desired points and set the punch in/out points again.
If there are no problems about punch in/out points, pre-
roll time, and post-roll time perform the rehearsal, as
described below.
Rehearsing punch in/out
You can rehearse before performing punch in/out. In the
rehearsal, the monitor operates the same way as for the
actual recording, but the recording is not performed.
1. When the AUTO PUNCH button is lit and one of the
tracks is in recording standby, press the REHEARSE
button.
The REHEARSE button becomes lit.
2. Press the RECORD (0) button.
Auto punch in/out rehearsal starts.
Playback starts from the pre-roll point. You can •
monitor both the track playback signal and the
input source signal.
When the punch in point is reached, the monitoring
•
changes to input source signal only, and the
RECORD (0) button starts flashing (to indicate this
is a rehearsal).
When the punch out point is reached, the
•
monitoring of both the track playback signal and
input source signal starts, and the RECORD (0)
button becomes unlit.
Playback continues until the post-roll point and
•
stops.
Before starting your rehearsal, you can press the
REPEAT button (so that all three AUTO PUNCH,
REHEARSE, and REPEAT buttons become lit), to
repeat the rehearsal operation until you press the
STOP (8) button.
