Track Exchange
The Track Exchange function enables you to swap mono track data or multiple track data of the current Program
between Real tracks and Additional tracks in units of single or multiple tracks.
You can swap mono track data between Real tracks, Additional tracks, or between a Real track and an Additional
track. You can swap multiple track data between eight Real tracks (1–8) and Additional tracks (9–16 or 17–24).
Refer to the diagrams below for information on how data on the tracks can be moved using this function.
The Track Exchange function also enables you to move Real track data to an empty Additional track (to empty
the original Real track) so that you can use the Real track for a new recording. This capability lets you use tracks
more flexibly.
You need to move data on an Additional track back to a Real track to audition the data, since data on an
Additional track cannot be played in real-time.
You can also use this function when you wish to check the REC END point of an Additional track, as described in
the “Erase” section.
Swapping mono track data between Real tracks, Addi-
tional tracks, or between a Real track and an Additional
