Recording to CF/CD

Layering Your Performance with a Song from a CF Card
(Overdubbing)

While playing back a previously recorded performance from
a CF card, you can layer—or “overdub”—another vocal or
instrumental performance and record the combined result to
a new track.

Since you can continue overdubbing parts, you can create a
song by adding elements one at a time. For example, you can
start with drums, then add bass, and then a vocal, and so on.

MEMO

• The new track created by overdubbing is placed at the

end of the CF card.

HINT

• You can switch the time display to show the remaining

recording time on the CF card.

Page 75, “Displaying

the Remaining Time”

• You can select the recording mode that’s appropriate for

the content you’re recording.

Page 36, “Choosing the

CF Card Recording Mode”

• You can increase the free space available on a CF card by

deleting unwanted tracks.

• You can have the CD-2 sound a count-in before
