Chapter 3 Recording and Playback
Recording with the Clip Continuous
Rec Function
Normally, a clip is generated as an independent file every
time recording starts and stops. The Clip Continuous Rec
function allows you to continue recording to the same clip
until the function is turned off, regardless of how many
times recording starts and stops. This is convenient if you
want to avoid generating a large number of short clips, or
if you want to record without worrying about the limit on
the number of clips (maximum 300). A REC START
essence mark is recorded whenever recording starts, which
makes it easy to find the recording start points.
(How to select an item in the menu screen: Turn the
MENU knob to move the b mark to the desired item.)
