Starting recording
After making the necessary settings for recording appropriately, you can start
recording.
The DV824 automatically creates a new audio file (BWF) on the disk each time
you make recording.
In the following description, it is assumed that a formatted blank DVD-RAM
disk is set to the disk tray and the unit is receiving correct analog or digital
audio signals.
1) Press the [SAFE/RDY] key to make the unit record ready.
The [SAFE/READY] indicator starts flashing, while the track indicators of the
recording tracks below the level meters start flashing.
The Home screen changes as below.
The Home screen now shows the name of the audio file (New file) created when
recording starts, as well as disk remaining recordable time.
The file name format is set to the "<SCENE NAME> + <TAKE NUMBER>" format by
default. Therefore, the name of the first audio file is "SCENE_001.wav", as shown
above.
<Note>:
The file name automatically set when recording is made is called "de-
fault file name". You can change the default file name type to "Creation time/
date.", instead of "<SCENE NAME> + <TAKE NUMBER>" (
see page 115 for de-
tails
). You can also change the file name later (
see page 142 for details
).
The remaining recordable time varies depending on the FS/bit selection and the
number of recording tracks.
2) Press the [RECORD] key to start recording.

When the time mode is set to "LTC", the time display shows LTC starting from
"01H00M00S00F" in realtime. The same time code is recorded to the audio file.
That is, "01h00m00s00f" is stamped at the beginning (ABS 0) and the generator
records LTC jammed to this start time code.
With the default "TC GEN" mode ("REC R"), each time you make audio recording,
the continuous LTC to the previous file is recorded. That is, after the first file, the
first frame of the next file must have the time code of the last frame of the previ-
ous file plus one.
When the "TC GEN" mode is set to "EXT", each file starts from the LTC set by the
"Default LTC start" item in the "TC SETUP" menu (the default is "01H00M00S00F").
While the optional TC/SYNC card is installed, the LTC time is recorded if the unit
is receiving external LTC.
You can edit the LTC start time via the "Edit LTC start" menu item in the "TC
SETUP" menu of the MENU mode (see page 132 for details).
