Simultaneous Mirror feature
When was it introduced:
Deva
v4.00
Go to the Mirror Drive page {p.120} and change the Mirror Mode button to On-CONTIN. to enable the
continuous mirror mode. Deva will mirror the currently selected mirror folder while in record (not during
playback). When mirroring more than 8 tracks at 48 kHz, Deva may slowly fall behind the mirror process and may
take a few minutes to catch up after the recording stops.
“Mirror All Folders” feature
When was it introduced:
Deva
v3.69
Erase your mirror drive (FireWire hard drive) and then select a starting folder in the Mirror Folders page
{p.125}. Press the Mirroring Mode button to select All Folders. Then go back to the Mirror Drive page
{p.120} and change the Mirror Mode button to On-NORMAL to start mirroring. The Deva will mirror starting
at the currently selected mirror folder and will mirror all folders until the end of the disk. Deva will over-write
any matching segments that are already on the mirror disk.
Known Firmware Issues
NOTE: Turn ‘OFF’ all effects before switching to a higher sampling-rate. If you want to use 192 kHz mode, then
you should perform a factory restore defaults to insure all effects are turned ‘OFF’.
When changing from 192 kHz to 48 kHz sample-rate, select 96 kHz first as an intermediate step to prevent a
possible freeze. Holding the 0 key while booting will force the Deva back into 48 kHz mode.
NOTE: Mirror Disk Playback must NOT be enabled while mirror mode is on. Doing so will cause the unit to
appear to be in playback when it is not. The Play key may not update properly until the current page is
exited.
NOTE: Playback from a DVD-RAM disk or FireWire drive often will not be fast enough to sustain the Deva’s
playback buffer. This will often result in only partial playback of a file. Press the STOP key periodically to
allow the playback buffer to refill.
WARNING: If you install software versions lower than z3.55 onto a Deva, the internal DVD drive and CF card
slot will not function. This may make it difficult to install a newer version.
NOTE: As of V4.00, you must select the folder to mirror. Deva will no longer assume that you want to mirror
the current RECORD folder. You may also change the RECORD folder without affecting the currently
mirroring folder.
