While not recording, it is possible to switch between
monitoring the input signal (the
MONITOR
indicator is
on) and the playback of the disc.
Use the
MONITOR
key on the main unit or the
RC-RA1000 to switch this function on (as shown by the
indicator lighting).
Note that this function is automatically turned on (i.e.,
monitoring the input) when the DV-RA1000HD is
recording or in record ready mode.
Also note that the VFP
MONO
function (see “
MONO
” on
page 24) can be used to turn monaural monitoring on
and off (but this does not work in DSD mode).
