Chapter 10 Track and Phrase Editing

You cannot mix on one V track regularly recorded audio with audio that has been recorded with the CDR Recording Mode ON.

In Songs that use a Recording Mode other than “CDR” follow these rules:

Even on the mastering tracks, new phrases from takes recorded in CDR Mode can only be created on V-tracks which already have been recorded with “CDR” data, or to new V-tracks which have no data recorded on them.

V-tracks recorded within a song with a recording mode other than “CDR” cannot be used as takes for new phrases on mastering tracks which are already recorded with the “CDR” recording mode ON.

If the above rules are not followed, and the New Phrase command would mix CDR audio with regular audio, then “Illegal Track!” appears in the display and phrase new cannot be executed. Please press [ENTER/YES] and select the destination track to create a new phrase again.

11.When the display indicates “Complete,” press [PLAY (DISPLAY)]. You will return to Play mode.

Naming Takes

You can assign a name to a take in the Phrase New window. When you do so, you also have the option of automatically re-naming any phrases that play a part of the take.

1.Press [PLAY (DISPLAY)].

2.Hold down [SHIFT] and press [F2 (TRACK)].

3.Press [F1 (Tr/Ph)] to make the Phrase Edit Menu appear.

4.Press [PAGE] so that [F3] indicates “New,” and then press [F2 (New)].

5.Press [F1 (Take)].

6.Use the TIME/VALUE dial to move the cursor to the take whose name you wish to change.

7.Press [F6 (Name)].

8.The Take Name window will appear. Use [ ],

[ ], [ ], and [ ] and the TIME/VALUE knob to assign a name to the take.

Phrase Name

With each recording, the following phrase names are assigned automatically.

4-digit number

Phrase Name (same as Track Name)

V-track containing the Phrase

Track containing the Phrase

You can change phrase names. Identifying a phrase by its use can make editing simpler, since it leaves you less to remember. For example, on a guitar track, one phrase might be labeled “Riff,” and another phrase labeled “Solo.”

If you press [NUMERICS/ASCII] so it is lit, you can use the SELECT buttons and STATUS buttons to enter characters in a fashion similar to a computer keyboard.

At this time, the function buttons perform the following operations.

[F1 (Hist)]: Each time you press the button, you will cycle backward through the last twenty names that were assigned.

[F2 (Clr)]: Delete all characters.

[F3 (Del)]: Delete the character at the cursor location.

[F4 (Ins)]: Insert a space at the cursor location.

[F5 (Write)]: Finalize the take name and exit the window.

[F6 (EXIT)]: Exit the window without finalizing the take name.
