27. [JAM] switch
Used to execute the jamming function (see page 72).
When this switch is set to “ON” and the PD-6 is receiving external time code,
the internal time code generator takes over (jams) time code. Note that the
jamming function is only available when the [TC GEN] mode switch is set to
“FREE RUN”. Depending on the “JAM mode” menu setting in the TC Setup
mode, the PD-6 jams the time code user bits regardless of the [TC GEN] mode
switch setting.
28. [PRE REC] switch
When this switch is set to “ON”, recording starts from audio data stored in the
buffer. The buffered time can be set using the “Pre rec time” menu in the
Setup mode (see “Setup mode” on page 101).

29. [DISC FEED] switches
Each switch selects a recording source of corresponding track.
Channel pre-fader signal is selected.
Stereo buss (L or R) signal is selected. The “L” signal can be assigned to the odd tracks,
while the “R” signal can be assigned to the even tracks.
Channel post-fader signal is selected.
30. [PEAK] indicators
Each indicator lights up according to the input level of the input amplifier.
Lights in green: The input level is between -1 dB and -5 dB of the clipping level.
Lights in red: The input level is between 0 dB and -1 dB of the clipping level.
By setting “Input Clip” in the “Error tone” menu of the Setup mode to “On”,
the error tone is output from the monitor speaker (or headphones) whenever
the corresponding input channel receives a loud signal which makes the
indicator lit in red (see “Setup mode” on page 96).
31. [PFL] keys
By pressing a [PFL] key, you can hear the pre-fader signal of the corresponding
channel from the internal monitor speaker or headphones.
When any of the [PFL] keys is pressed, the pre-fader signal takes priority to the
signal selected by the monitor selection switchs (SOLO monitor select switch,
Monitor mode select switch and ST/MONO monitor select switch).
