Working with Scenes

Press the [SCENE] key to enter Scene mode. If you have not stored any Scene memory locations yet, press the

[STORE] key and then press the [SCENE] key. This will store a “snapshot” of your mixer settings for this song at the

COUNTER location indicated on the SONG page.

After pressing the [SCENE] key, to enable Scene Memory, select SceneRead:Off in the display using the CURSOR and
[ENTER] keys to set the display to read SceneRead:On.

To store additional scenes, start song playback and change mixer settings, then press the [STORE] key, followed by

pressing the [SCENE] key again. Each time you do this, a new scene will be created and stored in the Scene Memory.

You can also get a visual picture of what each Scene looks like, and edit its parameters, by selecting the “MixView” tab

in the display and using the TRACK faders and PAN knobs to adjust values. The changes you make will be indicated in

the display.

You can reset a Scene’s Fader and Pan settings by moving each fader and pan knob until the display indicates two
“arrows” instead of a single directional arrow.

Selecting Virtual tracks and Editing tracks

Press the [TRACK] key.

Using the CURSOR keys and the DIAL, select which virtual track you will be listening to or recording to. To adjust Virtual

Track settings for tracks 7-12, use the [<-TAB->] keys to access the “Vtr7-12” tab in the display. (For more info on

Virtual tracks refer to the D1200mkII Owner’s Manual page 108)

To use the “EditTrk” function, you must first select a range of the song to be edited by storing an IN, OUT and TO

location (some editing functions also require an END location). To do this, move to the desired song location, and then

press the [STORE] key followed by the [LOCATE] key for each location. Once you’ve set locate points, you can edit the

specific region in the track(s).

To see the list of edit functions, select the “EditTrk” tab, select the “” button next to “CopyTrack” in the display. To

access a function, select the ”radio button” to the left of the function you wish to perform and then select “OK” using the

CURSOR and [ENTER] keys.

To execute the function, select Exec. in the display. For more information on editing tracks, refer to the D1200mkII
Owner’s Manual pages 57-63 & 108-113.
