Frequently Asked Questions - D1200CD KORG

How do I clean the blender jar?

Remove the jar from the base. Wash the jar and lid in warm soapy water using a soft sponge. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive cleaners. The jar is not dishwasher safe.

Can I blend hot liquids?

No, the blender is not designed for hot liquids. Allow liquids to cool below 60°C before blending to avoid pressure buildup and potential lid ejection.

Why does the blender stop during operation?

The blender has an overload protection feature. If it stops, unplug and let it cool for 15 minutes. Ensure the jar is not overfilled and contents are not too thick.

What is the maximum capacity for dry ingredients?

Do not fill the jar more than halfway for dry ingredients. For wet blending, do not exceed the 1.5L mark. Overfilling may cause leakage or motor strain.

How to replace the blade assembly?

Contact Korg customer service for genuine replacement parts. To replace, unscrew the blade base from the jar, remove the old gasket, install new blade, and tighten securely.

The blender vibrates excessively. What's wrong?

Ensure the blender is on a flat, stable surface. Check that the jar is properly locked onto the base. Overfilling or uneven load can cause vibration. Reduce quantity if needed.

Can I use the blender to crush ice?

Yes, the blender can crush ice. Use pulse function and add enough liquid to facilitate crushing. Do not use large ice cubes without liquid.

How to store the blender?

Unplug and clean all parts. Store the blender with the jar empty and lid off to allow drying. Keep in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight.

Is the blender suitable for commercial use?

No, the Korg D1200CD is designed for household use only. Continuous heavy-duty use may lead to motor failure and void the warranty.

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Korg D1200 Digital Recording Studio.

To take full advantage of the D1200's functions and enjoy trouble-free use, please read this manual carefully and use the product as directed. Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

Main features

12-track digital multi-track recorder

In a compact package, the D1200 provides the studio-quality sound that you expect from Korg, with 24-bit recording and 16/24-bit uncompressed playback at a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz. A maximum of 12 tracks can be played back simultaneously (for 16-bit data), and up to four tracks can be recorded simultaneously. Recording time is a maximum of approximately 186 hours (when recording one track at 16-bit resolution). Each track provides eight virtual tracks, so you can record as many as 96 tracks in one song.

XLR connectors with +48 V phantom power, analog inputs, dedicated guitar input jack, and digital connectors

All analog inputs of the D1200 use high-performance balanced head amps in order to take full advantage of the audio quality provided by full-digital processing. The two XLR input jacks provide +48 V phantom power and have high-quality mic preamps, allowing condenser mics to be connected directly. All phone-jack inputs are balanced TRS types, and also support unbalanced input. Input sources for a range of levels from mic level to +16 dBu (higher than professional level) can be connected. A dedicated guitar input jack is also provided. The S/P DIF digital input contains a sampling rate converter which automatically converts 48 kHz and 32 kHz sources to 44.1 kHz, allowing them to be recorded.

Mixer section provides three-band EQ with sweepable mid-range. 100 scene memories and mixer data transmission/reception via MIDI.

The 16-channel 4-bus mixer section of the D1200 provides three-band EQ on each analog input and mixer channel. High and low EQ are shelving types, and the mid EQ is an adjustable peaking type with a sweepable center frequency. Since separate EQ is provided for the inputs and for the mixer, you won't need to worry about recording EQ settings being re-applied to the playback – a problem that often occurs on MTR units containing analog mixers.

The faders, EQ, pan, and effect settings of the mixer can be stored in one of 100 scenes. Scenes can be recalled automatically as playback time passes, or can be recalled immediately at any time as general-purpose settings.

MIDI can be used to transmit and receive mixer data such as fader and pan, allowing you to use an external sequencer to perform mixer automation.

Powerful modeling effects with easy icon and knob-based operation.

The internal effects use Korg's "Modeling technology to deliver detailed and powerful modeling sounds. "Modeling mode" lets you use easily understandable icon displays and three modeling effect knobs to select modeling effects for guitar or bass, edit the parameters, and modify values – just by using icons and knobs.

As modeling effects, the D1200 provides ten distortion-type effects for guitar, a vacuum tube simulator, and eleven types of cabinet from famous amps from around the world. For bass, choose from three dynamics-type effects and five types of modulation/spatial effects such as chorus and delay. For mics, you can use studio simulators with six types of room size and resonance, seven types of mic simulation ranging from vintage tube mics to modern studio condenser mics, and three dynamics-type effects.

When using Modeling mode, the Auto Routing function lets you record immediately by simply selecting the desired track.

Three independent effect systems for simultaneous use

The D1200 contains three independent effects system, all of which use 44-bit internal processing; Insert, Master, and Final effects. The settings for each of the insert, master, and final effects can be saved as one of the 192 user effect programs. Each program can combine up to five of the 98 available high-quality effect types. Internal memory contains 128 insert, 32 master, and 32 final effect programs for a total of 192 preset programs, all created by professional musicians and studio engineers. You can also edit a preset program and save your own settings effect program in one of the 192 user areas.

