<Note>: To cancel track bouncing in the middle,
press the [ STOP ] key. Pressing the [ STOP ] key au-
tomatically deletes the new song created in step 2
above and turns off the bounce mode.

ing, if there is not enough space on the hard disk
or 99 songs already exist on the disk, a warning
message appears and the operation is canceled.
<Track bouncing while mixing signals from [INPUT A]
through [INPUT D]>
When you bounce tracks 1 through 8 to tracks 7/8
of the new song, you can also mix signals from [IN-
PUT A] through [INPUT D] together (see page 72).
You can check the result by following the pro-
cedure described in “Checking the bounced
signals on tracks 7/8” on page 69.
4) After finishing rehearsal, press the [STOP] key
to stop the recorder and locate it to the
beginning of the song.
Track bouncing starts. The mixed (bounced) sig-
nals are recorded to tracks 7/8 of a new song.
The screen example below shows that tracks 1
through 8 of Song02 (whose name is “Moonlit”)
is now being bounced to tracks 7/8 of the new
song (Song04). Meters 1 through 8 show the play-
back levels of tracks 1 through 8, while the L and
R meters shows the recording levels of tracks 7/
8 of Song04.
The [ 1-8 > NEW SONG ] key lights up and the
display shows the screen below. If you execute
track bouncing, press the [
MENU/ENTER ] knob
while holding down the [ RECORD ] key.
If you cancel track bouncing, press the [ STOP ]
key.
and use the [MASTER] fader to adjust the mas-
ter recording levels of the bounced signals ap-
propriately while checking meters L/R. See
"Using effects" on page 57 for details about
the delay/reverb and mastering effects.
When track bouncing to a new song completes,
the recorder automatically stops and the dis-
play shows the home screen of the new song.
The song name of the new song is given by the
name of the original song with “-**” (** is a
two-digit number).
Do not move the controls and faders after fin-
ishing rehearsal. Use the track faders (1
through 8) to control the track output levels,
