overdubbing cannot be executed by using
the built-in speaker.

Press the [<] or [>] button to
adjust the playback level.

again to display the previous
screen.

Press the [●] (REC) button.
Overdubbing starts.

After recording is complete
and the PR7 plays the original
file to the end, press the [■]
(Stop) button.
