial is rotated in this state, either "On" or "Off" can
be selected. Normally, format is executed with mul-
tiple undo set to "On" but if the current drive ca-
pacity is small and you wish to limit consumption
of the hard disk, it must be set to "Off."
