Here’s how to record mix operation data to the newly cre-
ated Automix recording.
1
Move the song location to just before the
point at which you want to begin recording
the Automix data.
2
Call the AUTOMIX screen Automix page by
either pressing the [AUTOMIX] key as many
times as necessary, or by pressing the [F1]
key after pressing the [AUTOMIX] key.
3
Move the cursor to the
ENABLE/DISABLE button in
the MODE field and press the
[ENTER] key.
The button will switch to
“ENABLE”, and Automix operation
will be enabled.
4
Move the cursor to the OVERWRITE field
and engage the buttons corresponding to
the parameters you want to record.
Use the OVERWRITE field buttons to select the types
of data you want to record: CH ON. FADER, AUX/
EFFECT SEND ON, AUX EFFECT SEND, EQ, PAN.
Parameters corresponding to buttons that are not
engaged will not be recorded even if they are operated
during Automix recording.
5
Move the cursor to the MODE field and
press the REC button.
The REC button will flash. The Automix record
standby mode is now engaged, and the [AUTOMIX]
key will flash red.
6
Use the Layer section keys to select the
mixing layer that includes the channels you
want to operate.
For example, to record operations on the track channel
faders engage either the Layer section [TRACK 1-12]
or [TRACK 13-24] key.
7
Press the top-panel PLAY [ ] key to start
song playback.
The [AUTOMIX] key will light red and Automix
recording will begin. But at this point no channel has
been selected so no data recording will actually take
place.
8
Use the [INPUT SEL], [SEL], or [STEREO
SEL] keys to select the channel for which
Automix data is to be recorded.
The selected key will flash orange and the correspond-
ing channel’s parameters can be recorded to Automix.
Recording the Automix Data
• Scene and library recall operations will be recorded regard-
less of the OVERWRITE field button selections.
HINT
• You can also begin recording after engaging the AUTOREC
button rather than the REC button. The REC button is auto-
matically turned off when you stop recording and the record
standby mode is disengaged, but the AUTOREC button
remains on and the record standby mode remains engaged
until it is manually turned off.
HINT
• You can switch mixing layers even after Automix recording
has been started.
• If you plan to record operations performed in the Selected
Channel section it is a good idea to select the appropriate
parameters before starting recording. For example, if you plan
to record pan changes, engage the Selected Channel section
[PAN/EQ] key before beginning.
HINT
• Multiple channels can be selected for Automix recording.
• If you press a key that is flashing orange during Automix
recording, the key will light continuously and Automix record-
ing for the corresponding channel will be disengaged
(punched out). Refer to “Punch In and Out of Automix” on
page 185 for details.
