*During updating, “Keep power on!” appears in the upper line of the display, while the lower line shows what is being processed.

To prepare for further recording after the bouncing has been completed, the BR-900CD automatically switches to an empty V-Track at the bounce destination.

After bouncing down to two tracks, you can use the “Mastering Tool Kit” to eliminate discrepancies in volume levels throughout the song and to achieve the proper low- end balance. Refer to “Mastering” (p. 102).

(12) Turning Off the Power

To turn off the power, use the procedure described in “Turning Off the Power” (p. 28).

Before you turn off the BR-900CD, make sure to first stop any recording. If the BR-900CD is turned off during playback/ recording where the memory card is being accessed, the recorded data, mixer settings, and effect patch data may be lost.

(13) Removing the Memory Card

The power of the BR-900CD must be turned off before removing a memory card. If a memory card is inserted when the power is turned on, the data in the memory card may be destroyed, or the memory card may become unusable.
