If I hadn't misplaced the owner's manual I wouldn't need to ask, but....
Upon powering up my Teac DA P20 DAT recorder only offers the option of Auto
ID marking of tracks (can't undo this option). It has only recently begun
doing this (I just want straight ABS time logged only). Any special tricks
on powering-up to defeat the Auto ID facility?
Also, how do I manually delete the ID's thus added on recent tapes ?
Thanks for any advice on this,
Ray

I don't think that you can turn off this feature, or at least I never
discovered a way a to do it. You can remove the IDs on any DAT that
allows you to manually renumber the IDs (usually studio-type decks).
Most can do it.