An external MIDI controller or expression pedal (separately sold EXP-2 or XVP-10) can also be used to control the insert effect in realtime.

Sophisticated editing functionality

The D1200 lets you use the non-destructive editing functions available only on digital recorders to edit your sound without impairing its pristine quality. You can use auto or manual punch-in/out recording. Using the convenient Undo and Redo feature, as many as 99 of the last recording or editing operations can be cancelled or recalled. The ten types of track editing operation include Time Expansion/Compression which lets you match the tempo of previously-recorded phrases of differing tempo, and Normalize which boosts under-recorded tracks to an appropriate level.

You can assign as many as one hundred marker points to each song, and specify four locate points for easy access to song locations for editing.

High-capacity built-in 40 GB hard disk drive. USB connector for smooth data exchange with an external USB hard disk drive or computer.

A high-capacity 40 GB hard disk drive is built-in. Of the capacity of this drive, 2 GB is allocated as a "USB drive*" that can be used from a computer connected to the USB connector, allowing data to be shared. The remaining capacity is used as the "song drive" for storing songs. Since WAV files can be imported or exported, it's easy to transfer audio data to or from your computer.

*FAT16 compatible

Optional CDRW-1 CD-R/RW drive lets you create audio CDs

If the CDRW-1 CD-R/RW drive (sold separately) is installed, you can use it to backup/restore songs or effect data, export/import WAVE files, or create audio CDs. You can also insert an audio CD in the drive, patch the signal to a mixer channel, and record it. When writing an Audio CD, you can write each song separately (Track At Once), or write the entire disc in one operation (Disc At Once) for example to make a CD of a continuous live performance where markers are inserted in the song to indicate the tracks of the audio CD.

Auto chromatic tuner function

An auto chromatic tuner is built-in, letting you to tune a connected guitar or other instrument. The panel provides dedicated keys for the tuner, for tuning at any time.

Backlit LCD display with adjustable angle

The backlit 240 · 64 pixel LCD screen is easily readable even in dim locations, and you can adjust the angle for best visibility. The display contrast is also adjustable.

Auto Save function automatically preserves your data at power-off

The D1200 features an Auto Save function that automatically saves your recorded or edited songs and phrases to the hard disk whenever you switch songs or turn off the power.

What is 2EMS

REIMS (Resonant structure and Electronic circuit Modeling System) is Korg's proprietary technology for digitally recreating the numerous factors that produce and influence a sound, ranging from the sound-production mechanisms of acoustic instruments and electric/electronic musical instruments, to the resonances of an instrument body or speaker cabinet, the sound field in which the instrument is played, the propagation route of the sound, the electrical and acoustic response of mics and speakers, and the changes produced by vacuum tubes and transistors.

MUTE (LED dark): The track is muted (silent).

The states that can be selected will depend on the state and settings of the recorder.

While stopped: PLAY → INPUT → REC → MUTE → PLAY

While recording or playing: PLAY MUTE, INPUT MUTE

Modeling mode: PLAY → REC → MUTE → PLAY

note These settings can be paired, or registered in a scene.

8 [ P AN] knobs (Ch1...6), [BALANCE] knobs (Ch7...12)

For each channel, these knobs adjust the position (pan) or left/right balance of the stereo signal to the master LR bus ( p.37).

For channels 1–6 for which pairing is "Off," these knobs control panning to the master LR bus.

For channels 1–6 for which pairing is "On" and for channels 7–12, these knobs control the left/right balance of the stereo signal to the master LR bus.

note These settings can be paired, or registered in a scene.

When recording to channels that have a balance setting, you must set the knob to "CNT."

9 [CHANNEL] faders (Ch1...6, Ch7/8...11/12)

These faders adjust the recording/playback volume of each channel ( p.37).

Channels 7–12 are stereo faders.

note These settings can be paired, or registered in a scene.

- For channels whose [TRACK STATUS] is PLAY, the fader adjusts the playback volume.

- For channels whose [TRACK STATUS] is REC, the fader adjusts the recording level of the external audio source or the rhythm.

- For channels whose [TRACK STATUS] is INPUT, the fader adjusts the recording level of the external audio source.

note Faders that adjust the recording level will function differently depending on whether an external input is being recorded or bounce recording is being performed.

- When recording an external input (i.e., when the [BOUNCE] "RecMode" tab page "Select RecMode" parameter is set to "Input"), the channel fader adjusts the recording level.

10 [MASTER] fader

This fader adjusts the overall volume of all channels. The volume adjusted by this fader is output from the [MASTER OUT L/R] jacks and the [S/P DIF OUT] jack.

- When recording an external input (i.e., when the [BOUNCE] "RecMode" tab page "Select RecMode"

parameter is set to "Input"), the master fader adjusts the volume level of the master LR bus.

- When bounce-recording (i.e., when the [BOUNCE] "RecMode" tab page "Select RecMode" parameter is set to "Bounce"), the master fader adjusts the recording level to the track(s) whose [TRACK STATUS] is REC.

