TR 8- 1

On this screen, also V-takes that are not currently selected for tracks 1 - 8 can be selected for loading.

When track 8 is selected, turning the dial further to the right brings up the following screen.

ImprtSrc

TR1/2

When this screen is shown, turning the dial to the right selects tracks in odd-numbered/even-numbered pairs (1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8) or the master track. In this case, the currently selected V-take for the two tracks or the master track becomes the loading target. Use the dial and the cursor up/ down keys to select the track/V-take.

The display changes to “IMPORT START”. In this condition, you can specify the start point for the data range to be imported.
