7 - Recorder Functions
In Bounce mode, the recording source track signals pass through
the mixer tracks via the bounce bus, and they are sent to the
bounce tracks.
If you make a mistake, you can use the undo function of this unit
to undo the incorrect operation. (See “Undoing an operation” on
page 39.)
Using the bounce function
1. When in
Multi Track
mode and the recorder is stopped,
press the BOUNCE button.
The Recorder switches to
Bounce
mode.
NOTE
In Bounce mode,
Bounce
appears in the upper left of the Home
screen.
2. Press the REC button(s) of the track(s) on which you want
to record the bounce. The REC button for the bounce target
track starts flashing.
When bouncing in stereo, press the REC buttons for two
mono tracks or one stereo track. The button or buttons start
flashing.
When bouncing in mono, press the REC button for one
mono track (1 to 8). The button starts flashing.
You should also set the fader of the bounce target track to 0
dB.
NOTE
Though the track fader and STEREO fader settings of the bounce
destination affect the monitoring volume, they do not affect the
recording level. If you want the monitoring level to be the same as
the recording level, set the bounce target track and STEREO faders
to 0 dB.
3. Press the SELECT button to specify the bounce source.
You can select any tracks except the bounce target tracks
and any inputs as bounce sources. To set an input as a
bounce source, assign it to a stereo bus and press its
SOURCE button.
Use the track faders and the PAN knobs on the Mixer screen
to adjust the signals of tracks to be bounced.
When bouncing in stereo, the lower numbered track
becomes the left channel.
When bouncing in mono, set the PAN knobs on the Mixer
screen of tracks that will be bounced completely to the left.
To adjust the bounce master level when in Bounce mode,
press the F4 (
BOUNCE MASTER
) button to show a fader.
Use the JOG/DATA dial to adjust it.
CAUTION
If a bounce source is selected before selecting a
destination, the audio signals of the bounce sources
will not be output from the STEREO OUT or MONITOR
OUT jacks until you select the bounce destination.
4. Locate to the point where you want to start the bounce and
press the RECORD (0) button to start bouncing.
Press the STOP (8) button at the position where you want
to end the bounce.
Checking the bounce result
Mute the bounce source tracks and play back the song. (See
“Muting tracks” on page 37.)
If you are not satisfied with the result because you think the
balance between the instruments or the pan settings are not
good, for example, undo the operation. (See “Undoing an
operation” on page 39.)
If you are satisfied with the result, press the BOUNCE button to
return to
Multi Track
mode.
Once the track bounce completes, you can make new recordings
over (overwrite) the other tracks.
TIP
If it is possible that you might need the original tracks at some time
later, copy or back up song data to a computer before bouncing
tracks. (See “Copying songs” on page 30 and “Connecting to a
computer” on page 64.)
NOTE
To hear the audio recorded to the bounce target track(s), set the
monitor destination to
BOUNCE
so that you can monitor the
bounce bus signal.
Direct location function
You can specify a time or measure/beat to be located without
using marks. On the Home screen, use the JOG/DATA dial to
specify the location point.
The Home screen counter has two display modes:
ABS
(absolute
time) and
BAR
(bar/beat).
The
BAR
display is based on the metronome setting.
In
BAR
mode, you can locate a position in beat units. The current
position of the recorder is shown as a time (measure-beat) at the
top of the Home screen. The tempo is also displayed.
The
ABS
display is based on the absolute time. In
ABS
mode,
you can locate a position in frame units. The current position of
the recorder is shown as a time (hours: minutes: seconds: frames)
at the top of the Home screen (30 frames per second).
You can specify a time in this time display area and move the
transport to that point.
Locating a specified time directly
In
ABS
mode, you can locate a specified time directly using the
following procedure. Direct location this way is not possible
when recording.
1. Press the HOME button to open the Home screen.
2.
ABS
appears to the left of the counter on the Home screen.
If
ABS
does not appear, press the METRONOME button to
open the
METRONOME
screen.
Use the CURSOR (5/b) buttons to select the
BAR DISP
item, and then use the JOG/DATA dial to set it to
OFF
. This
will cause
ABS
to appear on the Home screen.
