multitrack recorder

Abstract

The invention provides a multi-track recorder, which can simply and reliably realize the processing of duplicating the sound signal recorded in a certain track to other tracks. The multi-track recorder can set audio tracks 3 and 4 among the plurality of audio tracks 1 to 4 to any one of monophonic and stereophonic. When the track type is stored in the memory, and the audio signal recorded in the copy source track is copied and recorded to the copy destination track, the track type stored in the memory is used to copy the audio signal from the copy source track. The track corresponding to the type is automatically presented on the display part (24) as an available copy destination track.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a multi-track recorder for recording sound signals to a plurality of audio tracks. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, there are known multi-track recorders which record audio signals to a plurality of audio tracks. By using a multi-track recorder, for example, it is possible to record an accompaniment guitar part to track 1 using an electric guitar, a lead guitar part to track 2, a vocal to track 3 using the built-in microphone, and mix them to create a stereo signal And record etc. [0003] As a multi-track recorder, it is preferable to have as many tracks as possible to record audio signals. On the other hand, when the device is downsized in consideration of portability, the number of tracks has to be limited. In this case, consider limiting the number of audio tracks to a fixed number such as 4 audio tracks, and some of the audio tracks are not fixed to mono, but can be set to any mono or stereo One, th...

Problems solved by technology

[0007] For example, in the case of copying (copying) an audio signal recorded on a certain track to another track, if the track of the copy source is a monaural track and a monaural signal is recorded, the audio signal of the copy destination The track must also be a monaural track, but if the user does not set the desired copy destination track to monaural but to stereo, copying cannot be performed, causing trouble to the user

Although the user can accurately grasp which audio track is mono and which audio track is stereo, it will increase the burden on the user

In addition, it is troublesome to check which audio track is monaural and which audio track is stereo on a dedicated screen every time an audio signal is copied.
