Song information

Assigning inputs

When we talk about “assigning” inputs, we are talking
about routing the signals from the two inputs to the tracks.

You can record on up to two tracks at a time. This means
that the same input can be assigned to two tracks at the
same time (but you can’t then use the other input) or the
two inputs can be assigned to different tracks. You can’t
assign both inputs to the same track at the same time.

ASSIGN keys

Eight REC keys

1. Press and hold the

ASSIGN

key corresponding

to the input signal you are assigning (

T I P

Press and hold SHIFT and either of the ASSIGN keys
(A or B) to turn the inputs on or off as shown by the
indicator. You may want to turn off unused inputs to
reduce noise.

2. While holding down the

ASSIGN

key, press the

REC

key of the track to which you are assigning the

input. The

REC

key flashes rapidly.

If you want to assign the input to another track, you must
first clear the current assignment (see below), and then
re-assign the input.

Note that the

REC

key of the first track to which you

assigned the input flashes when you hold down the

ASSIGN

key.

Clearing an assignment

Hold down the

ASSIGN

key to check current assignments,

then while holding the

ASSIGN

key, clear current assign-

ments by pressing a flashing

REC

key (which then stops

flashing).
