Creating songs (Sequencer mode)
Recording automation events for pan,
EQ, and volume etc. on an audio track
All audio track parameters (Pan, Volume, Send1/2, and
EQ) can be recorded in realtime. In this example, we'll
record Pan and Volume changes on audio track 3.
Go to the P0: Play/REC– Audio Track Mixer page, and use
"Track Select" to select Audio Track 03 as the track to be
recorded. You could use the VALUE controller to operate a
desired parameter, but using the control surface lets you mix
up to eight tracks simultaneously.
Setup
1. Go to the P0: Play/REC– Preference page.
2. In Recording Setup, Recording Setup (Audio Track),
choose the desired recording method.
In this example, we'll choose overdub recording so that
we can record repeated passes, adding more automation
data on each pass.
– Recording Setup –
Overdub: on
– Recording Setup (Audio Track) –
Automation Only: checked
If you record without checking "Automation Only,"
audio events will also be recorded. Note that this will
erase and overwrite the audio events that already exist.
3. Go to the P0: Play/REC– Control Surface page.
4. Press the CONTROL ASSIGN AUDIO switch several
times so that the HDR1–8 LED located at the right of
the switch is lit.
5. In the center of the right edge of the LCD, check
"Link KBD REC Trk to Ctrl Surface."
If you check this and press the MIX SELECT 3 switch,
each knob will control audio track 3, and at the same time
"Track Select" will switch to Audio Track 03.
Press the SEQUENCER START/STOP switch to play
back, and operate the knobs and sliders etc. to rehearse
your mix.
If MIXER KNOB is set to CHANNEL STRIP, knob 1
will control pan, knobs 2–6 will control EQ, and knobs 7
and 8 will control the send levels. Use slider 3 to adjust
the volume of audio track 3.
When you've finished rehearsing, press the
SEQUENCER START/STOP switch to stop.
Press the LOCATE switch.
