•
Auto
and
manual punch-in/out recording
make it
easy to re-record the desired portion of a perfor-
mance.
• The
Trigger Recording function
allows recording to
start automatically in response to an audio input, so
that it’s easy to begin recording even when both
hands are occupied playing an instrument. You can
also use a foot switch to start or stop recording.
• The
Scrub function
lets you listen to the recorded
sound of a track just as if you were manually mov-
ing the reels of an open-reel tape recorder – a great
convenience when you need to find the exact begin-
ning of a phrase.
• The
Locate Point Memory function
(four points for
each song) and
Mark Memory function
(100 points
for each song) allow you to register locations within
a song, making it easy to mark and jump instantly to
transitional points within the song. Names can also
be assigned to marks.
• The
Program Play function
lets you play back multi-
ple songs in the order you specify. These songs can
then be recorded to MD or DAT to create your own
album.
• When recording and editing songs or phrases from a
record or CD, you can use
tap input
to input a
tempo that follows the song. Alternatively, you can
create
tempo maps
, or record MIDI clock messages
from an external device.
• The D1600 can
synchronize
with MIDI Clock, MTC,
or MMC-compatible sequencers or rhythm
machines.
• Standard connectors such as
SCSI
and S/P DIF (dig-
ital interface) are provided, allowing connection to
numerous external devices. The SCSI connector
allows external hard disks, CD-R/RW, or removable
disks to be used to record/play or backup data.
The S/P DIF connectors allow you to record digital
audio from an external digital device such as DAT or
MD, and to directly output the mixdown of a song
you created for recording on an external DAT or
MD.
AUX OUT jacks allow external effect devices to be
connected.
• WAV files can be imported/exported, making it easy
for audio data to be exchanged with your computer.
• Mixer parameters can be controlled via MIDI. An
external MIDI sequencer can be used to implement
mixer automation.
• Data backed up by the D8, D12 and D16 digital
recording studio units can be restored into the
D1600, allowing easy transfer of data. Playable D12,
D16 drives can also be played back by the D1600.
