Formatting a new disk
Follow the procedure below to format a new disk.
1. Insert a disk into the SCSI drive.
If you insert an unformatted disk or a disk in an inappro-
priate formats, the FD-4 recognizes that the disk is
“unformatted,” displays the “Unformat!” message, then
automatically enters SETUP mode, and displays the “For-
mat ?” menu.
At this time, the ID number of the connected SCSI drive will
appear and [SURE ?] will blink on the display. (In the fol-
lowing example, the FD-4 recognizes that the ID number of
the connected SCSI drive is set to [ID 2].)
2. Press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The FD-4 displays [Pls Wait !], then immediately displays
the recording mode menu, with [Normal] and [SURE ?] flash-
ing as shown below.
There are three recording modes (see the following table).
In most cases, select [Normal] (Normal mode) ,which is cur-
rently displayed. If you prefer higher quality recording
(CD-level quality with a sampling rate of 44.1kHz), select
“Mastering mode 1” or “Mastering mode 2.” Note that avail-
able recording time is shorter in Mastering mode 1 and 2.
<Notes>
* You can record only to Real tracks on a disk formatted in
Mastering mode 2.
However, you can perform operations other than recording, such
as “Track Exchange,” using Additional tracks.
For more information, refer to the “Real track and Additional
track” section of the “Before Starting” chapter.
* After you record data on a disk formatted in Normal mode, if you
mix down the data digitally to DAT, copy the data, or save or
load the song data, select “32kHz/SP mode” as a recording mode
for the DAT recorder.
* The FD-4 employs a recording format called “FDMS-3” (Fostex
Disk Management System-3), which is also used on the Fostex
digital master recorder D-160.
Therefore, the D-160 can play back data that was recorded in
Mastering mode 1 or 2 on the FD-4. However, the D-160 can
not play back data recorded in Normal mode.
