Auto Punch-In/Out Recording

You can rerecord a certain portion of a previously
recorded track. This is called punch-in/out recording.
With this unit allows for 2 kinds of punch-in/out
recording; auto punch-in/out, where you specify the
section you desire and the unit punches in/out
automatically, and manual punch-in/out, where you
time the performance and punch-in/out manually at
the positions you desire.
With auto punch-in/out recording, only the space
between the in and out points is recordable. Therefore,
you can play normally over the track but only the
specified phrase will be rerecorded. The other parts of
the track remain untouched.
EXAMPLE: Using punch-in/out on track 1.

Setting the section to be punched in/out

Before auto punch-in/out recording you must set the
record start (punch in) and record stop (punch out)
positions. The punch-in/out positions must be set
within the same song. Also, be sure to set the out point
at a higher number than the in point.
