Chapter 7: Advanced Technique for Mixing
The DPS16 is designed for ease of operation from recording to mixdown, similar to a cassette multitrack recorder.
It also enables you to combine various functions for more advanced mixing operations. This chapter introduces
advanced techniques for mixing with the DPS16.
Assigning virtual tracks to physical tracks
The DPS16 provides 250 virtual tracks for sixteen physical tracks. You cannot directly control the virtual tracks,
but you can record, play, and edit them by assigning them to the physical tracks. For example, if you record each
take in several virtual tracks for overdubbing a given part, you can select the best take for mixdown later. This
section explains how to record multiple takes of a guitar solo while switching the virtual tracks assigned to
physical tracks.
1. Press the [V. TRACK] key.
The DPS16 enters V. Track mode where you can assign virtual tracks to physical tracks and displays the
following Assign Virtual Track screen.
