Using the optional footswitch
Play
Note:
When you perform a punch-in/out recording, you need to find a blank section of about
1 second for your punch-in and punch-out locations. This is because of the gap between the erase
head and record/playback head. Otherwise you may find that you have accidentally erased
material that was before or after the re-recorded segment.
1)
Connect the input source, set the input select key, and adjust the GAIN control and
channel fader so that the mixer setting is identical to the previous recording.
2)
Plug an optional FC5 footswitch into the PUNCH I/O footswitch connector
Note:
Yamaha supplies an optional footswitch, FC5. Using another manufacturer's
footswitch may cause mis-timing. See your Yamaha dealer for details.
3)
Press the REC SELECT key for the track you want to punch-in.
The REC SELECT - TRACK indicator on the display will flash.
4)
Press the REC/PAUSE key.
Note: You can practice the punch-in at this point with the rehearsal function. Press the
REHE key instead of the REC/PAUSE key.
The indicator above the key lights and the flashing REC SELECT - TRACK indicator
will be illuminated.
5)
Step on the footswitch.
The indicator above the PLAY key lights, the indicator above the REC/PAUSE key
will flash rapidly, and the MT4X starts the tape. Get ready to play the punch-in part.
6)
At the punch-in location, step on the footswitch again.
The indicator above the REC/PAUSE key lights. Play the punch-in part.
7)
