• The Last Punch In= and Out= fields:

These two fields are indicators only—they cannot be manually

changed. They are used to indicate the exact locations of the

punch-in and punch-out that was last performed manually.

• The <Turn on > soft key:

Pressing this turns on the Auto Punch function, as indicated by

the status light above the key. If Auto Punch is already on, the

soft key text shows <Turn off> and pressing it turns both

Auto Punch and the light off.

• The <Use 'Last'> soft key:

Pressing this soft key causes the contents of the Last Punch

In=

and Out= fields to be copied into the Auto Punch In=

and Out= fields. This is useful when you want Auto Punch to

automatically repeat the last manual punch.

To perform the AUTO PUNCH:

Once you have entered the punch-in and punch-out locations and

you have turned Auto Punch mode on by pressing SOFT KEY 1,

locate to a position within the sequence that is a few bars before

the punch-in point. Then enter Record mode as usual by pressing

PLAY and RECORD simultaneously. Since the Auto Punch

function is on, however, Record mode is not yet entered. Instead,

the RECORD light blinks until the punch-in point is reached.

When it is reached, Record mode is automatically entered and

the RECORD light stops blinking and stays on continuously.

When the punch-out point is reached, Record mode is automati-

cally exited and the RECORD light goes off, but play continues.

It is also possible to use Auto Punch to enter and exit Overdub

mode automatically. To do this, follow the example given above,

but instead of pressing RECORD, press OVERDUB. The mode

that is entered is determined by which key is pressed, RECORD

or OVERDUB.
