About the Digital Recorder
The JUNO-Gi’s digital recorder lets you record the JUNO-Gi’s
performance and the sound of a connected guitar or microphone on
separate tracks. You can also save your completed song as an audio  le
on an SD card, and then use your computer to create a CD from it or
distribute it via the Internet.
Tracks and V-tracks
The digital recorder provides eight tracks. Each track consists of eight
virtual tracks (V-tracks), and you can select one of these V-tracks for
playback and recording. In other words, you can use 8 x 8 = 64 tracks
to record your performance, and choose eight of these for playback.

Insert E ects
The digital recorder provides e ects (i.e., separately from the
synthesizer’s e ects) that are powerful enough to rival a standalone
e ects processor, and you can apply these e ects to your guitar or
other source while you record.
What is an E ect Patch?
The insert e ects provide numerous e ects, such as amp modeling
and overdrive. An “E ect Patch” is a combination of these e ects
together with their settings.
