About recording modes
Ordinary recording
In addition to ordinary recording of the input signal,
with this unit, you can mix and record the input sound
with an audio le that is playing back in overdubbing.
Overdubbing OFF
Ordinary recording of the input signal occurs and a
new le is automatically created.
Overdubbing ON
When overdubbing is ON, you can play an audio le
saved on the SD card and mix in and record a new
sound. For example, you can sing along to a karaoke
track or play an instrument over a backing track.
Even when overdubbing a new le is created
automatically. The audio le that is played back
is not overwritten.
TIP
By recording repeatedly in OVERDUB mode, you can
use the unit as a simple multitrack recorder to overdub
multiple parts.
