Punching in and out
Punching in/out is a technique to replace a part
of an already recorded track.
Start playback and when you reach the part
that you want to replace, switch to record
(punch in), then switch back to playback (or
stop) when you nish the part that you want to
replace (punch out).
1 Decide what part of the track you plan
to replace and choose a point to begin
where the new recording can sit well
with the existing recording.
2 Press the REC key of the track that you
plan to replace part of to start record
standby (REC indicator blinks).
3 Start playback before the part of the
track that you want to replace.
4 Press the record (–) key to start
recording (punch in) when you reach
the part. Play or sing what you want to
record.
5 Press the playback (Á) key to switch to
playback (punch out) when you finish
the replacement recording.
TIP
You can also press the stop (ª) key to
punch out at the end of the replacement
recording.
