Rec mute function
The rec mute function allows instant cut-off of the input
signal, and records four seconds of silence on the disc.

key.

NOTE
This function is only available from the remote control
unit. It is not possible to use this function with the main
unit only.
Copy-protection
The CC-222MKIV allows copy-protection to be applied to
the discs produced. Naturally, the copy-protection applies
only to digital-to-digital copies.
There are three settings:
•
FREE (may be freely copied), where no copy-pro-
tection is applied to the recorded disc.
•
1GEN (single-generation copying), where one digital
copy (“child”) can be made from the recorded disc, but
no digital copies (“grandchildren”) can be made from
the child.
•
PROH (copy prohibited) which prevents any digital
copies being made from the recorded disc

NOTE
Copy-protection applies on a “per-track”, not a per-disc
basis. This means that you can apply different copy-
protection levels to different tracks (but you can’t apply
different copy-protection levels to different parts of
the same track). If copy-protection is important to your
work, you may want to check this setting every time you
make a recording, to ensure that you have the protec-
tion level that you want.
Fade-in and fade-out
To provide smooth beginnings and endings to recorded
tracks, the unit provides fade facilities.
Fade-ins are from –∞ (silence) to the set input level (see
“Signal volume” on page 21) and fade-outs go from the
current input volume to silence.
The fade-in and fade-out times can be set indepen-dently
in increments of one second, from 1 second to 24 seconds.
