MR-8HD/CDOwner’s Manual (Track bouncing)

Bouncing tracks 1 through 8 to a new song

You can bounce tracks 1 through 8 to tracks 7/8 of a new song. A new song is automatically created when executing track bouncing (<Note>: In the “1-8 > NEW SONG” mode, you cannot bounce

the desired part of a song by using the track bouncing and auto punch in/out functions together).

<Using bounced track data>

By converting bounced track data (in two mono WAV files) to a stereo WAV file, you can export it to a personal computer or create an original audio CD using the internal (or an external) CD-R/ RW drive. See page 90 for details about how to export a file to a personal computer. See the supplementary manual "How to use the CD-R/RW drive" for details about burning an audio CD using the internal (or an external) CD-R/RW drive.

Rehearsal of track bouncing

Before executing track bouncing, you can rehearse it. While rehearsing track bouncing, you can control the playback level, panning and reverb (or delay) send setting of each source track, as well as apply the mastering effect to the mixed L/R signals. We recommend to make rehearsal thoroughly until you are satisfied with the sound. The following assumes that the song you are going to execute track bouncing is loaded.

2)Press the [PLAY] key to start playback from the beginning of the song.

3)While playing back the song, adjust playback levels of tracks 1 through 8 using the track faders.

You can also adjust panning for tracks 1 through 4 and apply the reverb or delay to these tracks, as well as apply the mastering effect to the mixed sound. During rehearsal and actual track bounc- ing, the track faders and [MASTER] fader control the following signal levels.

Faders	Playback levels of tracks 1 through 8
1 through 8	for bouncing.
[MASTER]	Recording master levels of bouncing.

During rehearsal and actual track bouncing, the level meters on the screen show the fol- lowing signal levels.
