1)While the recorder is stopped, press the [1-8 > NEW SONG] key.

The [1-8 > NEW SONG] key lights up and the display shows the screen below.

If you execute track bouncing, press the [MENU/ENTER] knob while holding down the [RECORD] key. If you cancel track bouncing, press the [STOP] key.

2)Press the [MENU/ENTER] knob while holding down the [RECORD] key.

Track bouncing starts. The mixed (bounced) signals are recorded to tracks 7/8 of a new song. The screen example below shows that tracks 1 through 8 of Song02 (whose name is “Moonlit”) is now being bounced to tracks 7/8 of the new song (Song04). Meters 1 through 8 show the playback levels of tracks 1 through 8, while the L and R meters shows the recording levels of tracks 7/8 of Song04.

<Note>: When you are going to execute track bouncing, if there is not enough space on the hard disk or 99 songs already exist on the disk, a warning message appears and the operation is canceled.

When track bouncing to a new song completes, the recorder automatically stops and the dis- play shows the home screen of the new song.

The song name of the new song is given by the name of the original song with “-**” (** is a two-digit number).

You can check the result by following the pro- cedure described in “Checking the bounced signals on tracks 7/8” on page 69.

<Track bouncing while mixing signals from [INPUT A] through [INPUT D]>

When you bounce tracks 1 through 8 to tracks 7/ 8 of the new song, you can also mix signals from [INPUT A] through [INPUT D] together (see page 72).

<Note>: To stop track bouncing, press the [STOP] key. Pressing the [STOP] key also turns off the bounce mode. If you stop track bouncing in the middle, the new song is automatically deleted.

<Exporting bounced data to a PC>

Song data bounced to tracks 7/8 of the new song can be exported to a PC.

You can use the exported data as a source when burning an original audio CD using a CD-RW drive, or use it with a computer's music software (see page 90).
