7. Since we are recording on track 1, turn the pan knob of
channel 1 fully toward the L position.
8. As in steps 2–8, make the same settings for channels 2
and 3.

When you begin recording, the sources being input to
INPUT 1Ð3 will be recorded together onto track 1.
Collecting just the sections
that you like
After listening to the recordings on each V-track, suppose
that you wanted to use the intro from V-track 1 and the
break from V-track 2, etc. In such cases, copy the desired
sections to a different V-track to assemble the sections into a
single V-track.
The following procedure shows an example in which sec-
tions recorded on V-tracks 1, 2, and 3 of track 1 are assem-
bled by copying them onto V-track 4.
1. Switch V-tracks, and register Locate points for the times
at which you wish to copy data from them (p.14). For
this example, use LOC 1–5.
2. Prepare V-track 1 of track 1 for playback.
3. Press [TRACK], use PARAMETER [ ][ ] to get
the “TRK Track Copy?” display, and press [YES]. The
display will allow you to select the copy source track,
and copy destination track and V-track.
4. Specify the copy source and copy destination track.
Press [SEL (EDIT)] of track 1, and V-track 1 of track 1
will be selected as the copy source. Next, press CUR-
SOR [ ] to make the copy destination field blink,
press [SEL (EDIT)] of track 1, and use the
TIME/VALUE dial to select V-track 4 as the copy desti-
nation.
5. As you repeatedly press PARAMETER [ ], the copy
setting items will be displayed consecutively. For these
items, use [LOC 1/5]–[LOC 4/8] to make settings.
St (Start point):
Specify the starting time
of the copy source data.
For V-track 1 specify
ÒLOC 1.Ó
Frm (From point): Specify the time of the
copy source data which
will be copied to the To
Point. For V-track 1, speci-
fy ÒLOC 1Ó just as you did
for the Start Point.
End (End point): Specify the ending time of
the copy source data. For
V-track 1, specify ÒLOC
2.Ó
To (To point): Specify the base time of
the copy destination. For
V-track 1, specify ÒLOC 1Ó
just as you did for the
Start Point.
Copy Time: Specify the number of
copies (1Ð99). In this
example, specify Ò1.Ó
6. As you repeatedly press PARAMETER [ ], a confir-
mation message will appear at the end. Press [YES] to
execute the copy.
When the copy has been completed, you will return to
Play condition.
7. Using the same procedure as steps 2–6, copy the
desired areas of V-tracks 2 and 3 to V-track 4. When
you have finished copying, select V-track 4 and check
the playback of the assembled data.
