Dp-32sd
Hi there, I just fired up my dp-32sd for the first time. The undo/redo is somewhat confusing to me. On my old boss br1200 I was able to delete everything including virtual tracks per track. Is there a way to do this on this unit? I like to record a keyboard drum track on track 1 for all my songs that I record then erase it after so I can utilize that track again later on. Also after I would bounce all tracks on the br1200 to a single stereo track then I could erase all tracks again except my bounced stereo track and open up more tracks for recording on as well as free up harddrive/SD card space. Is this possible on the dp-32sd? I hope so. I searched through some threads but couldn't really find a clear answer to my question. If anyone can help me with this that would be super awesome and greatly appreciated. Thanks. Kurt
 
Nevermind, I'm a idiot. Got it figured for the delete a full track. 😆

There is a TON of really great info in the "Production Tips" and "Equipment Related Tips" up above -- well worth looking through some time.

And if you're not aware of it, Phil Tipping wrote an excellent user's guide for the DP24/32 series -- which puts the owners manual to shame. You can search this forum or Google how to get it (plus he has a whole series of videos out on youtube).

Good luck.

Ace, thankyou Old No7. Yes, the manufacturer manual certainly isn't fantastic but the quality and sound that the dp-32sd captures seems to be great so there's another win. Cheers
 
Everyone has there own methods and workflow. I get and respect that. Having said that - it's a little odd these days to hear someone deleting stuff. Unless it's just entirely horrific or otherwise unusable. But we live in a time when memory and storage is cheap, easy, and vast. There is no reason to ever delete. You have huge SD card storage, the ability to create a new song(s), *virtual tracks*, and alternate storage via computers.

Just sayin.....

Well, ya see my problem was that once upon a time I recorded a few extra parts on a track with a punch in punch out method. Now that track that I used had some of the previously recorded drums on it before bouncing. I didn't realize it at the time but when I bounced everything and mastered the song that some of the drums on that track came through very loud just before the start and then again at the end of those punch ins and somehow I missed it. I had forgot about this because I took a long break before I mixed the song. So to avoid having time stamps now I just like to clear out tracks if they have been bounced to avoid any problems like that if I am going to use that track to record bits and pieces for something else like a solo or something. That's my reasoning and you are right, people do things differently. Cheers
