A-Time problem!
« on: November 14, 2007, 05:04:33 PM »
I was playing through some dats the other day and noticed that most of them didn't have any A-Time just zeros across the board. They all played fine, I looked at my settings everything seems ok so why do some of these DATs have A-Time and some don't. Could this be caused by the machine "waking up" out of sleep mode multiple times?


Thanks,
MD

Some decks never wrote it.  My Panasonic SV255 didn't.

Not really a big deal...

D8's had a-time issues

I had forgotten all about that. I bet there are threads on the issue on this board though

dap1's required you to format the dat before recording or else there would be no time whatsoever..

dat2wav (pc dds tape reading applet) won't successfully read tapes in a DDS trive if they don't have a-time.

you can always clone a master without a-time onto another dat to write an a-time index if it matters to you.
