Using track-specific compressors and equalizers
Selecting tracks to be compressed
A maximum of 8 different compressors can be used, and
these can be selected for use on Tracks 1 through 8 or Tracks
9/10 through 15/16. At the time of purchase, Tracks 1
through 8 will be selected for compression.
Let's now change the settings to have compression applied to
Tracks 9/10 through 15/16.
1. Press [COMP].
The Compressor screen will appear.

2. Press [F3] (TRACK 9-16).
Tracks 9/10 through 15/16 will now be selected for compression.
Each time you press [F3], the tracks for compression will toggle
between Tracks 1 through 8 and Tracks 9/10 through 15/16.
3. If you wish to store the modified settings, save the
current song (p. 72).
Switching compressors between
stereo and mono (Stereo Link)
If you intend to apply a compressor to a stereo-recorded
track, you will need to align the left and right compressor
settings in order to prevent differences in volume occurring
on the left and right (Stereo Link). Use the following
procedure to turn Stereo Link on and off.
1. Press [COMP].
The Compressor screen will appear.

2. Use the track buttons or [CURSOR] to select one or
both tracks from a stereo pair.
3. Press [F4] (LINK ON).
Stereo Link will be toggled between on and off.
4. If you wish to store the modified settings, save the
current song (p. 72).
Adjusting a three-band equalizer

the sound of each track (Equalizer)” (Basic Operation; p. 48).
The following section will deal with the finer points of
equalizer setting methods.

The Equalizer screen will appear.

and select a new setting using the TIME/VALUE dial.
You will be able to hear how your new settings change
the sound.
■ When “HIGH” is selected
HIGH TYPE SHLV, PEAK
Sets the equalizer type for the high range.
SHLV
This selects the shelving type equalization.
PEAK

Tracks 9/10 through 15/16 are fixed as stereo tracks,
and therefore, Stereo Link will always be on for the
corresponding compressors. It will not be possible to
turn Stereo Link off for these tracks.
