Store IN and OUT points, and use the Loop Playback function as you
audition new insert effects for Track 3 (lead guitar):

19. Press

the

SONG key, then press to highlight each time position on the “Counter”, and rotate the DIAL

so that the Counter reads: “001:54:159”.

20. Press

the

STORE key, then press the IN/LOC1 key, to set this new IN point.

21. Press to highlight the “Counter” time positions again, and set to read “002:29:546”.

22. Press

the

STORE key, then press the OUT/LOC2 key, to set this new OUT point.

Set Loop Playback:

23. Press

the

LOOP key, and note that your new IN/OUT points are indicated in the display.

24. Press

the

“Loop:Off” button in the display, so that it reads “Loop:On”.

Play-enable all tracks, and assign a new insert effect to Track 3:

25. Press

the

PLAY key, and make sure that the remaining TRACK STATUS keys are lit green (Play

status).

26. Press

the

INSERT EFFECT key.

Loop Playback will continue as you work with the track:

27. Press

the

“InsEff2” tab in the display, then slowly rotate the DIAL to select and audition new Insert

effects for Track 3.

28. Once you’ve selected an effect you like, try working with the effect parameters: Press the “Effect”

button to the right of the effect “number” selected, then press the desired effect “icons” in the display,
and make edits to the effect.

29. When you’re satisfied with the edits, press the “OK” button 2x to return to the main Insert effect page.

Here, you can press to “toggle” the “Bypass” button to “mute” the newly-assigned effect from the
original audio track (which was originally recorded with another Insert effect assigned).

30. Press

the

STOP key, then press the LOOP key. Press the “Loop:On” button in the display, so that it

reads “Loop:Off”.

Tip:

You can use the Loop playback/record function in conjunction with the Auto-punch recording
mode. This method lets you record repeated takes over the same section, and then use the Undo
function to select the best take! For more information, see the D1600 Owner’s Manual, page 31.

Work with the Master and Final effects:

Two Master effect processors can be used simultaneously, with individual send levels for each channel. The
Master effects are used for overall processing of the mix, and there are 32 Preset programs, plus 32 user
programs available.

Note: The Master and Final effects are not “printed” to the hard disk when used in a

song, unlike Insert effects that have been assigned on input. The only time they are actually recording is in
mastering to an external recorder via the master outputs, or when using the bounce recording functions,
covered later in this guide.
