■ Using auto punch-in/out
This is a function that lets you specify beforehand
the region to be re-recorded, for automatic punch-
in/out.
1. From the AUDIO mode top screen,
repeatedly press the status key of the
track on which you want to perform
punch-in/out, until the “REC”
indication is visible.
If necessary, adjust the input sensitivity and
recording level for the instrument again.
2. While playing the instrument to be
recorded, operate the fader of the
selected track to adjust the monitor level.
3. Move to the point where you want to
perform punch-in, and press the
[AUTO PUNCH IN/OUT] key.
The indication “AUTO PUNCH IN/OUT” flashes
in the middle of the display, and the current point is
set as the punch-in point.
4. Move to the point where you want to
perform punch-out, and press the
[AUTO PUNCH-IN/OUT] key once more.
The indication “AUTO PUNCH IN/OUT” stops
flashing and stays constantly on. The current point
is set as the punch-out point.
H INT
The auto punch-in/out setting can be made in
the playback or stop condition.
5. Use the Locate function to move to a
point a few measures before the
punch-in point.
6. To rehearse the auto punch-in/out
procedure, press only the [
R/P] key.
To actually perform auto punch-in/
out, hold down the [REC] key and
press the [
R/P] key.
● If [R/P] key only was pressed (rehearsal)
When the punch-in point is reached, the track
selected for punch-in/out will be muted. At the
punch-out point, muting is canceled. (The input
signal can be monitored during this time.)
● If [REC] key + [R/P] key was pressed
(actual function)
When the punch-in point is reached, recording will
begin automatically (punch-in). At the punch-out
point, recording will end automatically, and
playback will resume (punch-out).
H INT
For the section that is muted/recorded, the
"REC" indication stops flashing and stays
constantly on.
7. When punch-in/out is completed,
press the [
R/P] key so that the key
goes out.
The indication “WAIT” is briefly shown on the
display.
8. To check the newly recorded
content, press the [AUTO PUNCH IN/
OUT] key to cancel the auto punch-
in/out function. Then move to the
point of step 4 and press the [
R/P]
key.
When you cancel the auto punch-in/out function so
that the indication goes out, the settings for the
punch-in and punch-out point are lost. To redo the
recording, repeat steps 3 - 7.
