This section introduces more advanced recording and
mixing techniques that you will find useful.
Manually re-recording only a spe-
cific area (Manual Punch-in/out)
If you make a mistake while recording a performance,
you can re-record just the portion of the track that
contains the mistake. This section will explain how to
use the transport keys or a foot switch (Yamaha FC-5)
to manually punch-in/out.
1
Locate the song to a point ahead of where
you will punch-in.
Tip!
• If you want to use a foot switch (Yamaha FC-5) to
perform manual punch-in/out, connect the foot
switch to the rear panel FOOT SW jack before you
continue.
• For details on Locate operations, refer to “Chapter
6. Transport/Locate operations.”
2
Press the [REC TRACK SELECT] key for the
track that you want to record.
The [REC TRACK SELECT] key will blink, and it
will be in record-ready mode.
3
Press the [TRACK] key → [F1] key.
In the INPUT MONITOR area, make sure that the
AUTO button is turned on. If it is not turned on,
move the cursor to the AUTO button and press
the [ENTER] key.
Tip!
When using punch-in/out, select AUTO (auto input)
as the input monitor mode. This mode lets you moni-
tor the track playback of record-ready tracks before
you punch-in, and the input source after you punch-
in.
4
Press the PLAY [ ] key. (Alternatively,
press the foot switch.)
Song playback will begin.
Operation may not be correct if you use a foot switch
other than the Yamaha FC-5.

At the location that you want to punch-in,
press the REC [ ] key + PLAY [ ] key (or
press the foot switch).
The REC [ ] key will light, and recording will
begin on the track you selected in step 2.

At the location that you want to punch-
out, press the PLAY [ ] key (or press the
foot switch).
The REC [ ] key will go dark, and you will
return to normal playback mode.
7
To stop the song, press the STOP [ ] key
(or press the foot switch).
The song will stop.
8
To listen to the recorded result, locate to
the location of step 1, and press the PLAY
[ ] key.
Tip!
If you made a mistake during recording, press the
[UNDO] key while stopped to automatically cancel
the previous recording operation.
