Press the
MP3
key until it flashes green, and select
the MP3 file to be played back.
The guitar and microphone inputs cannot be assigned
to the tracks in this mode. The MP3 file can be
recorded on either tracks 1 and 2, or 3 and 4. Arm
tracks 1 and 2 (or 3 and 4) and start recording (
PLAY
+
RECORD
). The MP3 will be played back and
recorded to the armed tracks.
Adjust the level of the MP3 playback (and hence the
level that the tracks record at) using the
MASTER
fader.
Stop playback, make sure the
MP3
key is off, and
rewind.
Patch the inputs to the unused tracks. You can then
start singing or playing along to the MP3 playback
on the other two tracks, and add harmony vocals to
your favorite numbers, etc.
