Yamaha"s AW4416 recording workstation
Recording & Editing
The HD recorder provides 16 discrete tracks on an internal IDE drive, with a further seven virtual tracks effectively layered beneath each real one. This allows overdubs to be saved and compared before "comping" to a final track. It isn"t possible to switch between virtual tracks on the fly -- you have to stop the machine first. The normal record/overdub mode allows up to eight tracks of simultaneous recording with the other tracks replaying. However, there"s also an "All Record" mode that disables playback but permits simultaneous recording on all 16 tracks.
