The overdubbing function allows you to record to the desired track(s) while monitoring the playback
signal(s) of the other recorded track(s). The overdubbing can be performed in insert mode. The
following shows the procedure example of recording a guitar to track 3 while monitoring the keyboard
recorded on tracks 1 and 2. It is assumed that the recorder is stopped at the beginning of the project
(PRO001).
Overdubbing
<Memo>: You can transfer a project (or a stereo mix file) to a personal computer by directly connecting
the computer to the LR16 or via a USB memory stick. (See page 74 for details about how to transfer to a
computer. See page 68 for details about how to copy to a USB memory stick.) You can mix down the
project recorded on tracks 1 through 16, as well as can replace a part with the new one using the punch
in/out function (see the next pages).
<Note>:
If the FS of the project to be overdubbed
does not match the "Default FS" setting in the
"System" menu of the MENU mode, you cannot
perform overdubbing (the "FS/Bit" indication
flashes on the display for warning). In such a
case, change the "Default FS" setting to match
the project.
