■Creating a new song

In order to begin recording on the AW2400, you must first create a new song.

1 Call the Song List page by either pressing the Work Navigate section [SONG] key as many times as necessary, or by pressing the [F1] key after pressing the [SONG] key.

The SONG screen Song List page will appear. The currently selected song in the Song List will be high- lighted (inverted).

2 Move the cursor to the NEW button and press the [ENTER] key.

A popup window will ask you whether you want to save the current song.

•Pressing the [F3] key while holding the Display section [SHIFT] key has the same effect as the NEW button.

3 Move the cursor to YES (to save the current song) or NO (if you don’t want to save the current song) and press the [ENTER] key.

A popup window containing the various settings for the new song will appear.

The following settings can be made via this popup window.

•Fs ............................... The sample rate of the new song can be set to either 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.

•Recbit ........................ The bit depth of the new song can be set to either 16 or 24 bits.

•Sound Clip Time ....... The record time of the Sound Clip.

NOTE

•If you set the sample rate to 48 kHz, the song data will not be able to be written as an audio CD.

4 When each parameter has been set as required, move the cursor to the OK button and press the [ENTER] key.

Next, a popup window will appear allowing you to specify settings that will be carried over from the cur- rent song.

•SCENE Button .......... Scene memories

•TEMPO button........... Tempo map

•LIBRARY button ....... EQ, dynamics, effects, and channel libraries

For example, if you have saved effect settings in a library for the current song and would like to use these settings for the new song as well, you would turn on the LIBRARY button.
