Chapter 4: Punch In/Out

Punch In/Out Rehearsal

Rehearsal is a function that enables you to practice playing instruments or singing a song, pretending to punch in/

out record, but nothing is actually recorded.

This is useful when you wish to practice the punch in/out timing and check the range of auto punch in/out. In this

section, we offer the example of rehearsing the manual punch in/out operation and explain how to use the Re-

hearsal function.

1. Locate a position a little before the punch in point.

✐

TIP :

It is a good idea to locate about four measures before the punch in point for successful punch in/out.

2. Use the [RECORD SELECT] key to select a recording track.

The selected track’s LED flashes, indicating that the track enters record ready mode.

3. Press the [F4] (SELECT) key and rotate the [JOG] wheel to select AUTO PUNCH function.

4. Press the [F2] key to set the REHEARS parameter to “ON ”.

The Rehearsal function is now turned on. Nothing will be recorded under this condition.

✐

TIP :

Press the

[F2]

key again to cancel the Rehearsal function.

5. Press the [ ] button.

The [ ] button’s LED lights up and the playback starts. You can monitor the recorder’s playback (previously

recorded sound) through the record-ready track.

6. When the punch in point is reached, press the [REC] button while holding down the [ ] button.

The signal being monitored through the record-ready track switches from the recorder’s playback sound to the

input source sound, but nothing is recorded.

7. When the punch out point is reached, press the [ ] button.

The monitoring signal switches from the input source to the recorder’s playback sound.

8. Press the [ ] button to stop playback.
