3. Access the [RECORD] “Bounce” tab page, and set “BounceMode” to

“16Tr→2Tr”.

“16Tr→2Tr” means that sixteen tracks will be bounced to two tracks.

4. Press the field at the right of “RecordVirtualTrack,” and turn the

[VALUE] dial to select “h”.
The bounced data will be placed in the virtual track you selected
here. In other words, you will be bounce-recording on virtual track
“1h” of track 1 and virtual track “2h” of track 2.

If tracks “1h” and “2h” already contain data, choose different virtual
tracks.

Bounce-record

1. Go to the beginning of the song.

2. Press the [REC] key and then the [PLAY] key to begin resampling.

3. When you are finished recording, press the [STOP] key.

Play back

1. Use the [TRACK STATUS] keys to set tracks 1 and 2 to PLAY. For all

tracks other than tracks 1 and 2, either lower the faders or set their
[TRACK STATUS] to MUTE.

2. In the [TRACK] “Vtr1–8” tab page, select virtual tracks “1h” and

“2h” for tracks 1 and 2.
If you selected virtual tracks other than “h” in “Preparations for
bounce-recording,” select those virtual tracks instead.

3. Play back the song from the beginning.

The final effect will be applied to the song in duplicate when you
play back here. This is because the final effect was applied to the
bounce-recorded data, and is also being applied to the playback
you are hearing. Set the final effect to NO EFFECT so that you can
hear the actual state of the song (i.e., as it was actually bounce-
recorded).

3. Write your song to a CD

Here’s how to create an original CD by writing your song to CD-R.

Since CD-RW discs may sometimes not be playable in an audio
CD player, we recommend that you use CD-R discs when creat-
ing audio CDs.

Creating an audio CD will require the same amount of free space on the
hard disk as occupied by your song (the total of the two tracks).
For example in order to write a five-minute stereo song to an audio CD,
there must be at least five minutes of stereo (ten minutes of monaural)
worth of recordable free space on the hard disk.

If there is no region of silence at the beginning of your song (the
“zero time” location), the beginning of your song may “drop out”
when you write it to a CD and play back. You can prevent this by
inserting a region of about 0.5 seconds of silence at the beginning
of the song. For details on how to do this, refer to “Inserting blank
data: Insert Track” (→p.63).

If tracks “1h” and “2h” already
contain data, and you select “h”
here, the data in “1h” and “2h”
will play back during bounce-
recording. If you want to keep
the data of tracks “1h” and “2h”,
choose different virtual tracks.

For details on how to check the
free space on the hard disk, refer
to “1. Select TimeDisp Type”
(→p.91) in “1. COUNTER.”
