Using the Foot switch
(Manual Punch-In 2)
Use a foot switch to punch in and out. Using Punch-
In/Punch-Out when both performing on an instru-
ment and recording at the same time is difficult. In
such instances, it is convenient to use a foot switch
(such as the DP-2 or the BOSS FS-5U) to do your
switches.

Connect an optional foot switch (such as the DP-2 or
the BOSS FS-5U) to the VS-1680’s FOOT SWITCH jack.

Return to Play condition.
Now, you can switch the setting of the FOOT SWITCH
jack between Punch-In and Punch-Out by the foot
switch. Carry out Manual Punch-In as described in
“Using the Record Button (Manual Punch-In 1” (p. 63).
However, use the foot switch instead of the [REC] but-
ton to perform the operation.
Specifying Beforehand the Location
for Rerecording (Auto Punch-In)
You can automatically punch in and punch
out at previously specified locations. This
function is called Auto Punch-In. This is
convenient when you need to punch in or out at a pre-
cise time. Before you begin recording, set the times for
punch-in/punch-out. There are three ways to set these
times as described below. Use the method appropriate
for your situation.
