Before executing track bounce, you can rehearse it. During rehearsal, you can control the playback
level, panning and reverb (or delay) send setting of each source track, as well as apply the mastering
effect to the mixed L/R signals. We recommend to make rehearsal thoroughly until you satisfy the
sound. The following shows the rehearsal procedure in the "1-6 > 7/8" mode. We assume that record-
ings have been already made to tracks 1 through 6.

1) Select the song you are going to bounce tracks.
2) Use the [1-4 > 5/6, 1-6 > 7/8] key to select "1-6 > 7/8"
bounce mode.
Selecting this bounce mode automatically arms
tracks 7/8 and changes the monitoring for these
tracks to input monitoring.
3) Raise the [7/8] fader and [MASTER] fader to the
"
" position. Set all the other track faders to the
minimum position.
4) Press the [PLAY] key to start playback from the
beginning of the song.
5) While playing back, adjust playback levels of tracks
1 through 4 and 5/6 using the appropriate track
faders.
You can also adjust panning for tracks 1 through 4,
apply the reverb or delay to these tracks, as well as
apply the mastering effect to the mixed sound.
During rehearsal and actual track bouncing, the
track faders and [MASTER] fader control the
following signals.
