REC MUTE
The REC MUTE key can be used to mute the source signal. However, the source
signal can still be monitored using the LINE and INPUT/REPRO keys. The REC
MUTE key is latching (push once to turn on, push again to turn it off).
PAUSE
The PAUSE key will temporarily halt recording, and will send a "STOP" mes
sage from the REMOTE and PARALLEL I/O connectors. If the PAUSE key is
pressed before the track has reached the minimum period, REC MUTE will be
engaged, the PAUSE key will flash, and the YPDR will continue recording si
lence to the end of the minimum period. To resume recording, press PLAY.

The STOP key will halt recording, and will send a "STOP" message from the RE
MOTE and PARALLEL I/O connectors. If the STOP key is pressed before the
track has reached the minimum period, REC MUTE will be engaged, the STOP
key will flash, and the YPDR will continue recording silence to the end of the
minimum period. To resume recording, enter standby mode, and press PLAY
and REC together. The track number will automatically be incremented.
6.3.4 Recording the TOC
When all tracks have been recorded, the TOC may be written. This enables the
disc to be played on a commercial CD player.
Writing the TOC is a once-only process -once a TOC has been written, further
audio tracks cannot be recorded.
Press STDBY to put the YPDR in styandby mode. Press the TOC and REC keys
together to record the TOC. Recording the TOC takes about 4 minutes. A lead-
in and lead-out will be added, and 2 seconds will be added to the running time
of the final track.
When the TOC recording process is complete,
indicating that the TOC has been written and the disc can be played on a com
mercial CD player.
6.4 Multi-recorder recording
It is possible to record on up to seven recorder units simultaneously, controlling
all recorders from the same controller unit. This enables production of a number
of identical discs.
Select one recorder unit to be the "main unit". This should have the DRIVE ID
switch on the rear panel set to "0". All other units should have their IDs set to
count upward from this unit.
Connections should be made as described in "Multi-recorder connection" on
page 19. The last unit in the "daisy-chain" should be terminated using the ter
minator on the I/O OUT connector.
The DRIVE SELECT switch on the rear panel of the controller should be set to
the number of recorder units in the system, minus 1 (eg, if three recorder units
are in the chain, this switch should be set to "2").
If a number of units are connected together as described above, but recording
is to be carried out on only one unit, then all units must be switched on. Do not
put discs in the machines that you do not want to use for recording.
In PLAY or standby mode, the disc trays of all the recorder units must be closed.