11 [REW] key

This key changes the location to an earlier time (rewind) while stopped or moving. If you hold down the [STOP] key and press the [REW] key, you will move to the previous-numbered song (if you are already at the beginning of the song) or to the beginning of the current song (if you are in the middle of the song).

Step 2: Overdubbing

1. Assigning inputs to the mixer

In this section, you'll connect your keyboard to the [INPUT 3] and [INPUT 4] jacks, assign the signals to mixer channels 9 and 10, and record the signal on tracks 9 and 10.

① Set the INPUT 3 and INPUT 4 [TRIM] knobs to the minimum position (+4 dB), lower the [MASTER] fader, and connect your keyboard to the [INPUT 3] and [INPUT 4] jacks.

② Specify the input channels. Access the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Ch7-12" tab page. Select the "Ch9" icon, and use the [VALUE] dial to select "INPUT 3." In the same way, select the "Ch10" icon and use the [VALUE] dial to select "INPUT 4."

Using these settings, the [INPUT 3] and [INPUT 4] jacks will be assigned to mixer channels 9 and 10.

③ Press the track 9/10 [TRACK STATUS] key to select INPUT (LED lit orange).

④ Use the [TRIM] knobs to adjust the input level. Press the [METER/TRACK VIEW] key. Select the "button and press the [ENTER] key to open the dialog box. Select "PreFaderLev," and press the [YES/OK] key.

As you play the keyboard, watch the Ch9 and Ch10 levels and adjust the INPUT 3 and 4 [TRIM] knobs.

Set the levels as high as possible without allowing the level meters to reach "CLP" when you play the keyboard at your loudest level. In general, you should adjust the [TRIM] knob so that the peak indicator (the LED near the [TRIM] knob) lights when the maximum input level is reached.

⑤ Set the [CHANNEL 9–10] fader to unity gain (0 dB).

If you are using a stereo input source, it will be easier to edit track and effect settings if you select adjacent inputs (1–2 or 3–4), and route them to adjacent mixer channels.

Use the [PHONES LEVEL] knob or the [MONITOR OUT LEVEL] knob to adjust the output volume.

2. Applying an insert effect to the keyboard.

① Access the [INSERT EFFECT] "InsAss" tab page.

② Select the "Assign:" ▶"button and press the [ENTER] key to open the dialog box. Select "Input(In)" and press the [YES/OK] key.
③ Select the "SelectEffType:" ▶"button and press the [ENTER] key. Select the "2in2outx2" effect type (as shown in the screen in step 1) and press the [YES/OK] key.
④ Now we need to insert the effect between INPUT 3 and channel 9, and between INPUT 4 and channel 10.

Select the "InsertTo:" button and press the [ENTER] key.

In the display, you will see the two insert effects shown as boxes labeled 1 and 2. The numbers to the left show which inputs are feeding the effect, the numbers to the right show to which channels the effect is being output.

⑤ Select an effect program.

Access the [INSERT EFFECT] "InstEff1" tab page. Select "EffectNumber," and turn the [VALUE] dial to select an effect program. When you have made your selection, press the [YES/OK] key.

3. Overdubbing

① Select the playback tracks.

For each track that you want to play back, press the [TRACK STATUS] key to select PLAY (LED lit green). For this example, set tracks 1 and 2 to PLAY.

② Select the recording tracks.

For each track that you want to record, press the [TRACK STATUS] key to select REC (LED lit red). For this example, set tracks 9/10 to REC.

③ Mute the tracks you are not using.

For each track that is not being played or recorded, press the [TRACK STATUS] key to select MUTE (LED dark), so that you will not hear tracks that are not being recorded or played.

Effect Program List ( p.154)

④ In the [BOUNCE] "RecMode" tab page, make sure that "Select Rec Mode" is set to "Input."

⑤ For this example, we will start recording from the beginning of the song ("001.01.000" or "000:00.000"). If you are not at the beginning, hold down the [STOP] key and tap the [REW] key to return to the beginning of the song.

⑥ Enter record-ready mode. Press the [REC] key (the [REC] and [PLAY] LEDs will blink).

⑦ Begin recording. Press the [PLAY] key (the [REC] and [PLAY] LEDs will light). Begin playing the keyboard.

⑧ Stop recording. When you have finished performing, press the [STOP] key (the [REC] and [PLAY] LEDs will go dark).

⑨ Listen to the overdub. Return to the beginning of the song. Press the track 9 and 10 [TRACK STATUS] keys to set them to PLAY (lit green). Press the [PLAY] key.

4. Overdubbing additional parts

Next we'll add a vocal on track 3.

① Connect a mic to the [INPUT 1] jack.

② Press the [MODELING] key to enter Modeling mode. Select "MIC" as the Modeling Category.

③ Set the track 3 [TRACK STATUS] to REC. When you enter Modeling mode, tracks 1 and 2 will be set to REC. Press the track 1 and 2 [TRACK STATUS] keys to set them to PLAY, and press the track 3 [TRACK STATUS] key to set it to REC.

④ Adjust the input level, recording level, and effects to prepare for recording.

