Combining the Contents of
Tracks (Track Bouncing)
You can mix the performances recorded on two or
more tracks and rerecord them onto a different empty
track. This operation is known as track bouncing. It is
a convenient technique to use when you have run out
of free tracks.
In this section, we will mix the performances recorded
on tracks 1–4, and rerecord the result in stereo on
tracks 5 and 6.
* Volume, pan, equalizer, effects, and other settings cannot
be adjusted on tracks mixed with track bouncing. Do not
use track bouncing with tracks to which you want to
apply the equalizer and effects separately.

source. However, the sources that are assigned

mix bus. If it is not assigned to a recording bus
