you began recording. Then set the [TRACK STA-
TUS] to PLAY for the track that you recorded, press

6. Applying the dedicated
delay to the input sound
In addition to the effect that was discussed in “4.
Applying an effect to the input sound as you record”
and “5. Applying an effect to the input sound and
recording only the input sound”, the D8 provides a
“monitor delay” that can be applied only to the input
sound. When you are recording vocals or guitar,
applying this delay will give the sound a sense of
spaciousness. This delay will not be recorded. Since
the monitor delay is not part of the internal effect, it
lets you use the internal effect in other ways.
Connecting the input device and adjusting
the level
1 Refer to “1. Recording (analog recording), Connect-
ing the input device and adjusting the level” to con-
nect the input device and adjust the level.
It is not possible to use the effect or the monitor
delay when recording digitally.
Turning the monitor delay on/off

several times to select INPUT 1/2
(indicator lit).
3 Press [EFFECT] several times to access the
“MoniDly” display.
4 Rotate the [VALUE] dial to turn the monitor delay
on (o).
When [EFFECT ASSIGN] is set to INPUT 1/2 and
[REC SELECT] is set to INPUT 1/2, turning the
monitor delay on will only apply to tracks whose
[TRACK STATUS] is REC (ANALOG), and the
monitor delay will apply to the sound that is input
from the INPUT 1/2 jacks.
Editing the monitor delay
5 Press the [ ] key to select the monitor display
parameter that you wish to edit. Press the [ ] key
to move to the next parameter, or press the [ ]
key to move to the previous parameter (refer to
p.74).
6 Rotate the [VALUE] dial to set the value.
