Putting multiple tracks together—Bouncing

Although the BR-532 allows the simultaneous playback of

four tracks, when you run out of tracks, the BR-532 also lets

you copy the recordings of multiple tracks together onto one

track (V-Track). This is called “bouncing” (also known as

bounce recording or ping-pong recording). By combining

multiple tracks in this way, you can free up other tracks in

order to record additional performances.

* In the bounce mode, while playing back all four tracks, you can

record the music bounced to a V-Track.

The explanation below uses an example of mixing the

monaural recording on tracks 1 and 2 and the stereo

recording on tracks 3 and 4, and bouncing them to V-Track 2

of tracks 3 and 4.

1. Set the pan for tracks 1 and 2 to the locations you

desire, set the pan for track 3 all the way to the left

(L50), and the pan for track 4 all the way to the right

(R50).

“Setting the left-right positioning (pan) of the sound” (p.

42)

2. Play back the song and adjust the volumes for the four

tracks using the REC TRACK faders.

The overall volume is adjusted by the MASTER fader. At

this time, raise the volume as high as possible without

allowing the sound to distort.

Lower the faders for the tracks that you do not want to

mix.

* You can apply insert effects (p. 31) or loop effects (p. 42) to the

recording when performing bounce recording.

3. Press [STOP].

4. Press BOUNCE [ON/OFF] until both the TRACK L and

R indicators blink.

* Each time BOUNCE [ON/OFF] is pressed, the setting changes

from STEREO ➔ MONO ➔ OFF and so on.

The track selection screen appears for stereo recording.

■ If you press BOUNCE [ON/OFF] so just TRACK L

lights, the track selection screen appears for

monaural recording.

fig.R03-02

■ The [INPUT SELECT] indicator goes out, and the

input source is automatically muted. This prevents

the input source from being mixed in and recorded

during bounce recording.

* If you wish to mix an input source as part of the bounce

recording, press [INPUT SELECT] to select the desired input

source.At this time, you can apply loop effects (p. 42) to the

sound of the input source.

5. Press REC TRACK to select the track, and turn the

TIME/VALUE dial to select the V-Track to which to

record.

For this example, you would select “3-V2” and “4-V2.”

6. If you want to mix in the sound of the rhythm guide as

well, increase the RHYTHM GUIDE fader.

If you do not want to record the rhythm guide, lower the

fader.

7. After returning to the beginning of the song, press

[REC] and then [PLAY] to start the bounce recording.

[REC], [PLAY], [REC TRACK], and BOUNCE [ON/OFF]

light up.

8. When you are finished recording, press [STOP].

The bounce mode is exited.

* During automatic updating, “Keep Power On!” appears in the

upper line of the display, while the lower line shows what is

being processed.

9. Press [PLAY] to check the sound bounced to tracks 3

and 4.

The pan for tracks 3 and 4, where the music was

bounced, is set all the way to the left and right

respectively.

In order to prepare for the next recording, when the

bounce mode is exited, the tracks (1 and 2) other than

those that were bounced to (3 and 4) are automatically

switched to the V-Tracks that are empty.

If you want to save the settings in the currently selected

song, hold down [STOP], and press [REC].
