Additional Features of Version 2

Nondestructive Overdubbing Function for Music Creation

The overdubbing function allows for overdub recording while
playing a recorded file. This can allow you to record other
parts of a musical production such as a guitar solo over a
recording made at a rehearsal studio later at home.
Overdubbing creates a new file, leaving the original file
unaffected, making it easy to rerecord.
Reverb Effect for Vocal and Instrument Resonance

Reverb can be added for music demo recordings and overdub
recordings to add a more natural resonance. Reverb can also
be used during playback, making it possible to express the
‘live’ feeling at a hall by adding reverb to created music.
Auto recording function that can start recording automatically

Records and pauses automatically. If the input signal level falls below the nominal
level for more than 5 seconds during recording, it automatically switches to
standby. If the input sound level rises above the nominal level again, recording
restarts as a new file. This is useful when you do not want to record unnecessary
portions such as lecture intermissions.
Auto mark function that can put the mark automatically

If the input signal level falls below the nominal level for more than 5 seconds
during recording, it sets a mark when it rises above the nominal level again. This is
useful when you want to search for a song position after a recording such as for
live recordings. Marks can be used by BWF compatible software.
