Recording an additional performance while listening to an existing performance 
 
Overdubbing
 
 
 
The tracks for which the REC TRACK button is lit in green 
(or alternately in orange and green) are tracks that already 
have data recorded on them.
The process of listening to a previously recorded 
performance while you record additional material on 
another track is called “overdubbing.” By recording the 
bass, guitar, and vocals on different tracks, you can then 
adjust the volumes of each instrument with respect to one 
another, change the left-right sound balance, exchange data, 
and perform other operations.

Press one of REC TRACK [1]–[7/8] to select the track

Press [REC].
 
[REC] flashes in red and the BR-600 enters the 
recording standby state.
 
4
 
Press [PLAY].
 
The [REC] and REC TRACK button indicators change 
from flashing in red to being continually lit and 
recording begins. [PLAY] lights up.
Only what you are currently playing is recorded to the 
new track. The music that is being played back is not 
recorded.
 
* If you use the REC LEVEL dial to turn down the volume of 
the input source during recording, the sound will be 
recorded in the audio track at a low volume, so that noise 
will be more apparent when you raise the volume of the 
audio track for playback.
If you want to lower the sound of the input source that you 
are monitoring, lower the volume with the MASTER fader. 
To change the volume of the music being played back, use the 
TRACK fader for the respective tracks.

• Note that recording sounds to a track that already 
contains recorded material erases the previous 
recording.
• You cannot play back sounds recorded for less 
than one second.
   Some tips for overdubbing
When you record new material while listening to a 
recorded performance, your playing may tend to be 
buried in the existing performances, making it difficult 
for you to play. In this case, you can slightly lower the 
faders of the playback tracks, or pan the playback 
tracks to left (or right) and the sound you are playing 
to right (or left) to make it easier to hear yourself.
