File Type buttons
Select the file type to be written to the mirrored device:
Wav Mono button – (BWF-M) This creates a separate WAV file for each track recorded. When using this
option with UDF formatted DVD-RAM discs, the files and discs may not be readable on
Mac OS computers.
Wav Poly button – (BWF-P) This creates a single file containing all of the tracks recorded for a given Take.
Wav Mono F button – This format is a custom format to ensure recorded audio will playback correctly on
Fostex DV40 equipment.
Wav Poly F button – This creates a single file containing all of the tracks recorded for a given Take with the
custom changes necessary to playback correctly on a Fostex DV40.
NOTE: The Wav Poly F mode always stamps the WAV file at 48000 Hz even if the file was recorded at
48048 Hz. Selecting this mode when recording at 48000 Hz has no effect.
ZAX File button – This format is a custom non-lossy format. Creates .ZAX files, which require the use
of Zaxcom’s ZAX File Utility to convert to standard broadcast wave or MP3 files.
Pull Up / Down buttons
Select one of these only if the timecode on the mirrored files needs to be pulled up or down:
Timecode stamp pull up button – Pulls up timecode on mirrored audio. This option is used in conjunction
with the file type.
Timecode stamp pull down button – Pulls down timecode on mirrored audio. This option is used in
conjunction with the file type.
Default setting: neither selected
