CLONE TRACK
This copies a track or pair of tracks to another track or pair of tracks. The IN and
OUT points do not have any meaning here.
… There are two values that you can change:
Src. Trk Select an individual track (1 through 8), a pair of tracks (1/2, 3/4, 5/6,
7/8) or the MASTER stereo track.
Dst. Trk This sets the destination track or tracks to which the source track is
cloned. What you can select here depends on what you have selected for the
source track. If you have selected a single track, you can select tracks
1 through
8 here. If you have selected a pair of tracks (for instance, 1/2), you can only
select track pairs here.
If you try to select
the same track as a
destination that you have se-
lected as the source, when you
press the
YES
key, a message will
appear.
Press YES to perform the operation or NO to leave this screen.
Although you cannot mix the inputs to the
STEREO MIX to the
mixed master track, you can add a drum machine (say) to the
mix in the following way:
• Mix down to the mix master track, using the
EFFECT SEND and EFFECT
RETURN
(“Mixdown and mastering” on page 23) to add reverb to your mix.
• Clone the stereo mix to a pair of tracks.
• Disconnect the drum machine from the
STEREO MIX and connect it to the
RETURN jacks. Make sure that it is set up to be synchronized to the DP-01
(“Working with MIDI” on page 35).
• Mix down again with only the two cloned tracks, using the
EFFECT
RETURN control to add and adjust the level of the drum machine. You then
have a mix including the drum machine as well as the effect added to the
main tracks.
CLEAN OUT
This deletes all the material in a track or tracks. The IN and OUT points do not
have any meaning here.
… There is only one value that you can change:
Src. Trk Select an individual track (1 through 8), a pair of tracks (1/2, 3/4, 5/6,
7/8), or all the tracks (1-8).
Press
YES to perform the operation or NO to leave this screen.
Undoing operations
If you have made a mistake on the DP-01, very often you can undo it! This
includes the track editing operations described here, as well as most other com-
mon operations you can perform (including recording).
… Press the UNDO key briefly, to undo the last undoable action.
or
You must have
performed at least
one undoable action after switch-
ing on for the undo function to
work!
… Press and hold the UNDO key for about a second, to show the UNDO/
REDO
screen:
