and the space

character.

To change between uppercase and lowercase alpha-
betical characters, use the

CAPS

key. The word

CAPS

appears at the bottom left of the display when

the “caps lock” is on.

The

INS/+

and

DEL/-

keys are used to insert a space

immediately following the cursor position, and to
delete the character at the cursor position,
respectively.

Since the title can be longer than the display can
show at one time, the first characters of the title are
shown, and the rest is then scrolled from right to left.

4.8.2 Writing the title to tape

Locate the tape to a point following the end of the
START ID which will be associated with the title that
has just been entered.

Press

EDIT

until the display shows:

Press

ENTER

, and the tape will start moving back

until before the start of the previous START ID, and
then start recording the characters. The words

CHAR WRT

will flash in the display while

recording is taking place.

4.8.3 Checking a title

When replaying a tape on which titles have been
recorded, the boxed word

CHAR

appears under the

seconds field at the bottom of the display as soon as
the first title is read from tape.

Use the

CHAR

key to display the last title which has

been read from tape. While the title is displayed, all
other tape counter numerals are replaced by the char-
acters in the title. The title will scroll across the dis-
play if it is too long to fit in the display.

4.8.4 Deleting a title

Locate the tape to a little past the point where the
title is recorded on tape.

Use the

ID SELECT

key to select the

CHAR

ERASE

mode (4.4.1, "Selecting an ID mode").

Press

ENTER

. The display will show

ER-CH

, and

the tape will rewind to a little before the point where
the title has been recorded.

The title will then the erased. The words

CHAR

ERASE

will flash in the display while the title is

actually being erased.

4.8.5 Copying and pasting a title

The title which was last been read from tape can be
copied and used as the basis for new titles. This can
be useful if you are producing a lot of programs with
similar titles (different mixes or takes of the same
piece, for instance).

Once the title which will be copied has been read
from tape (the

CHAR

indicator in the display must

be lit), press

EDIT

until the display shows:

Press the

MEMO 2

key to recall and paste the last

title into the editing area. The title may then be edited
and written to tape in the usual way.
