MR-8 Owner’s Manual

Bouncingtracks

The track bounce function of the MR-8 allows you to mix several tracks and record onto two other tracks. Two modes of track bounce are available: bouncing tracks 1 through 4 to tracks 5/6 ("1-4 > 5/6" mode), and bouncing tracks 1 through 6 to tracks 7/8 ("1-6 > 7/8" mode). In either mode, you can apply a reverb (or delay) and control panning for tracks 1 through 4 when bouncing to two tracks in stereo.

Furthermore, you can apply the mastering effect to the mixed signals. By deleting the original track data after track bouncing, you can record new materials onto these tracks. See the following for details.

<Example of track bouncing>

You can record more than eight materials using the track bounce function as shown in the follow- ing example.