⑤ Move to the location at which you want to start recording, and start recording. Press the [FF] key or [REW] key to move to the desired time location. Press the [REC] key and then the [PLAY] key to start recording. When you are done, press the [STOP] key.

⑥ Let's change virtual tracks to record another take. Press the [TRACK] key to access the "Vtr1-6" tab page.

Select track "3a" and turn the [VALUE] dial to change it to "3b."

⑦ Move the location again, and begin recording. Move to the location from which you want to begin recording, and press the [REC] key and then the [PLAY] key to begin recording.

⑧ Play back track 3. Press the [TRACK STATUS] key to select PLAY, and press the [PLAY] key to play back. At this time, track "3b" will play back.

Counter display ( p.32)

When you have finished recording, check to be sure that your performance was recorded correctly.

Use phantom power if you have connected a condenser mic.

Move to time (→p.32)

Virtual tracks (→p.53)

If you want to play back a track that you have already recorded, set that track's [TRACK STATUS] to PLAY.

In order to play track "3a" which you recorded first, press the [TRACK] key, access the "Vtr1-6" tab page, select "3b," and turn the [VALUE] dial to change it to "3a."

Compare the two takes you recorded in virtual tracks "a" and "b." When you have decided which take is the best, leave that virtual track selected.

Step 3. Mixing

In this step you will complete your song by applying effects to the tracks and adjusting the volume and EQ to create the overall balance. This process is called "mixing."

1. Applying an insert effect to a track

Previously, we applied the insert effects to the inputs, to process the sound as we recorded. Here's how to apply an insert effect into a mixer channel, and process the playback sound of the track. In this example, we are assigning an insert effect to the vocal(Mic) recording on track 3.

① Select which tracks will be played back.

Press the [TRACK STATUS] key of each recorded track to select PLAY mode (LED lit green), the playback of the selected tracks will be included in the mix.

② Access the [INSERT EFFECT] "InsAss" tab page.

③ Select the "Assign:" button and press the [ENTER] key. In the dialog box that appears, select "PlayTrack(Trk)."

When you have made your selection, press the [YES/OK] key.

④ Select the "SelectEffType:" button and press the [ENTER] key to select the effect type.

For this example, select "1in1outx4." Make your selection, and press the [YES/OK] key.

To exit Modeling mode ( p.47)

Effect types ( p.42, 85)

⑤ Specify the channel where you want to insert the effect. Select the "InsertTo:" button, and press the [ENTER] key to open the dialog box.

For each effect, turn the [VALUE] dial at "SelectCh" to select the input (output) channel. For this example, set effect 1 to channel "3." When you have made the setting, press the [YES/OK] key.

⑥ Select an effect program. In the insert effect "InsEff1" tab page, select the effect program that you want to use. Select "EffectNumber," and turn the [VALUE] dial to select an effect program.

⑦ Press the [PLAY] key to begin playback. You can also select an effect program while you listen to the play-back.

2. Adding EQ (equalization) to each track

① Press the [EQ] key. Select the [EQ] "EQ1-4," "Eq5-8," or "Eq9-12" tab page that contains the EQ settings you want to adjust.

② Select the EQ you want to adjust. The following EQ controls are provided for each channel.

③ Adjust the gain and frequency. Adjusting the gain in the “−” direction will cut the sound, and in the “+” direction will boost the sound. Raising the mid EQ frequency setting will cause the mid-range boost/cut to affect a higher frequency range. Lowering it will cause the boost/cut to affect a lower frequency range. ④ Press the [PLAY] key to start playback. You can also adjust the EQ while you listen to the playback.

EQ ( p.37, 88)

3. Applying master effects to several tracks

Here we will select several tracks, and apply master effects to them. The D1200 contains two master effects. By combining two different effects you can simulate complex spatial environments that could not be produced by a single effect alone.

For example you could apply "RV1:ReverbHall" to master effect 1 and "RV5:ReverbRoom" to master effect 2, so that you can vary the character of the reverb applied to each instrument by adjusting the two send levels on each channel.

In this way, you can use two different effects in conjunction with each other to create complex spatial-type effects that could not be achieved by a single effect.

① Press the [MASTER EFFECT/AUX SEND] key to access the [MASTER EFFECT/AUX SEND] "MstEff1" tab page.

② Select an effect program.

Select "EffectNumber," and turn the [VALUE] dial to select an effect program.

③ Set the return level and return balance of the signal that is sent from the master effect to master LR.

For this example, set "RetLev" (return level) to "100," and "RetBal" (return balance) to "CNT" (center).

④ Adjust the send levels.

The send levels from each channel to master effect 1 can be adjusted in the "EffSnd1" tab page.

Select each "Send" icon knob, and turn the [VALUE] dial to adjust the send levels.

In this example, we will apply master effect 1 to tracks 1, 2, and 9/10.

⑤ Press the [PLAY] key to start playback.

While the song plays, listen to the master LR output and hear the effects that are applied.

Adjust the return level and the send levels so that the master effect level meters do not indicate "CLP."

