Bought a DR701-D in the yard sale recently. The first few outings have be great, but then I started have a weird intermittent issue where I hit record, the record light comes on, but the counter doesn't count. It is recording, but I don't like it. The next time it may work fine. Or not.
Any ideas?

Can you update the firmware??

My memory is there are several different readout settings, maybe you toggled to a different one unknowingly? I think I recall that happening to me.

I had that happen to me one time, and it caused me to re-boot and upon doing so the problem was gone, and I later found out everything was recording just fine. No damage done and has not happened again, but the same symptoms you mentioned. I have used the deck for maybe 2 years prior without any issue. That said I tend to use this deck primarily low pro ( >:D ) at one particular venue, so it could have happened more than once and I just did not notice.

Thanks everyone. Didn't even think about checking the firmware
