Manual Punch In/Out

This section explains how to perform Manual Punch In/Out using a foot switch (optional Model
8051).
You do not need to specify the Punch In/Out points. Instead, you press the foot switch at the Punch
In/Out point. Manual Punch In/Out also offers rehearsal and actual takes. You can repeat rehearsal
until you are ready. As an example, replace a part of the recorded guitar solo on track 3.

• Initialize the recorder.
• Select a desired Program for Punch In/Out.
• Check a sampling frequency of the recorder and external device.

Preparation

Check to see that the guitar is connected to the input jack of the mixer, as required for [AUTO
PUNCH IN/OUT] mentioned earlier.

Connect an optional foot switch (Model 8051) to the PUNCH IN/OUT jack on the rear panel.

Rehearsing Manual Punch In/Out recording

In Rehearsal mode, the READY track enters input monitoring mode between the Punch In and Out
points (the points at which you press the foot switch), and the sound is not recorded. You can
practice the Punch In/Out operation repeatedly before you proceed to actual recording.

1. Press the foot switch while holding down the

STOP button.

[Rehearsal On] will appear on the display or about 1
second, then rehearsal mode will appear and the
REHEARSAL LED (green) of the AUTO PUNCH key flashes.

2. Press the RECORD TRACK select key [3/11]

to set track 3 to READY.

3. Press the PLAY button to play back from a

point slightly before the Punch In point.

4. Play the guitar accompanying the playback

of tracks 1 to 8.

The recording level and monitor volume is adjusted on
the mixer in the same manner as done for [AUTO PUNCH
IN/OUT] described earlier.

5. Press the foot switch once at the desired

Punch In point, then press the foot switch
again at the desired Punch Out point.

The rehearsal mode will operate as shown in the figure.
Between the Punch In and Out points the current
performance of the guitar will be played as the guitar
monitor sound. The previous recording is heard in any
other case. The RECORD LED lights up when Punching
In and turn off when Punching Out. (the REHEARSAL
LED remains flashing)