To apply master effect 2, make similar adjustments in the "MstEff2" and "EffSnd2" tab pages.

Effect Program List (→p.154)

Step 4. Mastering

In this step, we create a final two-track mix and write it to CD-R to create an original CD.

Note You will need the separately sold CDRW-1 in order to create a CD.

1. Applying the final effect

Here we will adjust the pan and volume for each track, and apply a final effect to the entire song.

The final effect is used mainly to apply a dynamics-type effect such as a compressor, to make the overall level more consistent. You can apply an effect such as a multi-band limiter to add the finishing touch to the sound.

① Adjust the pan of each playback track. Press the [PLAY] key to play back the song, and turn the [PAN] and [BALANCE] knobs to adjust the stereo position of tracks 1–12.
② Use the [CHANNEL] faders to adjust the playback level. Press the [METER/TRACK VIEW] key to view the level meters. Select the "button and press the [ENTER] key to open the dialog box. Select "PostFaderLev" to view the meters corresponding to each fader.
③ Access the [FINAL EFFECT] "FinalEff" tab page.

④ Select an effect program. Select "EffectNumber," and use the [VALUE] dial to select an effect program. Press the [PLAY] key to play back the song, and listen to the output from the master LR or headphones to hear the effect. When you have finished making adjustments, press the [STOP] key.

2. Creating the master track

In order to create an audio CD from a multi-track song, you will need to combine the tracks into two tracks of data.

Here we will bounce-record the completed song, creating a stereo master mix on tracks 1 and 2.

① Use the [MASTER] fader to adjust the recording level. Play back the entire song, and adjust the [MASTER] fader so that the "CLP" indication does not appear for the master LR level meter.
② Select the tracks where the master mix will be recorded. For the tracks that you will record (tracks 1 and 2), set the [TRACK STATUS] keys to REC. Set the remaining tracks (3–12) to PLAY.
③ Select bounce-recording as the recording mode. Press the [BOUNCE] key to access the [BOUNCE] "RecMode" tab page, and set "Select RecMode" to "Bounce."

④ Select the bounce mode.

Access the [BOUNCE] "Bounce" tab page, and select "12Tr→2Tr" as the "BounceMode."

⑤ Set "RecordVirtualTrack" to specify the virtual tracks (of the record tracks) on which you will record.

If you want to record on the currently selected virtual tracks, select "Current."

⑥ Move the current location to the beginning of the song. (→p.32)

⑦ Begin bounce-recording.

Press the [REC] key to enter record-ready mode (LED blinking), and press the [PLAY] key to begin recording (LED lit).

When you are finished recording, press the [STOP] key to stop.

⑧ Check the recorded content.

Press the [TRACK STATUS] keys of the recording tracks (1 and 2) to select PLAY mode.

For the remaining tracks 3–12, either lower the faders to the minimum position or set their [TRACK STATUS] keys to MUTE.

Return to the beginning of the song and press the [PLAY] key to hear the results. Press the [STOP] key to stop.

3. Writing to CD

Finally we will use the CD-R/RW drive to create an original CD of the song you just recorded. Press the [CD] key to access the "Prepare" tab page.

① First, let's select the two tracks you bounce-recorded, and use Track Monitor to listen to them.

In "SelTrks," select the master tracks to which you bounce-recorded your mix. For this example, select "1–2."

Turn "TrackMonitor" on, and press the [PLAY] key.

You will hear tracks 1 and 2 which you selected in "SelTrks."

② Insert a commercially-available blank CD-R disc into the CDRW-1.

③ Access the [CD] "CDR/RW" tab page.

Make sure that "CD-R/RW Information" indicates "BlankDisc."

④ Write to CD.

Select the "WriteToCD" button and press the [ENTER] key.

Select the writing speed. For this example, select "8X." The disc will be written at 8X speed.

If you select "Current," your mix will be recorded on the same virtual tracks as were played back. If you want to keep the data of those virtual tracks after bounce-recording, you must select virtual tracks other than "Current."

In order to create an audio CD, the D1200's internal hard disk must have as much free space as is occupied by the song (the two-channel total) you are creating. For example in order to create an audio CD of a five-minute song, you must have enough free space to accommodate ten minutes of monaural recording.

If the song you write to CD has no silence at the beginning (i.e., at time "zero"), you may not hear the very beginning of the song when the CD is played back. In such cases, insert about half a second of silence at the beginning ("zero" time) of the two-track mix. p.58: "InsertTrack")

If you leave "TrackMonitor" turned on, you can monitor the playback without EQ or effects being applied.

Since some audio CD players will not play CD-RW discs, we recommend that you use CD-R discs to create audio CDs.

The "Obey Copyright Rules" message will appear.

Carefully read the section "COPYRIGHT WARNING" (→p.1) in the owner's manual, and press the [YES/OK] key if you accept the terms.

Writing to disc will begin.

When writing is finished, the display will indicate "Completed." Press the [NO/CANCEL] key.

⑤ If you want to write another song, select a song then use steps ①-④ to write additional songs.
⑥ Finalize the disc.

