Model LR16 [Recorder functions / Recording/playback]
Performing overdub
(1) Press the [PLAY] key while holding down
the [RECORD] key to start recording
(overdubbing) and play the guitar.
You can play the guitar while monitoring
the playback signals of tracks 1 and 2.
(2) When recording finishes, press the [STOP]
key in the recorder or mixer section to stop
the recorder.
You can check the result of the overdubbed
project (see "Playing back a project" on page
50 for details about how to play back a
project).
<Note>: Do not press the [NEW PRJ. REC]
key in the mixer section.
<Memo>: The data before performing overdub-
bing is stored to the "LOG" folder in the project
as an ADL file. If you are not satisfied with the
result, you can roll back the previous project
data before overdubbing (see page 67 for de-
tails).
<Memo>: When you stop recording, the display
shows the following message while the LR16 is
performing post recording. The more times you
edit the project or the more tracks you record
to, the longer it takes for post recording.

Mixdown
Regardless of whether a project has been recorded track by track using overdubbing technique or
recorded all tracks simultaneously, you can play back tracks 1 through 16 of the project and tailor
them using the equalizers and internal effects, then send them to the stereo buss via the pan and fader
on each mixer channel. In the following procedure, it is assumed that the recorder is stopped at the
beginning of the recorded project.
<Hint>: To mix down the recorded project, set the channel
source of each mixer channel to the recorder track and
play back the recorder. Then tailor each mixer input signal
(= each track signal) using the channel equalizer and inter-
nal effects, and send it to the stereo buss via the pan and
fader. In result, all recorder track signals are mixed to the
stereo buss.

<Note>:
The mixed stereo signal can be recorded inter-

<Note>:
If the FS of the project to be mixed down does
not match the "Default FS" setting in the "System" menu
of the MENU mode, you cannot record the stereo mix
signal (the "FS/Bit" indication flashes on the display for
warning). In such a case, change the "Default FS" setting
to match the project.
(3) After adjusting the input level of channel 3,
stop the recorder by pressing the [STOP]
key in the recorder or mixer section.
If you press the [STOP] key in the recorder
section, the recorder stops at the current
position. If you press the [STOP] key in the
mixer section, the recorder skips back to
the beginning of the project (ABS 0) and
stops.
