bounce-destination (the channel to be recorded) will blink red, and the bounce-sources (the play-

back channels) will be lit green.

9 CH ON button

channel buttons

to switch each channel

between enabled and disabled. You can also use this as a mute function.

10 BOUNCE button (0)

recorder between recording and playback. The track setting will alternate each time you press a

channel button

. If the master track’s

channel button

is in Play mode all other tracks will auto-

matically be muted (silent), and if it is in Record mode all other tracks will automatically be in Play

mode.

12 MASTER fader

This adjusts the overall volume. When you’re recording the master track, this sets the recording

level.

When recording, you will normally leave the MASTER fader at 0 dB and adjust the channel faders so that the

output does not distort.

As you repeatedly press this button, the master track will cycle between Record (lit red), Play (lit

green), and Off (dark).
