In the effect pages, the faders can be used to edit the effect. In the mixer pages, the faders can be used to edit the pan and effect send of each track.

(→ p.63)

1, 2, 3, 4:

These faders adjust the volume level of each track.

For tracks not selected for recording by “REC SELECT,” the fader adjusts the playback volume level.

For tracks selected for recording by “REC SELECT,” the fader adjusts the recording level of the external input.

MASTER:

This fader adjusts the master L/R bus volume level. When recording an external input, this fader adjusts the master L/R bus volume level.

1. PLAY

This key plays back the currently selected song.

If a [REC SELECT] key has been used to select a recording track, recording will begin when you press this key after pressing the [REC] key.

When the recorder is recording or playing back, the

“” indicator will light. During playback, pressing this key will play back at half-speed, which is a conve- nient way for you to practice along with a recorded per- formance that is too fast for you to play at normal speed. Punch-recording cannot be used at this time. (→ p.27: Punch-in/out)

During track editing, you can press this key when setting the In, Out, To, or End points to hear the playback for approximately two seconds from that time location.

If you hold down the [SHIFT] key and press this key, the stored songs will play back consecutively. (→ p.31: Chain Play)
