Making a Multi-Track Recording
Re-Recording a Specified Portion
(Punch-In/Punch-Out)
When you listen to a performance that you recorded, you may notice that
even though the overall performance is good, a mistake was made or the
wrong lyrics were sung in just one location. In such cases you can use the
following procedure to re-record just the portion in which the mistake
occurred. This is called Punch-in/Punch-out.

1
Press [FADER/MUTE] so that the TR (track) indicator is lit.
2
Hold down [REC] and press the [STATUS] button of the track
that you wish to re-record. [STATUS] will blink red.
3
Press [PLAY]. The song will play back.
Although it will appear
that the audio data is
overwritten by this process,
the data that is no longer
played back is not actually
erased from the hard disk.
This means that the
available recording time
will decrease when you
punch-in/punch-out. If
you wish to increase the
available recording time,
please read “Deleting an
Erased Recording from the
Disk (Song Optimize)” (p.
53).

Punch-In Recording
When you perform punch-in recording, you must make sure that the
previously-recorded track and the source now being recorded are at the same
volume. During playback, you can alternately monitor the track and the source
by pressing the [STATUS] button of the track that you wish to re-record.
Compare the sounds to make sure that there is no difference in level between
them. If necessary, use the INPUT knob to adjust the input sensitivity (p. 38) or
the input channel fader to adjust the recording level (p. 40).
