Recording procedure

Recording Setup
These parameters specify how audio tracks will be recorded.
For details on each recording method, refer to the examples
for MIDI tracks. (See "Recording setup" on page 84)
However, this differs from MIDI track recording as follows.
Overwrite
When recording for the first time, you will normally select
this method.
To begin recording, press the SEQUENCER REC/ WRITE
switch and then the SEQUENCER START/ STOP switch.
To stop recording, press the SEQUENCER START/STOP
switch once again.
Audio Track Audio Events: Only the measures you
recorded will be overwritten; the data in subsequent
measures will remain unchanged.
Audio Track Automation Events: All data following the
measure at which you begin recording will be erased.
Overdub
Select this method when you wish to add Audio Track
Automation Event data to a previously-recorded track.
To begin recording, press the SEQUENCER REC/WRITE
switch and then the SEQUENCER START/STOP switch. To
stop recording, press the SEQUENCER START/STOP
switch once again.
Audio Track Audio Events: As with Overwrite, only the
measures you recorded will be overwritten; the data in
subsequent measures will remain unchanged.
Audio Track Automation Events: The previously-recorded
data will remain, and the newly-recorded data will be added
to it.
Manual Punch In
Select this method when you wish to use the SEQUENCER
REC/WRITE switch or a foot switch to re-record selected
portions of a previously-recorded track.

Auto Punch In
Select this method when you wish to automatically re-record
selected portions of a previously-recorded track.
For both Manual Punch In and Auto Punch In, recording will
occur as follows.
Audio Track Audio Events, Audio Track Automation
Events: Only the measures you recorded will be
overwritten; the data in subsequent measures will remain
unchanged.
Loop All Tracks
Choose this method if you want to repeatedly record track
automation events over a specified region of measures,
adding data at each pass. Only automation events can be
recorded. You can use "Remove Data" to remove audio track
automation events.
Audio events cannot be recorded. This means that if you set
"Track Select" to Audio Track, and turn "Automation Only"
Off, you will be unable to start recording.
Recording Setup (Audio Track)
HDR Bit Depth
You can choose to record either 16-bit or 24-bit data. 24-bit
yields higher fidelity, but uses more space on disk.
Automation Only
Normally you will record with this unchecked. Both audio
track automation events and audio events will be recorded.
If this is checked, only audio track automation events will be
recorded. Use this setting if you want to record automation
after recording.
Auto Input
This parameter controls monitoring during recording. It
automatically switches all record-enabled tracks between
monitoring the record input and the track playback,
according to whether or not recording is active.
This lets you listen to audio you've already recorded when
punching in, and also means that you don't have to disable
track record-enables in order to listen to playback.
This applies only to record-enabled tracks. If Multi REC is
off, this is the REC Track (as selected in the Track Select
menu). If Multi REC is on, this means to all tracks whose
Play/Rec/Mute button is set to Rec.
Normally, Auto Input should be enabled (checked). When
enabled, record enabled tracks will be monitored as follows:
• When stopped, the monitor carries the input signal.
• When playing but not recording, the monitor carries the
track playback.
• When recording, the monitor carries the input signal.
For audio tracks which are not record-enabled, you'll always
be monitoring the track playback.
