Moving to a desired point in the song (Locate function)

You can specify a location within the song in time units

(minutes/seconds/milliseconds) or in measure units (measure/

beat/tick) units, and move to that location.

Hours Seconds Measure

1. With the recorder stopped, use the cursor left/right keys from the main screen to move the flashing part to the unit you want to change.

For example, to change the minutes, cause the segment

marked "M" to flash.

0 12660 307- 2.

2. Turn the dial to specify the numeric value.

On the time indication, minutes, seconds, or milliseconds can be specified. On the measure indication, measures, beats, or ticks can be specified. When you change the displayed value, the unit immediately moves to the new location. Pressing the PLAY [R] key starts playback from that point.

Re-recording only a specified region (Punch-in/out function)

Punch-in/out is a function that lets you re-record just a specified region of a previously recorded track. The action of switching a currently-playing track to record mode is called "punch-in", and the action of switching back from recording to playback is called "punch-out".

The MRS-1266 provides two ways to do this. You can use the panel keys or a foot switch (sold separately) to punch-in/ out manually ("manual punch-in/out"), or cause punch-in/ out to occur automatically at previously specified points ("auto punch-in/out").

Using manual punch-in/out

This section describes how to perform manual punch-in/out to re-record a region of a previously recorded track, using the panel keys or a foot switch (sold separately).

HINT

If you want to use a foot switch (ZOOM FS01/FS02) for punch-in/out, connect the foot switch to the [FOOT SW] jack on the front panel.

NOTE

With the default settings of the MRS-1266, a foot switch connected to the [FOOT SW] jack is set to control recorder playback/stop. If you want to use the foot switch to punch- in/out, you must first change the foot switch setting (→ p. 153).

1. Repeatedly press the status key of the track on which you want to perform punch-in/out, until the key is lit in red.

2. Raise the fader of this track to a suitable position.

3. While playing the instrument connected to the INPUT jack, use the [INPUT] control and [REC LEVEL] control to adjust the recording level.

During playback, use the faders of the mixer section to adjust the mix balance of your instrument and the playback of the tracks.
