to begin (In), and the punch-out measure at which record-
ing is to end (Out). Use the
between these two display screens, and the associated [-]
and [+] buttons to specify the required measure numbers.
Notes:
It's generally convenient to set the "Play St" measure in
the Punch mode to just a few measures before the punch-in
point. This allows you to get the feel of the music and pre-
pare to start playing at the punch-in point. You can even play
along with the material prior to the actual punch-in point so
you'll flow naturally into the punch-in recording range.
A footswitch (the supplied FC5 footswitch can be used)
plugged into the rear-panel FOOT SW jack can also be used
to punch-in and punch-out when the footswitch "Punch In"
function is selected via the "FOOT SWITCH SELECT"
function described on page 37. With the sequencer running
in the Punch Record mode, press the footswitch at the point
you want to begin recording (i.e. to "punch in"), and again to
stop recording (punch out).
Please note that the punch-in record function can only be
used on tracks that already contain recorded material.

Vertical bar-graphs to the right of each track number on the

Only tracks that contain data are available for volume
control.
Any recorded volume changes will override these settings.
