Temporarily Adjusting the Playback
Level of a Music CD or CF Card
If you're playing back a music CD or CF card while recording
an additional vocal or instrument "layered" onto it (
32, 34), you may need to adjust the volume of the music CD or
CF card to create the correct balance.
In such cases, you can adjust the playback level of the music
CD or CF card to create the desired balance.
1
Press
for the media (CD or CF)
whose playback level you want to adjust.
2
Turn
to adjust the playback level.
When you turn [DATA], the playback level of the
music CD or CF card is displayed.
• You can adjust the level in a range of -50– +25.
• A setting of "0" is the original playback level.
POINT
POINT
For best results, adjust the level so that the level meter
briefly reaches "-3 dB" when the sound from the music
CD or CF card is mixed with the sound of the mic or
instrument.

When you've finished adjusting the
playback level, press
• Press the button for the media (CF card or CD)
you're playing.
• If you do not operate the [DATA] dial for five
seconds, you will be automatically returned to the
previous readout.
MEMO
• Noise may occur if you adjust the playback level during
playback. This is normal and does not indicate a
malfunction.
• The playback level setting you adjust here is temporary,
and will be cleared when you turn off the power. It will
be returned the original playback level the next time you
turn on the power. If you want to keep the playback
level setting, make settings as described in
"Adjusting the Playback Level of a Music CD/CF Card."
