Auto punch in/out
You can use the punch in/out function to perform an
automatic record from the punch in to the punch out
points you previously set .
When performing the auto punch in/out recording, the
playback starts from the pre-roll point before the start
recording point (punch in point) and when punch in
point is reached, the record starts. After that, when the
recording end point (punch out point) is reached, the unit
switches to the playback of the post-roll part and stops.
In the auto punch in/out recording, the recording track
monitor changes as follows.
Pre-roll period: Track playback input source
•
signal
Punch in
• a q
punch out interval: Input source signal
Post-roll period: Track playback input source
•
signal
In the auto punch in/out function of this unit, the above
monitoring changes occur not only during the actual
recording, but also in the Rehearsal mode.
In Rehearsal mode, you can simulate the auto punch
in/out recording. Therefore, you can rehearse your
performance and also check whether the IN point and
OUT point are appropriately set.
You can also use the punch in/out in combination with the
repeat function. By using these functions in combination,
you can repeatedly rehearse the punch in/out recording,
or record the same section several times (multi-take),
leaving the unit working automatically to you. When
performing multitrack recording, you can choose the best
from recorded takes.
