TIPS :
• When you punch out, the AUTO PUNCH field of the AUTO PUNCH Control Panel is automatically set
to off. If you are going to perform the punch in/out operation repeatedly, it is convenient to have this
Control Panel displayed all the time during the operation.
• Refer to “Chapter 4: Punch In/Out” on page 48 for more information on the Punch In/Out function.
Mixdown
You can repeat the steps described thus far to record up to twelve tracks. However, this is not the completion of
your masterpiece. Next, you will need to set the level and pan for each recorded track, and record the data onto a
connected DAT tape recorder or cassette tape recorder. This phase of the recording process is called “mixdown.”
