Advanced techniques on the AW2816
This section introduces more advanced recording and
mixing techniques that you will find useful.
Manually re-recording only a spe-
cific area (Manual Punch-in/out)
If you make a mistake while recording a performance,
you can re-record just the portion of the track that
contains the mistake. This section will explain how to
use the transport keys or a foot switch (Yamaha FC-5)
to manually punch-in/out.
1
Locate the song to a point ahead of where
you will punch-in.
Tip!
• If you want to use a foot switch (Yamaha FC-5) to
perform manual punch-in/out, connect the foot
switch to the rear panel FOOT SW jack before you
continue.
• For details on Locate operations, refer to "Chapter
6. Transport/Locate operations."

Press the [REC TRACK SELECT] key for the
track that you want to record.
The [REC TRACK SELECT] key will blink, and it
will be in record-ready mode.

Press the [TRACK] key
In the INPUT MONITOR area, make sure that the
AUTO button is turned on. If it is not turned on,
move the cursor to the AUTO button and press
the [ENTER] key.
Tip!
When using punch-in/out, select AUTO (auto input)
as the input monitor mode. This mode lets you moni-
tor the track playback of record-ready tracks before
you punch-in, and the input source after you punch-
in.
