Perform the required mix operations.

The specified mix parameters will be recorded for the
specified channel(s).

The parameters specified for recording in step 4 are
actually recorded as follows.

● CH ON/FADER

Operate the channel [ON] key or fader.

● AUX/EFFECT SEND ON

Call the AUX or EFFECT screen, move the cursor to
the channel for which AUX or effect send is to be
turned on or off, and press the [ENTER] key.

● AUX/EFFECT SEND

Call the AUX or EFFECT screen and rotate the appro-
priate Selected Channel knob, 1–4. Alternatively you
can move the cursor to the appropriate on-screen knob
and use the [DATA/JOG] dial or [INC]/[DEC] keys to
adjust the send level.

● EQ

Recall the PAN/EQ screen and use the [LOW], [LO-
MID], [HI-MID], or [HIGH] key to band to be
adjusted, then use Selected Channel knobs 2–4 to
adjust the selected band as required. Alternatively you
can move the cursor to the appropriate knobs in the
PAN/EQ screen EQ/Att. page and use the [DATA/
JOG] dial or [INC]/[DEC] keys to adjust the EQ. EQ
ON/OFF switching is also recorded.

● PAN

Recall the PAN/EQ screen and rotate Selected Chan-
nel knob 1. Alternatively you can move the cursor to
the on-screen knobs and use the [DATA/JOG] dial or
[INC]/[DEC] keys to adjust the PAN.

● Scene/Library

Scene, channel, EQ, gate, compressor, and effect set-
ups are recalled via the corresponding library pages.

When all required mix operations have
been recorded, press the top-panel STOP
[

■] key to stop the song.

The [AUTOMIX] key will go out, the MODE field
REC button will be turned off, and the Automix record
standby mode will be disengaged. At the same time a
popup window asking you to confirm whether you
want to update the recorded Automix data will appear.

To confirm and update the recorded data
move the cursor to the OK button and press
the [ENTER] key.

The recorded Automix data will be updated. You can
abort this operation and revert to the previously
recorded Automix data by moving the cursor to the
CANCEL button rather than the OK button and press-
ing the [ENTER] key.

• Effect parameter operations can not be recorded to Automix.

NOTE

• ATT. knob operation and EQ type selections are not recorded

to Automix.

NOTE

• When making an Automix recording for multiple channels,

only the last channel selected can be operated via the
Selected Channel controls.

• During Automix recording the [INPUT SEL], [SEL], and [STE-

REO SEL] keys are used to punch the corresponding chan-
nels in or out. The safest way to switch the selected channel
during Automix recording is to move the cursor to the appro-
priate location in the PAN/EQ, EFFECT, or AUX screen.

NOTE

• Automix recording can be stopped without stopping song

playback by moving the cursor to the STOP button in the
AUTOMIX screen Automix page and pressing the [ENTER]
key (or by pressing the [F2] key while holding the [SHIFT]
key).

• If you turn on the AUTOREC button rather than the REC but-

ton in step 5, the Automix record standby mode will remain
engaged even when song playback is stopped. This method
is best when you want to make repeated passes at an Auto-
mix recording.

HINT

• After confirming and updating the recorded Automix data you

can still undo the operation and revert to the previously
recorded Automix data by moving the cursor to the UNDO
button in the COMMAND field and pressing the [ENTER] key.
Please note that the top-panel [UNDO] key cannot be used to
undo Automix recordings.

• The current Automix data can be stored to the Automix library

or a preciously stored Automix recording can be recalled from
the library. Refer to “Automix Library Operation” on page 190
for details.
