• "1-6 > 7/8" mode (see page 70)
In the "1-6 > 7/8" mode, tracks 1 through
6 are played back, mixed down to stereo,
and bounced to tracks 7/8.
In this mode, you can apply a reverb (or
delay) to tracks 1 through 4, as well as the
mastering effect to the mixed signals.
From headphones (or monitor speakers),
you can hear the signals bounced to tracks
7/8 (i.e. mixed signals).
• "1-4 > 5/6" mode (see page 68)
In the "1-4 > 5/6" mode, tracks 1 through
4 are played back, mixed down to stereo,
and bounced to tracks 5/6.
You can apply a reverb (or delay) to tracks
1 through 4, as well as the mastering effect
to the mixed signals.

• "1-8 > NEW SONG" mode (see page 72)
In the "1-8 > NEW SONG" mode, tracks 1
through 8 are played back, mixed down to
stereo, and bounced to tracks 7/8 of a new
song which is automatically created. So this
bouncing mode allows you to internally
record a stereo master without the need of
an external master recorder.
In this mode, you can apply a reverb (or
delay) to tracks 1 through 4, as well as the
mastering effect to the mixed signals.
From headphones (or monitor speakers),