If you want to be able to play back the disc, select the "Final" button and press the [ENTER] key to finalize the disc.

A message will ask you to confirm the operation. If you are sure that you want to finalize the disc, press the [YES/OK] key.

When finalization is completed, the "Completed" message will appear, and the CDRW-1 tray will open. Press the [YES/OK] key.

⑦ Play back the disc on an audio CD player to verify that it plays correctly.

You and your Korg D1200 have now created an original CD of your own performance!

While the disc is being written, you can select the "Abort" button and press the [ENTER] key to abort the writing process. However, this will produce an incomplete disc.

If you want to create another CD with the identical contents, press the [YES/OK] key.

No further songs can be written to a disc that has been finalized. Finalize the disc only after you have written all the songs you intend to write to that disc.

Mixer

1. Inputting audio to the mixer

The D1200 has four channels of analog input and one (two-channel) digital input. Audio from devices connected to these input jacks can be assigned to the mixer channels, monitored and recorded. If the CDRW-1 CD-R/RW drive option (sold separately) is installed, you can also assign the audio from an audio CD to the mixer channels.

This section explains how to assign the various inputs to the mixer channels.

1-1. Analog input

Create a new song before you proceed with the following steps.

Connecting a guitar to the [GUITAR IN] jack, assigning it to mixer channel 1, and adjusting the levels

① Set the INPUT 1 [TRIM] knob to the minimum position (+4 dB) and lower the [MASTER] fader. Then connect your guitar to the [GUITAR IN] jack jack on the front edge of the D1200.
② Access the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Ch1-6" tab page, select the "Ch1" icon, and turn the [VALUE] dial to select "INPUT1."
The [GUITAR IN] input jack is now assigned to mixer channel 1.

③ Press the track 1 [TRACK STATUS] key to set it to INPUT (LED lit orange).
④ Press the [METER/TRACK VIEW] key. Select the button and press the [ENTER] key to open the dialog box.

Select the "PreFaderLev" radio button, press the [ENTER] key, and press the [YES/OK] key. When you play your guitar, the track 1 level meter will move accordingly. While you watch the level meter, adjust the INPUT 1 [TRIM] knob. Raise the [TRIM] knob as far as possible without allowing the level meter to reach the CLP level when you play your guitar at its loudest level.

• Set the [MASTER] and [CHANNEL 1] faders to unity gain (0 dB).
• Access the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Monitor" tab page.
• Select the "MasterLR" button and press the [ENTER] key to turn it "On" (highlighted).
• Slowly raise the [PHONES LEVEL] knob or [MONITOR OUT LEVEL] knob, and verify that you hear sound from the headphones or from the monitor speakers etc. connected to the [MONITOR OUT] jacks.

    I --> J["Solo"]
    J --> K["Monitor"]
    K --> L["Phase"]

Using the tuner

The D1200 has a built-in tuner. Here's how to tune an instrument connected to the [INPUT 1] or [GUITAR IN] jack.

① Press the [TUNER] key to access the tuner screen.
② Use "Calib" to specify the reference frequency. Normally you will set this to "440 Hz."
③ Play a note your instrument.

- The note name that is closest to the input pitch will be displayed.

- If the pitch is correct, "will appear at the 0 position in the center of the meter, and the "(flat) and (sharp) symbols will both light.

If the pitch is flat, only "will light. If the pitch is sharp, only "will light.

note The amount of pitch deviation is displayed in units of cents. (100 cents = semitone; 1200 cents = 1 octave)
note This page cannot be selected during recording or play-back. Nor can you perform recording here.
note In order to detect the pitch accurately, the effects will automatically be turned off while this page is displayed.

1-2. Digital input

The D1200 lets you input and record a digital signal using the S/P DIF input.

The S/P DIF input contains a sampling rate converter. If the connected input source has a sampling rate of 48 kHz or 32 kHz, it will automatically be converted to 44.1 kHz.

Inputting audio from a DAT connected to the [S/P DIF IN] jack into mixer channels 1 and 2

① Lower the [MASTER] fader of the D1200, and use an optical digital cable to connect the digital output of your DAT to the [S/P DIF IN] jack.
② Access the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Ch1-6" tab page.

Select the "DigiIn" button, and press the [ENTER] key. A message of "Obey Copyright Rules" will appear.

Carefully read the owner's manual section "COPYRIGHT WARNING" (→p.1), and if you accept the conditions, press the [YES/OK] key in response to "AreYouSure?" The digital input is now enabled.

③ Select the "Ch1" icon and turn the [VALUE] dial to select "S/P DIF L." Then select the "Ch2" icon and turn the [VALUE] dial to select "S/P DIF R." The digital input from the [S/P DIF IN] jack is assigned to mixer channels 1 and 2.

④ Play back your DAT, and press the track 1 and 2 [TRACK STATUS] keys to set them to INPUT (LED lit orange).
⑤ Next, check the digital input audio levels. For instructions, refer to steps ③, ④, and ⑤ of "Connecting a guitar to the [GUITAR IN] jack, and assigning it to mixer channel 1."
Insert effects cannot be used when using digital input.

