7.Listening to recorded tracks while you record another track (Overdubbing)

The process of recording additional tracks while you listen to previously recorded tracks is called “overdubbing”.

As an example, we will explain how you can play- back the sound that was recorded on track 1, and perform analog recording on track 2.

Select the playback/recording tracks

1Press the track 1 [TRACK STATUS] key several times to select PLAY (indicator lit green), to enable (the previously recorded) track 1 for playback.

2Press the track 2 [TRACK STATUS] key to select REC (ANALOG) (indicator blinking red), to enable it as the recording track.

3Either turn down [CHANNEL] faders 3–7/8, or press their [TRACK STATUS] keys several times to select MUTE (indicator off), to mute these tracks so that they will not sound during playback.

Connecting the input device for the record- ing track and adjusting the level

4As shown in “Connecting the input device and adjusting the level” (p.11, p.12), connect an instru- ment etc. to the INPUT 1 jack, and set the input level.

5Raise or lower the [CHANNEL] fader of the play- back track to a volume that will be comfortable for playing along with.

Starting and stopping recording

6Press the [REC] key, and then press the [PLAY] key to begin recording. Press the [STOP] key to stop recording. (Refer to “Starting and stopping recording”, p.11)

Listening to the recorded performance (Play- back)

7Move the current time to a location earlier than the point at which you began recording. Then set the [TRACK STATUS] of the recorded track to PLAY, and press the [PLAY] key to begin playback. Press the [STOP] key to stop playback. (Refer to “Listening to the recorded performance (Play- back)”, p.11)

8.Manually re-recording part of the performance (Manual Punch In/Out)

If you made a mistake during the performance that you recorded, or if you were not able to play the entire song as you had intended, there is no need to re-record the entire song — you can re-record just the part that you need.

“Punch In” is the action of switching from song playback to record, and “Punch Out” is the action of switching back from recording to playback.

“Manual Punch In/Out” is when you perform the Punch In and Punch Out manually. On the D8, you can Punch In during playback either by pressing the [REC] key or by pressing a foot switch <sold separately>. You can Punch Out by pressing either the [REC] key or the [PLAY] key, or by pressing a foot switch.

Connecting the input device and adjusting the level

1As explained in “Connecting the input device and adjusting the level” (p.12), connect the input device and adjust the level. At this time, make adjustments so that there is no difference between the volume of the instrument that is being input and the volume of the track.

Select the input monitor

2Press the [SYSTEM] key several times (indicator lit) to access the “Mon” display. Then rotate the [VALUE] dial to select Auto.

3Move the current time location to a point earlier than the location that you wish to re-record. If you hold down the [STOP] key and press the [REW] key, you will move to the beginning of the song.

4Press the [PLAY] key (indicator lit) to begin playback.

The [TRACK STATUS] indicator which

hear the sound of the track.

 

For tracks whose [TRACK STATUS] is set to REC, the EQ and fader will affect only the input sound, and will not affect the playback sound. After adjusting the input level, do not modify the fader or EQ settings during playback, since this will change the volume and EQ of the input sound.
