Introducing the MRS-1266
The MRS-1266 is internally divided into the following five
sections.
● Recorder section
Records and plays back audio.
● Rhythm section
Uses internal drum and bass sound sources to play rhythms.
● Mixer section
Mixes the signals from the recorder section and rhythm
section, for output via the stereo output jacks and for
mixdown on dedicated master tracks.
● Effect section
Processes input signals or signals of the mixer section. The
MRS-1266 has two types of effects: an insert effect that is
inserted in a specific signal path, and a send/return effect that
uses the send/return loop of the mixer section.
● CD-R/RW drive section
Lets you burn an audio CD using the contents of the master
tracks, or read audio material from CDs and CD-ROMs.
Now let's take a closer look at each section.
Recorder section
The recorder section of the MRS-1266 has ten tracks: eight
mono tracks (tracks 1 - 8) and one stereo track (tracks 9/10).
(A "track" is a separate section for recording audio data.) Up
to two tracks can be recorded simultaneously and up to ten
tracks can be played back simultaneously.
Each of the tracks has ten switchable virtual tracks (called
"V-takes"). In each track, one V-take can be selected for