2. Adjusting the mixer

In the mixer section you can create the overall "mix" by adjusting the volume, tone, and panning of the inputs that are assigned to each mixer channel, or to the recorded sounds that are being played back.

note For details on adjusting the effects, refer to "Effects" ( p.42).

2-1. Adjusting the volume

Use the [CHANNEL] faders to adjust the input, recording, or playback volume of each channel. Raise or lower the fader to set the appropriate volume.

Note The [CHANNEL] faders adjust the gain in a range from silence ( - ) all the way up to +12 dB.
Note Normally you should set the faders to unity gain (0 dB - the input signal is output at the same volume), and lower the faders of channels that are too loud rather than raising the faders of channels that are too quiet. This will make it less likely that the sound will clip (distort).

• If pairing is on, use the odd-numbered channel fader to adjust the volume. (→p.37)
• Fader settings can be registered in a scene. (→p.39)

To adjust the volume level of each input channel

Use the [CHANNEL] faders to adjust the volume level of each mixer channel assigned in the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Ch1-6" or "Ch7-12" tab page.

Since the output level will differ depending on the equipment that is connected, use the [TRIM] knobs to make adjustments as described in steps ③ and ④ of "Connecting a guitar to the [GUITAR IN] jack, assigning it to mixer channel 1, and adjusting the levels" (→p.35).

To adjust the overall volume level

Use the [MASTER] fader to adjust the volume of the master LR bus that is output from the headphones and the [MASTER OUT] jacks.

2-2. Adjusting the pan

Use the [PAN] or [BALANCE] knobs to adjust the location of each channel in the stero field.

• When pairing is on, the knob of the odd-numbered channel can be used as a [BALANCE] knob to adjust the position of the sound. (-p.38)
• Pan settings can be registered in a scene. (→p.39)

Channel 1-6 [PAN] knobs

Turn the knob toward L to move the sound left, or toward R to move the sound right.

Channel 7-12 [BALANCE] knobs

Turn the knob toward L to increase the volume of the odd-numbered channel. Turn the knob toward R to increase the volume of the even-numbered channel.

note Normally you will pan the vocals and bass to the center, and spread the other instruments out across the stereo field. As an example, guitar might be to panned to the left, with the piano balancing it on the right.

When recording in stereo

If you want to input a stereo source to tracks 7/8–11/12 and record it in stereo, set the channel 7/8–11/12 [BALANCE] knobs to the center. Similarly, if you want to turn pairing (=PAN) on for a pair of channels 1/2–5/6

and record in stereo, set the [PAN] knob of the odd-numbered paired channel to the center.

2-3. Using EQ to adjust the tone

A three-band equalizer (EQ) is available to adjust the tone of each input channel and each playback channel.

- T o adjust the input sound (analog), make EQ adjustments in the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "InEq1-4" tab page. These settings will affect the tone for recording.

- To adjust the track playback sound, make EQ adjustments in the [EQ] "Eq1–4," "Eq5–8," and "Eq9–12" tab pages.

note EQ is used to cut obtrusive frequency regions such as hiss, or to cut or boost the low or high ranges. Normally, you should adjust EQ so that the tone is clear and well-defined. Excessive EQ settings such as boosting the EQ gain of each channel to the maximum value will make the overall mix uneven, and cause listening fatigue. Use EQ in the "cut" direction as well. It is best to use the minimum amount of EQ that will achieve the desired result.

- If pairing is on, use the odd-numbered "Eq" to make adjustments. (→p.38)

- EQ settings can be registered in a scene. ( p.39)

Applying EQ to an analog input/Applying EQ as you record

You can apply EQ to an analog input (not to the digital input), and record the sound using these EQ settings.

① Access the page that contains the channel where you want the EQ to be applied, by selecting the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "InEq1-4" tab page.

② Input an audio signal, and adjust the level appropriately. Refer to "Connecting a guitar to the [GUITAR IN] jack, assigning it to mixer channel 1, and adjusting the levels" ( p.35). Verify that the level meter at the left edge of the display moves, and that you can hear the sound.

③ Select the "InputEQ" gain settings and mid EQ frequency, and turn the [VALUE] dial to adjust them.

High EQ, Low EQ

- Select "High EQ Gain (H)" or "Low EQ Gain (L)" for the channel you want to adjust, and turn the [VALUE] dial to adjust the gain. The value is shown in the upper left of the screen.

Mid EQ

• Select "Mid EQ Frequency (F)" for the channel you want to adjust, and turn the [VALUE] dial to adjust the frequency. The value is shown in the upper left of the screen.
• Select "Mid EQ Gain (M)" for the channel you want to adjust, and turn the [VALUE] dial to adjust the gain. The value is shown in the upper left of the screen.

④ Record the sound as processed by the EQ. (→p.53)

Applying EQ to the track playback sound

- The EQ that is applied to the track playback sound can be adjusted in the [EQ] "Eq1–4," "Eq5–8," and "Eq9–12" tab pages. Refer to Quick Start Tutorial. (→p.26)

2-4. Pairing

By specifying adjacent odd-numbered and even-numbered channels (1–2, 3–4, 5–6) as a pair, you can adjust the values of both channels simultaneously by editing the value of the odd-numbered channel.

