TIP
When using an external effect, connect the output of the external
effect (EFFECT RETURN) to INPUT A to H. By assigning the
connected input to the stereo bus, you can return the effect sound
to the stereo bus. (See "Assigning inputs to a stereo bus" on page

Creating a master file
When you are satisfied with your mix, this unit can create a
stereo master file by recording the mixed down tracks.
Master files created by this unit are saved with their songs.
A master file can be recorded by an external stereo recorder and
can also be converted by the unit into a WAV file and stored with
the same name as the song in the song's folder on the SD card.
CAUTION
Only one master file ("[song name].wav") can be created
in each song. (When mastering, another file besides the
"[song name].wav" master file is created, but it is only
for use by the unit. Do not erase it.)
10 - Mixing Down and Mastering Songs
Setting the start and end points
Before creating a master file, set the start and end points to be
used for the mixed down master file. The range between the
song's IN and OUT points will be recorded as the master file.
Usually, you will probably want to set the beginning of the song
as the IN point and the end of the song as the OUT point.
Press and hold the MARK SET button and press the IN button
where you want to set the IN (start) point of the master file, and
press and hold the MARK SET button and press the OUT button
where you want to set the OUT (end) point.
For more information about how to correct the IN/OUT points,
see "Setting IN/OUT points" on page 44.
