Creating a new song

Quick Start

Here we explain how to select the audio source
(input) that you want to record.
As an example, we’ll explain how to connect your
electric guitar and input its sound.

fig.QS-SONG-SEL.eps

* Before you select an input source, read “Connecting

other equipment” (p. 22) and connect your equipment
before you continue.

1.

Press [INPUT].

2.

Press [TR1] several times.

Make sure that the indication for the selected
source has changed from “gtr” to “GTR”.

fig.Disp-Input-sens.eps

3.

Use CURSOR [

][

] to move the

cursor to Sns (sensitivity), and use
VALUE [-][+] to adjust the setting.

Adjust the sensitivity for the source you
want to record.
For best results, adjust the sensitivity as high
as possible without allowing the “OVER”
indication to appear in the screen when the
loudest sounds are produced by the input
source. If the OVER indicator lights, reduce
the Sns value.

4.

Use the INPUT LEVEL dial to adjust
the input level.

For more about adjusting the level, refer to
“Adjusting the recording level” (p. 39).

5.

Use the VOLUME dial to adjust the
listening volume.

Source

Range of the Sns Parameter

GTR

-12–+8

MIC

-16–+8

LIN

-6–+8

EXT

-15–+9

The Sns parameter is remembered
independently for each input source.

• If you are recording an electric acoustic

guitar using a shielded connection, use the
GUITAR IN jack.

• When connection cables with resistors are

used, the volume level of equipment
connected to the GUITAR IN or LINE IN/MIC
may be low. If this happens, use connection
cables that do not contain resistors, such as
those from the Roland PCS series.
