S o r t
When the Waveform Display window is displayed and the displayed channel is
changed by the Channel Select Palette, the order of graphs in the windows might get
out of order. In such a case, the Sort command orders the graphs in the order of the
channels. Select
Ascending
to sort so that the lowest channel numbers are at the
top. Select
Descending
to sort so that the highest channel numbers are at the top.
1. Voice Memo
From
Voice Memo,
select
MIX
,
BEFORE
, or
AFTER
, to record voice memo.
Details of each mode are explained on the next page.
2. IRIG
When
IRIG
displays
ON
, at the start of recording the GX-1 internal clock is cor-
rected by an IRIG-B time code input through the DIGITAL CONTROL connec-
tor. Be sure to supply the IRIG-B time code signal when selecting
ON
. If not
supplied, the unit will not enter Rec Standby status.
3. Count
In
Count
, select the units for k (kilo) of the sampling frequency: either 1,000 or
1,024.

▼ When you select 1,024 for Count, the sampling
frequencies that do not make up a full k are
converted as follows: 500 to 512, 200 to 204.8,
100 to 102.4, and so on. However, note that the
display in the
PARAMS
menu will not change.
Also note that the value [sampling-frequency
x

x
1.024] cannot exceed
3,200 kHz.
▼ The Count must be 1k = 1000 at 200 kHz sam-
