Cancelling Rehearsal mode
1. While holding down the STOP button, press the foot
switch.
[Rehsl Off] appears for a second, the flashing [RHSL]
indicator in the A. PUNCH display area disappears, and
Rehearsal mode is cancelled.
<Hint>
To rehearse repeatedly, set the AUTO RTN START point slightly
before the Punch In point, and the AUTO RTN END point slightly
before the Punch Out point.
This will help you concentrate on your performance or check the
recording level easily (especially since Manual Punch In/Out involves
operating the foot switch operation as well as the FD-8). (See <Hint-
2> in the “Rehearsing Auto Punch In/Out recording” for more
information.)
Manual Punch In/Out take
You can proceed to record if you are satisfied with the recording level, foot switch timing, and rehearsal.
Note: You cannot record a second take during the Manual Punch
In/Out operation without stopping the FD-8. That is, the FD-8 will
continue playing after you finish recording a take, but you cannot
record another take by pressing the foot switch.
1. Confirm that Rehearsal mode is cancelled, and start
playing the FD-8 from a point slightly before the
desired Punch In point.
2. Play the guitar, accompanying the playback of
tracks 1 to 8.
3. Press the foot switch at the desired Punch In point.
Press the foot switch again at the desired Punch
Out point.
The FD-8 will operate as follows. The FD-8 enters
recording mode at the Punch In point, and cancels
recording mode at the Punch Out point.
4. Press the STOP button.
5. Play track 3 and check the result of Punch In/Out.
<Caution after Punch Out>
At “Take” of punch out, the punch-in recording track will not
immediately enter the repro monitor mode from the input
monitor mode enter the repro monitor mode about two
seconds after mute playback. This is a functional feature of
FD-8 and not a malfunction.
