6. Make sure that the ABSOLUTE button in the FADER EDIT MODE field is
turned on.
The two buttons of the FADER EDIT MODE field in the screen are used to select
the fader editing method. When the ABSOLUTE button is on, previously-
recorded events will be erased, and new events will be recorded.
Note
Use the RELATIVE button when you wish to make relative changes to the previ-
ously-recorded fader events. For details refer to the Reference Guide "AUTOMIX
screen/Main page."
7. Move the cursor to the on-screen AUTO REC button, and press the
[ENTER] key.
8. Press the top panel [PLAY] key to play back the song.
When song playback is started with the AUTO REC button on, the REC button
will be turned on automatically, and automix will be in record mode. However,
recording will not actually occur, since a recording channel has not yet been
selected.
9. While listening to the song, press [SEL] key 1 (monitor channel 1) at the
point where you wish to punch-in, and begin operating the fader.
Punch-in will begin at the instant you press the [SEL] key. When you operate the
fader, the previously-recorded position of the fader and the position currently
being recorded will both be displayed in the bar graph. The upward or downward
arrow shown beside the bar graph indicates the direction in which you can move
the fader to return to the previously-recorded position.
10. When you are finished operating the fader, press the [SEL] key of the
same channel to punch-out.
Note
If you turn on the RET button in the FADER EDIT OUT field before you begin
punch-in, the faders will automatically return to the previously-recorded positions
as soon as you punch-out. This is convenient when you wish to change the level
only for the punch-in/out area. You can use the knob located at the right of the RET
button to adjust the time over which faders will return to the previously-recorded
positions. For details refer to the Reference Guide "AUTOMIX screen/Main page."
