7 – Recorder Functions
Bouncing tracks
Use this unit’s bounce function to mix already recorded tracks
(1–8) down to one or two tracks.
Multitrack tape recorders can only bounce to an open track (in
other words, they can not record to a track that is also a source
of the mix). For example, tracks 1–7 could be bounced to track
8, but tracks 1–8 could not be bounced to track 1. This unit,
however, does not have this limitation. You can bounce tracks
1–8 to mix down to tracks 1 and 2 (stereo bounce), or bounce
tracks 1–8 as a mono mix to track 1 (mono bounce).
NOTE
Inside this unit, a mixdown is made to create a mix master
that is recorded to the designated tracks.

Bounce tracks 1-8 to mix down to tracks 1-2
Source tracks are erased when they are bounce destinations.
(In the illustration above the drum parts are overwritten
by the stereo mix). However, you can use the unit’s (undo)
function to return to the previous state if you make a
mistake (see “Undoing the last operation (single undo)” on
page 36).
Using the bounce function
1 In multitrack mode, press the BOUNCE button.
After the
Bounce !
pop-up message appears, the unit
switches to BOUNCE mode and the Home Screen reopens.
2 Press the REC buttons for the bounce destination tracks (the
indicators blink).
For a stereo bounce, press the REC buttons for any two
tracks. For a mono bounce (bouncing the mix to a single
track) press the REC button for any one track.
3 Adjust the track faders and PAN knobs for the bounce source
tracks.
When making a stereo bounce, the lower numbered track is
the left (L) side.
For a mono bounce, turn the PAN knobs of the bounce
source tracks all the way to L.
Use the MASTER fader to adjust the overall level.
4 After returning to the start of the song, press the PLAY (Á)
button while pressing and holding the RECORD (–) button
to start the bounce.
Confirming the result
Mute the bounce source tracks (see “Muting tracks” on page
49), and play the song from the beginning.
If you are not satisfied with the result because, for example, the
balance between instruments is poor, or the pan settings are
wrong, use the undo function (see “Undoing the last operation
(single undo)” on page 36).
If you are satisfied with the result, press the BOUNCE button to
return to the
MULTI TRACK
mode.
After bouncing tracks, you can make new recordings over the
other tracks.
TIP
If it is possible that you might need the original tracks at
some later time, back-up the track data to a computer or
copy the song before bouncing (see “Backing-up songs”
on page 61 and “Connecting with a computer” on page
60).
Locate and search functions
Direct locate function
The current recorder position is shown at the top of the
display as “hours: minutes: seconds: frames” (there are 30
frames per second). You can move the current recorder
position to a specific time by inputting it here.
1 On the Home Screen, use the HOME button to move the
cursor (underline) between time divisions. You can edit the
value at the cursor positions.
The seconds are selected in the following figure.
