Bouncing tracks

Use this unit’s bounce function to mix already

recorded tracks (1–8) down to one or two

tracks.
Multitrack tape recorders can only bounce

to an open track (in other words, they can

not record to a track that is also a source of

the mix). For example, tracks 1–7 could be

bounced to track 8, but tracks 1–8 could not be

bounced to track 1. This unit, however, does

not have this limitation. You can bounce tracks

1–8 to mix down to tracks 1 and 2 (stereo

bounce), or bounce tracks 1–8 as a mono mix

to track 1 (mono bounce).

NOTE

Inside this unit, a mixdown is made to create

a mix master that is recorded to the desig-

nated tracks.

bounce destinations. (In the illustration above

the drum parts are overwritten by the stereo

you make a mistake (see “Undoing the last

operation (single undo)” on page 50).
