the MIDI that you wish to play back.
3. In your sequencer software, select Roland SC-D70 Wave as the port for the
audio that you wish to play.
4. As desired, set your sequencer software to mute any tracks that you do not
wish to play back.

track(s) to be recorded.
6. In your sequencer software, select the track(s) that you wish to record.

8. Adjust the recording level as described in Adjusting the recording level

What is mixdown?
Mixdown is the process by which vocals, guitar, and backing that were recorded on
separate tracks are combined into a single stream of audio data. During the
mixdown, you can adjust the volume and pan (left/right balance) of each track, and
record the resulting audio data on unused tracks.
The included CD-ROM
contains demo songs that
are examples of sequence
data with MIDI data and
audio data.
If the MIDI data exceeds 16
parts, set the other ports to
Roland SC-D70 PART B.
If you are unable to select
Roland SC-D70 Wave as
the port for the recording
track(s), the SC-D70 has not
een specified correctly as
an audio device for the
sequencer software. For
details on how to make
audio device settings, refer
to the manual of your
sequencer software.
