TIP

If it is possible that you might need the original tracks at some later time, back-up the track data to a computer or copy the song before bouncing (see “Backing-up songs” on page 94 and “Connecting with a computer” on page 92).

Confirming the result

Raise the bounce destination track LEVEL knob (turn other track LEVEL knobs all the way down) and the MASTER LEVEL knob, and start playback from the beginning of the song. If you are not satisfied with the result because, for example, the balance between instruments is poor, or the pan settings are wrong, use the undo function (see “Undoing the last operation (single undo)” on page 66).

If you are satisfied with the result, press the REC MODE key to open the RECORDER MODE screen and select MULTI TRACK, then press the HOME key to return to the Home Screen.

After bouncing tracks, you can make new recordings over the other tracks.
