Chapter 4: Punch In/Out
Punch In/Out is a function that enables you to re-record only a specified part of the already recorded track(s). This
function is useful when you wish to correct mistakes in a recorded performance or extend the recording. This
chapter describes various uses of the Punch In/Out function.
Manual Punch In/Out
Manual Punch In/Out is to perform the punch in/out operation manually. You may use the transport buttons on the
DPS12 or a connected foot switch to use this function.
Punch In/Out operation using the transport buttons
The [ ] key and the [REC] key are used in this Punch in/out operation.
1. Locate a position a little before the punch in point.
2. Use the [RECORD SELECT] key to select a recording track.
The selected track enters record ready mode.
3. Press the [ ] button.
The playback starts, and the [ ] button’s LED lights up. You can monitor the recorder’s playback (previously-
recorded sound) through the record-ready track.
4. When the punch in point is reached, press the [REC] button while holding down the [ ] button.
The [REC] button’s LED lights up, and the selected track starts recording. The monitoring signal through the
recording track changes to that of the input source (currently recording performance).

If the REHEARSAL parameter on the Control Panel has been turned on, the DPS12 enters
“Rehearsal mode” in which you can practice the punch in operation before you record a real punch in
take. Refer to page 51 for more information.
5. When the punch out point is reached, press the [ ] button.
The recording is cancelled and the DPS12 resumes playback.
