] [
6. Rotate the TIME/VALUE dial to change the setting.
7. Press [EXIT] several times to return to the top screen.
In addition to using CURSOR [
selected, you can also select a track directly with the REC
TRACK buttons. When doing so, you can simultaneously
press a pair of REC TRACK buttons (i.e., tracks 1 and 2, 3
and 4, 5 and 6, or 7 and 8) to adjust the settings of the two
selected tracks at the same time.
This is convenient when you wish to make the same EQ
settings for each channel of a stereo track. When this is
done, changing the EQ settings will cause all EQ
parameters (values) of the two tracks to match.
Furthermore, since tracks 9/10 are linked as a stereo pair,
settings for both tracks are changed simultaneously. You
cannot make settings to either track individually.

Mixdown

After you have played back and listened to your song
repeatedly, and have arrived at pan, equalizer, loop effect
and track volume settings that you like, you can perform the
mixdown.
You can mix down to external recording devices as well as
do mixdowns to the BR-1180/1180CD's tracks.
* Not only can you mix down the audio tracks during
mixdowns, you can also mix the Rhythm Guide performances
along with the tracks. To mix down a Rhythm Guide
performance, press RHYTHM/LOOP [AUTO/ON/OFF] one
or more times until the indicator is lit or flashing, adjust the
RHYTHM/LOOP fader to attain the appropriate volume level,
then proceed with the mixdown.

1. Connect the recording device to the LINE OUT jack
and place it into its recording standby state.

(10) Turning off the power

To turn off the power, use the procedure described in
"Turning off the power" (p. 30).
You must use the POWER switch to turn off the power of the
BR-1180/1180CD. The recorded data and mixer settings are not
immediately saved when the operation is performed, but are
saved to internal memory when you save the song or turn off
the power. This means that if you turn off the power by
unplugging the AC adaptor, rather than using the POWER
switch, the recorded data and mixer settings will be lost.
Before disconnecting the AC adaptor from the outlet,
make sure that the power of the BR-1180/1180CD is
actually off (i.e., that the display screen is dark). Never
disconnect the AC adaptor while data is being saved,
since this will cause the recorded data or editing contents
(mixer settings, effect patch data or the like) to be lost.
