Chapter 7: Advanced Technique for Mixing
Ping-pong recording
A “ping-pong recording” is an operation that enables you to mix multiple tracks and record the mix onto another
track. After ping-pong recording, extra tracks (that were used before) become available for overdubbing other
parts. The DPS16 performs ping-pong recording within the digital domain. The following section explains how to
mix the signals of physical tracks 1–14 into stereo and ping-pong recording to physical track 15 and 16.
1. Press the [MIXER] key.
The DPS16 enters Mixer mode and displays the Control View page.
2. Move the cursor to the Control field and turn the [JOG] wheel to select the “BUS” mix parameter.
“BUS” is a mix parameter that enables you to turn on and off the channel signal routed to the ping-pong bus.
The “ping-pong bus” is a special bus that is independent of Master bus L/R, and it is used to mix INPUT MIX
channel signals or TRACK MIX channel signals into two channels. When you select the BUS parameter in the
Control View page, you can specify whether or not each channel is sent to the ping-pong bus.
3. Set the BUS parameter for TRACK MIX channels 1–14 to on, and set the BUS parameter for other
channels to off.
✐
TIP : [TRACK SELECT]
keys 1–14 enable you to switch this parameter on and off very quickly.
4. Press the [PATCH] key.
The DPS16 enters Quick Patch mode. In this mode, you need to change the patch (connection) so that the
output signal from the ping-pong bus will be sent to track 15 and 16.
