Before you can export your song to a WAV or MP3 file, you'll need to to bounce all of your tracks. Once your song is in WAV or MP3 format, you'll be able burn it to a CD or even send it as an email attachment. Bouncing is also useful when you would like to combine tracks and the built-in rhythm to a track.
While in Bounce mode, anything that you hear playing from the MICRO can be recorded to a single track or stereo track (i.e. all four tracks playing back as well as the built-in rhythm patterns). Follow these steps to bounce tracks on the MICRO BR:
- Press EXIT and UTILITY until you see "BOUNCE" on the display.
- The upper right corner of the display shows you the track you're bouncing to. By default, "12V2" (Track 1&2, V-Track 2) is displayed. You may use the CURSOR and VALUE buttons to select any track you like.
- Press STOP and REWIND at the same time to go back to the very beginning of your song.
- Press PLAY to hear the bounce and be sure that the master meter is as high as possible without going over--averaging at least four bars:
- If the meter is not high enough, raise the VOLUME knob on the side of the MICRO BR and/or raise the individual track volumes:
- Press TR1.
- Cursor to the right so that the cursor's under the track channel that you want to change.
- Use the VALUE buttons to adjust the volume of the track.
- Press STOP and REWIND at the same time to go back to the very beginning of your song.
- Press RECORD, and then press PLAY.
- When the song is finished playing, press STOP.
Note: If you would like to play back the bounced track, you can change the V.Track of the bounced track here: MICRO BR: How To Change V.Tracks
For example, if you bounced to track "12V2" (Track 1&2, V-Track 2), you will change track 1's V-Track to "2" and then change track 2's V-Track to "2".
