Rehearsing Punch In/Out recording
In Rehearsal mode, the READY track enters input monitor-
ing mode between the Punch In and Out points (the points
at which you press the foot switch), and the sound is not
recorded. You can practice the Punch In/Out operation re-
peatedly before you proceed to actual recording.
1. Press the foot switch while holding down the STOP button.
The FD-4 displays [Rehsl On] for a second and enters
Rehearsal mode.
[RHSL] flashes in the A.PUNCH display area.
6. When you finish rehearsing, press the STOP button.
If you are still unsatisfied, repeat steps 3–5.
Press the foot switch at
the Punch Out point.
Cancelling Rehearsal mode
1. While holding down the STOP button, press the foot switch.
[Rehsl Off] appears for a second, the flashing [RHSL]
indicator in the A. PUNCH display area disappears, and
Rehearsal mode is cancelled.
<Hint>
To rehearse repeatedly, set the AUTO RTN START point slightly
before the Punch In point, and the AUTO RTN END point slightly
before the Punch Out point.
This will help you concentrate on your performance or check the
recording level easily (especially since Manual Punch In/Out in-
volves operating the foot switch operation as well as the FD-4).
(See <Hint-2> in the “Rehearsing Auto Punch In/Out recording” for
more information.)
Manual Punch In/Out take
You can proceed to record if you are satisfied with the re-
cording level, foot switch timing, and rehearsal.
<Note>
You cannot record a second take during the Manual Punch In/Out
operation without stopping the FD-4. That is, the FD-4 will continue
playing after you finish recording a take, but you cannot record an-
other take by pressing the foot switch.
