MR-8mkII Owner’s Manual (Track bouncing)

You can bounce tracks 1 through 8 to tracks 7/8 of a new song. A new song is automatically
created when executing track bouncing (

: In the “1-8 > NEW SONG” mode, you cannot bounce

the desired part of a song by using the track bouncing and auto punch in/out functions together

).

Before executing track bouncing, you can rehearse it. While rehearsing track bouncing, you can
control the playback level, panning and reverb (or delay) send setting of each source track, as
well as apply the mastering effect to the mixed L/R signals. We recommend to make rehearsal
thoroughly until you are satisfied with the sound. The following assumes that the song you are
going to execute track bouncing is loaded.

During rehearsal and actual track bouncing,
the level meters on the screen show the fol-
lowing signal levels.

1)

Raise the [MASTER] fader to the "

" position.

Set all the track faders down to the minimum
position.

2)

Press the [PLAY] key to start playback from the
beginning of the song.

3)

While playing back the song, adjust playback
levels of tracks 1 through 8 using the track
faders.

You can also adjust panning for tracks 1
through 4 and apply the reverb or delay to
these tracks, as well as apply the mastering
effect to the mixed sound.

During rehearsal and actual track bouncing,
the track faders and [MASTER] fader control
the following signal levels.

Playback levels of tracks 1 through
8 for bouncing.

4)

After finishing rehearsal, press the [STOP] key
to stop the recorder and locate it to the
beginning of the song.

Do not move the controls and faders after
finishing rehearsal.

By raising the [PHONES VOL] control, you can
hear the bounced signals.

Use the track faders (1 through 8) to control
the track output levels, and use the [MASTER]
fader to adjust the master recording levels of
the bounced signals appropriately while check-
ing meters L/R.

See "Using effects" on page 57 for details about
the delay/reverb and mastering effects.
