Punch I/O - Roland EXR-46 OR Manuel D'utilisation

If you select track [10], you can select Drum Kits rather than
Tones. Track 10 is reserved for drum parts.
Note: If you use the Single recording mode for adding parts to a
Standard MIDI File recorded with another instrument or
sequencer, track 16 (or any other track defined as "second drum
track") may also use a Drum Kit that can be changed.
Note: Even though the Main part can be used for recording all
tracks in Single mode, the MFX only applies to track/MIDI chan-
nel 4.
(5) Press [START÷STOP] to start recording.
After a two-measure count-in (see p. 41), you will hear all
parts that have already been recorded. Start playing (and
recording) your new part.
(6) Press [START÷STOP] to stop recording.
(7) Return to step (3) to record additional parts.

Punch I/O

In this mode, you can re-record part of a track (the second
chorus, for example). The important aspect of this mode is
that newly recorded material does not erase the material
before or after the passage you redo.

By contrast, in Single mode, the entire track you record is
replaced by your new material. (So if you don't play anything
during recording, the entire track will be empty afterwards.)
Like the Single mode, Punch I/O can only be selected if the
EXR-46 OR's memory already contains song data.
(1) Press the [REC¥∏] button.
(2) Press FAMILY [√][®] to make the display look as follows:

The flashing track icon (only one) depends on the first track
that already contains data. In the above example, track 1
contains data, which is why its icon flashes.
(3) Use the SELECT [√][®] or numeric buttons to select the
track you wish to record to.
SELECT
You can only select one track at a time.
(4) Press [START÷STOP] to start playback of the (old) song
data.
The icon and the icon of the selected track flash.
RECORD
(5) When the Recorder reaches the measure where you wish
to start recording, press [REC¥∏] again.
The icon now lights steadily.
RECORD
(6) Play the passage you want to redo.
(7) Press [REC¥∏] again to deactivate recording.
Song playback still continues, so...
(8) Press [START÷STOP] to stop playback.
(9) Press [START÷STOP] to listen to the new version.
If you are not satisfied, return to step (3) above.
Return to step (3) to correct another track.
Using a footswitch for punching in/out
You can also use an optional footswitch for starting and
stopping recording. Doing so has the advantage that you can
use both hands for playing (or the left hand for Pitch Bend/
BEAT
Modulation effects and the right for playing the melody.)
• Connect an optional DP-2, DP-6, or BOSS FS-5U footswitch
to the FOOTSWITCH socket on the EXR-46 OR's rear panel.
• Press the [FUNCTION] button (it must light).
• Use FAMILY [√][®] to select "KB SET".
The EXR-46 OR's Function parameters are divided into 9 log-
ical "families". For the following, we need to select the group
that contains the global keyboard settings.
• Use SELECT [√][®] to select the "FSW" parameter.
Note: See also "Working with the FAMILY, SELECT and numeric
buttons" (p. 20).
• Use the [–][+] buttons to select "Punch I/O".
• Press [SONG] to return to the recording function.
• Continue with step (1) under "Punch I/O".
In steps (5) and (7), press the footswitch (rather than the
[REC¥∏] button).
