Recording in two formats
(DUAL FORMAT)
The DR-22WL can transfer files to a smart phone via Wi-Fi. (See
"Connect the DR-22WL and smart phone via Wi-Fi" on page
35.)
WAV/BWF delivers a high-quality sound but unfit to transfer
via Wi-Fi due to its large file size. The DR-22WL can make
simultaneous recordings in WAV/BWF format and MP3 format
(smaller file size) for Wi-Fi transfer.

Mixing the input sound to the
playback for recording (overdubbing)
The DR-22WL can mix the input sound while playing the
recorded track to create a new file.
The unit offers two overdubbing modes.
8 OVERDUB
This mode mixes the input sound to the playback file.
Users can monitor with a headphone and overdubbing the
sounds.
8 AIRDUB
This mode records group singing or musical performance with
the accompaniment music playback (similar to karaoke).
Since only the playback sound is output from the output jacks in
this mode, you can use it to play along with an already recorded
performance output from a connected external monitoring
system, for example, and record this new performance together
with the sound playing back.
NOTE
• The recording format of the playback file is used when in
an overdubbing mode (FORMAT, SAMPLE, TYPE). When the
playback file format is mono, the inputs will also be treated
as mono (left and right). When the playback file format is
stereo, the inputs will also be treated as stereo. Open the
FILE INFO screen if you want to check the playback file
format. (See "File information screen (FILE INFO)" on page
41.)
• Speaker will not emit sound in overdubbing mode.
• Pause will not work in overdubbing mode (RECORD button
is disabled).
• The overdubbed file is created in playback format
regardless of the recording format setting.
• When in an overdubbing mode, the self-timer,
pre-recording, automatic recording and dual format
recording functions cannot be used.
