Re-recording only part of the automix
(Punch-in/out)
If you make a mistake in your operations while
recording automix, you can use the automix punch-
in/out function to re-record just the incorrect part. As
an example, here’s how to use punch-in/out to re-
record the previously-recorded pan operations for
monitor channel 1.
1
Locate the song to a location slightly earlier
than the point at which you want to
punch-in.
2
Press the [AUTOMIX] key
→
[F1] key.
Make sure that the AUTOMIX button indicates
“ENABLE.”
3
Move the cursor to the OVERWRITE area.
Turn the PAN button on, and the other
buttons (FADER, CH ON, EQ) off.
4
Move the cursor to the AUTO REC button
in the display, and press the [ENTER] key.
The AUTO REC button will turn on (highlighted),
and automix will be in record-ready mode.
When you use the AUTO REC button instead of
the REC button, record-ready mode will not be
defeated even you start and then stop recording.
It is convenient to use the AUTO REC button
when you will be repeatedly recording and play-
ing back, as when using punch-in/out. If you use
the AUTO REC button, begin automix recording
before you use the [SEL] key to select a channel.
It is not necessary to press the [SEL] key before
you start recording.
5
Press the [PAN] key
→
[F2] key.
The PAN screen Pan MONI page will appear.
6
Press the RECORDER [1-8] key.
Monitor channels 1–8 will be selected as the
mixing layer.
7
Press the top panel PLAY [
] key to begin
song playback.
The [AUTOMIX] key will light red, and automix
will be in record mode. However at this point,
nothing will be recorded since the recording
channel has not yet been selected.
8
When the song reaches the desired punch-
in location, press [SEL] key 1.
[SEL] key 1 will blink, and pan operations for
monitor channel 1 will be recorded (punch-in).
In the display, the cursor will move to the PAN
knob of monitor channel 1.
9
Turn the [DATA/JOG] dial to change the
pan (PAN knob) setting.
10
When you have finished making settings,
once again press the [SEL] key that you
pressed in step 8.
The [SEL] key will go dark, and recording will
end (punch-out). Automix can continue to be
recorded, but since a recording channel has not
been selected, nothing will be actually be
recorded.
Tip!
Even if you did not operate pan in step 9, the pan
operation events that had been recorded between the
punch-in and punch-out will be erased. This method
can be used to erase undesired events from a specific
section.
11
Press the top panel STOP [
] key.
A popup window will ask whether you want to
update the recorded contents.
