Re-recording only the portion that is mistaken (Punch In/Out)
Section 1
Repeating recording in a
specific section (Loop Recording)
When the BR-1600CD’s repeat function is used in
combination with punch in and punch out, the recorded
section will be played back automatically so you can hear
what you have recorded. In addition, if you find that you are
not happy with your recording, simply press [REC] without
stopping playback to re-record once again. The combination
of auto punch in/out with the repeat function in this way is
referred to as Loop Recording.
For more detailed information regarding the repeat
function, refer to “Playing back repeatedly (Repeat
Function)” (Basic Operation; p. 17).
Specifying the section to be repeated
Before you start recording, you will first of all have to set up
the start and end points of the section to be repeated.
At this time, it is important that you set up the section in
such a way that it contains the section to be re-recorded (i.e.,
the section between the punch in and punch out positions). If
the repeat section does not fully enclose the re-record section,
recording may not start as required at the specified position
or it may end abruptly in the middle of the re- record section.
fig.10-07
Specifying the section to be recorded
Use “Auto punch in and punch out” (p. 43) to register the
positions where the punch-in and punch-out are to be
performed.
Performing loop recording
As an example, the following section will describe usage of
the repeat function together with auto punch in and punch
out to re-record a portion of Track 1, which was recorded
earlier.
1.
Press the TRACK [1].
This track button will start to flash orange and green.
2.
Move the fader for Track 1 to the position shown
below.
fig.10-02
3.
Press AUTO PUNCH IN/OUT [ON/OFF].
This button will light up to indicate that auto punch in/
out has been turned on.
4.
Start playback of your song using the repeat function
and use the INPUT LEVEL knob to adjust the volume
of the input to a suitable level.
5.
With repeat playback in progress, press [REC] just
before the punch-in position.
The BR-1600CD automatically switches to record mode
at the punch-in position; recording stops automatically
at the punch-out position, and the BR-1600CD reverts to
playback mode.
After repeating, confirm the results just recorded.
If you were unable to get the recording to sound the way
you wanted, press [REC] and record the passage over
again.
If you press [REC] within the segment between the
punch-in and punch-out positions, the BR-1600CD
immediately switches to record mode at that point, then
automatically stops recording at the punch-out position.
6.
Press [STOP] when re-recording has been completed.
Press [REPEAT]. This button will turn off, indicating that
playback will not be repeated.
7.
Press AUTO PUNCH IN/OUT [ON/OFF].
This button will turn off, indicating that the auto punch
in/out has been deactivated.
