which the signal is sent.

In the RECORD TRACK area, select a
bounce-destination track, move the cursor
to the

symbol for that track, and press

the [ENTER] key.

You can select up to four bounce-destination tracks.
The odd-numbered tracks can be connected to Bus1 L
or Bus2 L, and the even-numbered tracks can be con-
nected to Bus1 R or Bus2 R. The [SEL] key will blink
red, indicates that the corresponding track is selected
as the bounce-destination.

In the same way as for the PLAY TRACK, you can
repeatedly press the [ENTER] key to select the signal
of the desired input bus.

For example if you move the cursor to the

symbol

for RECORD TRACK 1 and repeatedly press the
[ENTER] key, the screen will change as follows.

While you record the song, raise the faders
of the bounce-source track channels and
effect return channels to an appropriate
level. Adjust the pan, EQ, and dynamics of
each channel as necessary.

To check the level that is being output from
Bus 1/Bus 2 to the bounce-destination
tracks, press the [METER] key and then the
[F3] key.

The METER screen Master page will appear.

Here you can check the output levels for Bus 1 and
Bus 2.

tination bus. For details, refer to “Applying Effects via Send
and Return” (

p. 117).

NOTE

• To control the effect return channels, make the Layer section

[IN 1-8] key (or [IN 9-16] key) light.
