Playing back an Automix recording.
1
Call the AUTOMIX screen Automix page by
either pressing the [AUTOMIX] key as many
times as necessary, or by pressing the [F1]
key after pressing the [AUTOMIX] key.
2
Make sure that the ENABLE/DISABLE but-
ton is set to “ENABLE”.
If it is set to “DISABLE” move the cursor to the but-
ton and press the [ENTER] key. The [AUTOMIX] key
will light green.
3
Press the top-panel PLAY [ ] key to start
song playback.
Automix playback will begin along with song play-
back. During this time the MODE field PLAY button
will appear inverted.
4
To stop Automix playback press the top-
panel STOP [
■] key.
Both song playback and Automix playback will stop.
Automix playback will stop automatically if song
playback is continued past the point at which Automix
recording was stopped (song playback will continue).
Punch-In/Out recording is handy if you want to re-record
just a portion of an Automix recording. The procedure will
be described in this section, using re-recording of a track
channel fader move as an example.
1
Locate the song to a point just before you
want to begin re-recording the Automix
data.
2
Call the AUTOMIX screen Automix page by
either pressing the [AUTOMIX] key as many
times as necessary, or by pressing the [F1]
key after pressing the [AUTOMIX] key.
3
Make sure that the MODE field ENABLE/
DISABLE button is set to “ENABLE”.
4
Move the cursor to the OVERWRITE field
and engage the buttons corresponding to
the parameters you want to record.
5
Set the return time as required by moving
the cursor to the RETURN TIME field and
using the [DATA/JOG] dial or [INC]/[DEC].
Return time determines the length of time it will take
for the faders to return to the previously-recorded lev-
els after Automix recording has been punched out. The
RETURN TIME range is OFF, 0.0–30.0 seconds.
● Return Time Operation
Automix Playback
• If playback of a recorded Automix track is started from a point
other than the beginning of the track, the mix at that point will
be recalled (the parameters immediately prior to the point at
which playback was begun will be recalled). This means that
you will hear the correct mix no matter where you start play-
back.
HINT
Punch In and Out of Automix
• If you re-record a previously-recorded parameter to the same
channel, the previously recorded data for that parameter will
be overwritten. If the parameter to be recorded has not
already been recorded in the target track, no data will be over-
written.
