MR-8mkII Owner’s Manual (Track bouncing)
Typically, bouncing is executed from the beginning to the end of a song, as shown in Figure 1
below. However, you can bounce only the desired part by using the track bouncing and punch
in/out functions together. The following assumes that the song you are going to execute track
bouncing is loaded and you finished rehearsal of track bouncing.
The following procedure shows the example of bouncing the desired part of a song in the "Bounce
1-6 > 7/8" mode
(<Caution!>: In the “1-8 > NEW SONG” mode, you cannot bounce the desired part of a
song by using the track bouncing and auto punch in/out functions together) .
1) Set the punch-in and punch-out points (see page
56).
By pressing the [PLAY] key while holding down
the [STOP] key, you can play back the part
between the punch-in and punch-out points
(see page 46).
2) Locate the recorder to a position before the
punch-in point.
3) Press the [1-4>5/6, 1-6>7/8] key to set the bounce
mode to "1-6>7/8".
When setting the bounce mode to "1-6>7/8",
tracks 7/8 automatically enter the input
monitor mode and "
" lights on the
home screen.
