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

Bouncing the desired part of a song

Typically, bouncing is executed from the beginning to the end of a song, as shown in Figure 1 below. However, you can bounce only the desired part by using the track bouncing and punch in/out functions together. The following assumes that the song you are going to execute track bouncing is loaded and you finished rehearsal of track bouncing.

The following procedure shows the example of bouncing the desired part of a song in the "Bounce 1-6 > 7/8" mode (<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).
