Chapter 3: Recording Applications
Use Auto-Punch For Punch In/Out
There are occasions when you want to punch in and out at very specific time locations. For example,
maybe you need to change a guitar solo that is exactly 8 measures long and you are playing the guitar.
First you will choose which track to punch into, then you can select the exact location for the punch in and
the punch out, then you will rewind to a location before the punch in point and begin playing the song.
The VS-880EX will not actually enter the record mode until the specified location and it will exit the record
mode at the specified punch out location. You can then rewind the song, place the record ready track into
play mode, and play back the newly recorded solo.

ACTION: Use Auto-Punch For Punch In/Out
1. Find the punch in location in your song and store it in the LOC 1 locator point by pressing
[LOC] 1 (the LED will come on).
If LOC 1 position already contained a previous location (LED was on), you
can erase the old location by holding the [CLEAR] button and pressing the
[LOC] 1 button. Then, proceed with step 1.
2. Find the punch out location and store it in LOC 2 by pressing [LOC 2].
3. Press [LOCATOR] (under EDIT CONDITION-just under the LCD screen) repeatedly until
“LOC APin” is displayed.
Perform steps 4, 5, and 6 without releasing the [AUTOPUNCH] button.
4. Press and HOLD the [AUTOPUNCH] button.
5. Press the [LOC] 1 button where the punch in location is stored.
6. Press the [LOC] 2 button where the punch out location is stored.
7. Release the [AUTOPUNCH] button.
8. Press [AUTOPUNCH] so it is lit.
9. Press the [STATUS] button for the track you wish to record on until it is flashing red.
10. Reset your song to some point before the punch in location. Then, press [REC] followed by
[PLAY]. The [REC] button will flash until you reach the punch in location, then it will light
red indicating that you are in record mode.
11. Press [STOP] when you are finished.
ALTERNATE METHOD:
1. Alternatively, you can enter the AUTOPUNCH in and out locations manually while viewing
their respective screen displays by using the TIME/VALUE dial or NUMERICS buttons (for
more information on Numerics, see Owner’s Manual page 153).
