6. Use [CURSOR] and the TIME/VALUE dial to set the
start and end time positions of the portion of audio to
be used as the Loop Phrase.
fig.20-092d
Pressing [F1] (DISP) at this time will allow you select
how the positions will be specified (i.e., by measure,
time, or marker).
The following parameters should now be set.
START (Start point):
Use this parameter to specify the start position within
the source track.
END (End point):
Use this parameter to specify the end position within the
source track.
If time values are used to specify the above points and
you then switch the specification method to measures or
markers, a plus (+) character may be displayed to warn
that indicated positions and actual positions are not the
same. If you want to specify points using measures or
markers, this discrepancy can be eliminated by using the
TIME/VALUE dial to make settings in each of the
relevant screens.
If you want to set the Loop Phrase as extending from the
start to the end of the song, press [F3] (ALL).
7. Press [F3] (GO).
The BR-1200CD will begin creating the Loop Phrase.
When the message "Complete!" appears, it indicates that
the phrase has been successfully created.
Creating Loop Phrases
• If the Loop Phrase selected for creation already
contains data, this will be overwritten by the audio
data from the source track. As it will not be possible
to restore this data, care should be taken to ensure
that important Loop Phrases are not accidentally
overwritten in this way.
• If the current song contains newly recorded audio
data or newly modified settings, the message "Save
Current?" may be displayed during the above
procedure. If you want to store your audio data and
settings, press [ENTER/YES]. If this will not be
necessary, press [EXIT/NO].
If you press [EXIT/NO], a Loop Phrase is created
from the data most recently saved to the imported
source track. If there is no data saved, a silent Loop
Phrase is created.
