Signal flow of track bouncing

The following shows the signal flow for each of three track bouncing modes.

• "1-4 > 5/6" mode (see page 66)

In the "1-4 > 5/6" mode, tracks 1 through 4 are played back, mixed down to stereo, and bounced to tracks 5/6.

You can apply a reverb (or delay) to tracks 1 through 4, as well as the mastering effect to the mixed signals.

You can also mix signals from the [INPUT A] through [INPUT D] channels during track bouncing.

•"1-8 > NEW SONG" mode (see page 70)

In the "1-8 > NEW SONG" mode, tracks 1 through 8 are played back, mixed down to stereo, and bounced to tracks 7/8 of a new song which is automatically created. So this bouncing mode allows you to internally record a stereo master without the need of an external master recorder.

In this mode, you can apply a reverb (or delay) to tracks 1 through 4, as well as the mastering effect to the mixed signals.

You can also mix signals from the [INPUT A] through [INPUT D] channels during track bouncing.

From headphones (or monitor speakers), you can hear the signals bounced to tracks 7/8 of the new song.
