Be sure the internal clock is setup to the correct year, month, day and present time.
Model D2424LV Quick Operation Guide Connecting a analog mixer The D2424LV is equipped with 24 [ANALOG INPUT] and 24 [ANALOG OUTPUT] connectors, allowing up to 24-channel input/output connection, which may be powerful for live recording, etc. • At making connections with the mixer, switch off power to this unit and the mixer. • Analog input/output ports of D2424LV are set to "unbalanced input/output" in the initial state.
Model D2424LV Quick Operation Guide Connecting a digital mixer When making connections with a digital recording mixer, refer to the connecting example below. • When connecting the recorder to a digital mixing console, make sure that the power of both units are off. • The [DATA INPUT] and [DATA OUTPUT] connectors do not support adat digital signals of 96-kHz Fs. In other words, the unit cannot receive of feed an adat digital signal of 96-kHz Fs.
Model D2424LV Quick Operation Guide • When connecting the recorder to a digital mixing console as shown in the example above, unlike connecting to an analog console, both digital devices must be synchronized with each other. To achieve this, use "word clock," the signal for synchronization. Word clock is used to synchronize all digital words in a system. Normally one digital devices in the system acts as a master of word clock, and the other devices act as slaves.
Model D2424LV Quick Operation Guide Basic recording After you finish preparing a recording media and connecting a mixer, you can start basic recording using this recorder. Basic analog recording The following explanation assumes that this recorder has been connected to an external mixing console (as explained in the “Connecting a Mixer” section). Because the D2424LV can accept 24 channel analog signals, you can record up to 24 audio sources simultaneously.
Model D2424LV Quick Operation Guide Undo and redo recording (single undo/redo) Everybody makes mistakes. If you make a mistake in recording, you can restore and re-do the data that existed before the mistake occurred.

You may create up to 99 Programs, depending on the available disk space. Multiple Programs do not interfere with each other. You can record, play, and edit each Program independently, which facilitates song management. This section explains how to set up a new Program on the disk.
Model D2424LV Quick Operation Guide Changing the program FS In the following, we will change a program’s sampling frequency in the current drive. IN general, tha sampling frequency of the program made in the current drive will be the value set during the most recent formatting of the current drive. But even after a program has been made, the sampling frequency can be changed. However, the changes will be limited as follows depending on the quantizing figure when formatting.
Model D2424LV Quick Operation Guide Playback using the Vari-pitch function This section explains how to change the playback speed of the recorder using the Vari Pitch function. You can set the playback speed in the range of +6.0% to -6.0% in 0.1% increments. The [VARI PITCH] key turns Vari Pitch mode on and off. When the function is turned on, the VARI PITCH LED lights up.
