Limitations when recording a Song
• DSP effects can be recorded only to Tracks 1 and
A.
• The DSP type and target cannot be changed
while recording.
• When recording to an existing User Song, if the
target to which the DSP effects are applied differs
from the recording tracks, DSP related setting
data (DSP target, type, parameter A/B) will not be
recorded or overwritten.
• The DSP effects may not be applied as expected
when a User Song is being played back. This is
because the DSP effects are affected by the data
recorded to the User Song.
