Punch-In/Out Recording - Yamaha MT100II Operation Manual

PUNCH-IN/OUT RECORDING

Punch-in/out recording makes it possible to re-record a short segment of an otherwise perfect track in order to correct a mistake or
"brush up" an important passage. You "punch-in" at the point where you begin recording the new segment, and "punch-out" at the
end of the new segment so that the previously-recorded material is not erased.
Punch-in/out Using the REC SELECT Switches
1. With all REC SELECT switches set to OFF, start the re-
corder running — a few measures before the section to be
re-recorded begins — in the record-ready mode by press-
ing the REC button and then the PLAY button with all track
REC SELECT switches set to OFF. The red REC LED will
flash indicating that the transport is in the record-ready
mode. The MONITOR SELECT switch should be set to
MONITOR so you can hear all the tracks.
2. At a convenient break in the track switch the track to be
corrected to the record mode (punch-in by switching the
REC SELECT switch for that track to the appropriate rec-
ord position) and start playing the new material to be re-
corded. The REC LED will light continuously as soon as
the REC SELECT switch is set to a record position.
3. At the end of the re-recorded segment switch the track
back to the play mode (punch-out by switching the REC
SELECT switch for that track to OFF). The red REC LED
will begin to flash.
Footswitch Punch-in/out
1. Plug a YAMAHA FS-1 (optional) footswitch into the
MT100II PUNCH I/O jack.
2. Set the REC SELECT switch for the track to be punched-in
to the appropriate record position, and press the REC but-
ton to activate the rec/pause mode. The red REC LED
should flash instead of lighting continuously. If the red REC
LED lights continuously, press the footswitch once so that it
flashes. If the LED lights continuously, press the footswitch
once so that it flashes.
WHEN USING A FOOTSWITCH, MAKE SURE
CAUTION:
THE RED REC LED LIGHT IS FLASHING, NOT
STEADY BEFORE PUTTING THE TRANSPORT IN
RECORD. THIS WILL PREVENT ACCIDENTAL
ERASURE OF EXISTING MATERIAL. DO NOT
PRESS REC AND PLAY.
3. Press the PLAY button to start the transport running in the
record-ready mode.
4. Press the footswitch to punch-in. The red REC LED will
light continuously.
5. Press the footswitch a second time to punch-out. The red
REC LED will begin to flash.
