Putting multiple tracks together (Bounce)
Although the BR-864 allows the simultaneous playback of
eight tracks, when you run out of tracks, the BR-864 also lets
you copy the recordings of multiple tracks together onto one
track (V-Track). This is called “bounce” (also known as
bounce recording or ping-pong recording). By combining
multiple tracks in this way, you can free up other tracks in
order to record additional performances. The explanation below uses an example of mixing the
monaural recording on tracks 1 and 2 and the stereo
recording on tracks 3 and 4, and bouncing them to V-Track 2
of tracks 3 and 4.
1. Set the pan for tracks 1 and 2 to the locations you
desire, set the pan for track 3 all the way to the left
(L50), and the pan for track 4 all the way to the right
(R50).
“Setting the positioning (pan) of the sound” (p. 40)
2. Play back the song and adjust the volumes for the eight
tracks using the REC TRACK faders.
The overall volume is adjusted by the MASTER fader. At
this time, raise the volume as high as possible without
allowing the sound to distort.
Lower the faders for the tracks that you do not want to
mix.
* When using bounce recording, you can record the sounds with
insert effects (p. 56), loop effects (p. 62), or Track EQ (p. 64)
applied. When using the insert effects, refer to “Changing how
the insert effects are used according to the mode” (p. 59).
3. Press [STOP].
4. Press [REC MODE] repeatedly until “BOUNCE” is
indicated for REC MODE at the left of the screen.
The track selection screen appears for stereo recording.
5. Use CURSOR [ ] [ ] and the TIME/VALUE dial to
select the recording-destination track/V-Track.
Here, set this to “34V2” (V-Track 2 of Tracks 3 and 4).

(When bouncing while recording in mono)
If you turn the TIME/VALUE dial at this time, the
screen for specifying the track for mono recording is
displayed.
In bounce mode, you can play back eight tracks
simultaneously and record them all to a single, separate
V-Track.
When input sources are selected with INPUT SELECT,
you can have those sounds recorded together.
Furthermore, you can include the sounds from the
rhythm guide in the recording.
