recording-destination track, and press the
[ENTER] key.

The selected input channel and track will be internally
connected.

At this time, the connected [INPUT SEL] key (or the
input channel’s [SEL] key) and the track channel’s
[SEL] key will change to blinking red.

The blinking track channel [SEL] key indicates that
the corresponding track is in record-ready mode.

For example if input channel 1 and track 1 are con-
nected, the top panel keys will be as follows.

The indication in the screen will be as
follows.

If you want to record multiple instruments
or mics simultaneously, assign other input
channels to other tracks in the same way.

If you want to connect a set of eight input
channels and eight tracks in a single opera-
tion, turn the MULTI CONNECTION ON/OFF
button on.

For example if the MULTI CONNECTION ON/OFF
button is on, and you select any one of input channels
1–8 as a recording-source and any one of tracks 1–8 as
a recording-destination, the following popup window
will appear.

Move the cursor to the YES button and press the
[ENTER] key to execute the connection; input chan-
nels 1–8 will be connected to tracks 1–8. Move the
cursor to the NO button and press the [ENTER] key to
connect the selected input channel and track.

• You can also select the record-source input

channel by pressing an [INPUT SEL] key
(or the [SEL] key of an input channel).

• The [INPUT SEL] keys always control input

channels 1–8, regardless of the settings of
the Layer section

• You can also select the record-destina-

tion track by pressing a track channel’s
[SEL] key.

• The same internal connection will be

established even if you perform steps 3
and 4 in the reverse order.

• The fader will automatically be set to 0

dB for input channels that are internally
connected to a track.

• If an input channel is selected as a recording-source, its

assignment to the stereo bus will automatically be turned off.
If you want to monitor the signal you’re recording, you’ll need
to raise the fader of the recording-destination track channel.

• EQ and dynamics settings will be set to a flat state for track

channels corresponding to tracks selected as recording-desti-
nations.

• Input channels and tracks are always connected one-to-one.

• The track numbers of muted tracks will be displayed as

(mute), but you can still record to muted tracks.

• Since 24-bit songs can have a maximum of 12 play tracks (

p. 165), tracks 13–24 are muted and will not play back.

NOTE

• To cancel a connection you established, simply repeat the

same operation you did when establishing the connection.

• To change a recording-destination (track) that you’ve already

connected, move the cursor to the recording-source and
press the [ENTER] key; then move the cursor to a different
track and press the [ENTER] key.

• To change a recording-source (input channel) that you’ve

already connected, move the cursor to the recording-destina-
tion and press the [ENTER] key; then move the cursor to a
different input channel and press the [ENTER] key.

• To cancel all connections, move the cursor to the SAFE but-

ton and press the [ENTER] key.

• If a recording-source input channel and the recording-destina-

tion track are both paired, two adjacent odd-numbered/even-
numbered channels will be assigned to two adjacent odd-
numbered/even-numbered tracks.