This is convenient when you want to make mixer settings for a stereo-recorded track.

The following settings can be paired.

• [TRACK STATUS] key
• EQ (channel EQ)
• E f fSnd1+2 (effect send)
- AuxSend (external send)
• [ P AN] knob
• [CHANNEL] fader

Note The [TRACK STATUS] keys and [CHANNEL] faders will be paired automatically when you pair two channels. For [EQ], [EffSnd], [AuxSend], and [Pan], you can specify individually whether pairing will be enabled.

① Select the “(SelChPair) button in the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO], [EQ], or [INSERT EFFECT] pages, and press the [ENTER] key to open the “Select Channel Pair” dialog box.

② Here you can select which channels you would like to pair. Select one of the "1 2"–"5 6" button, and press the [ENTER] key so that the button is displayed with a "☐."

③ Select the functions that will be paired for the channels you selected in "Select Channel Pair." Select the "Eq," "Send," "Aux," and "Pan" function that you want to pair, and press the [ENTER] key to turn pairing "On." Press the [YES/OK] key to apply the setting.

2-5. Monitor settings

In order to monitor the sound of the D1200, you must connect monitor speakers to the [MONITOR OUT L/R] jacks, or connect headphones to the [PHONES] jack for monitoring.

To select which signals will be monitored

① Access the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Monitor" tab page.

- Normally you will select "MasterLR." Select the "MasterLR" button and press the [ENTER] key to turn it "On" (highlighted).

graph TD
    A["Testen"] --> B["Solo"]
    B --> C["Rhythm"]
    C --> D["MonitorBus"]

    K --> L["InEq1-4"]
    L --> M["Solo"]
    M --> N["Monitor"]
    N --> O["Phase"]

Note If the "Solo" function is on, it will override any settings here. Turn the "Solo" function off before making a selection.
② For mixer channels whose [TRACK STATUS] is PLAY (LED lit green), you will hear the track playback when the recorder is playing. For mixer channels whose [TRACK STATUS] is REC (LED lit red), you will hear the sound of the external input.
Note If the "AutoIn" button is "On," and the [TRACK STATUS] of a mixer channel is "REC," you will hear the sound of that track during playback, and the sound of the external input while recording and when stopped. This is useful when doing "punch in/out" recording. If "AutoIn" is "Off," you will always hear the sound of the external input.
③ Use the [MONITOR OUT LEVEL] knob to adjust the volume of the [MONITOR OUT L/R] jacks, and the [PHONES LEVEL] knob to adjust the volume of the [PHONES] jack.

2-6. Adjusting the cue level

The [CHANNEL] faders of the D1200 are used to adjust both the recording level of each track and the volume level of each channel, so the levels being recording will be the same as the monitor volume levels.

For this reason, a Cue Level function is provided so that you can monitor using a completely different mix of volume and pan settings while you perform, regardless of the master LR settings.

To adjust the Cue Level

① In the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Monitor" tab page, turn the "Cue" button "On."

Note If the "Solo" function is on, it will override any settings here. Turn the "Solo" function off before making a selection.
② Select the "Level" button and press the [ENTER] key to access the Cue Level setting screen. Select the icons for each channel, and turn the [VALUE] dial to adjust the volume level and pan that is displayed in the upper left.

2-7. Solo settings

If a "Solo" button is "On," only that signal will be sent to the monitor bus. Use this when you want to hear just one of several audio sources, or to check the send signal. The solo signal will be output from the [MONITOR OUT L/R] jacks and the [PHONES] jack.

To select a signal for soloing

① Begin by selecting the signal that you want to solo, and turn Solo on. Access the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Solo" tab page.

Select the appropriate "Solo" button, and press the [ENTER] key to switch solo "On" (highlighted) for that signal. If solo has been turned "On" for even one signal, the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] key will blink.

note You may select more than one signal for soloing.

② Adjust the monitor volume. Use the [MONITOR OUT LEVEL] knob or [PHONES LEVEL] knob to adjust the volume level.

To turn solo off

• Access the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Solo" tab page, and turn the "Solo" button(s) "Off."
• If you select the "ClearAll" button and press the [ENTER] key, all solo settings will be turned off.

To output the solo signal from master LR

You can output the solo signal from [MASTER OUT L/R] if desired. Use this when you want to output the solo signal from the monitor system connected to the [MASTER OUT L/R] jacks.

- In the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Solo" tab page, turn the "SoloToMstOut" button "On" (highlighted). However, this will automatically be turned "Off" when you leave the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] page.

3. Registering and recalling a scene

The current mixer settings can be registered as a "scene." Scenes can be recalled automatically as the song plays. You can also register frequently-used mixer settings for recall as desired, re-register the recalled settings at a different location, or edit some of the settings and overwrite them over the original scene. Scenes can be renamed, and can be sorted by their order of appearance in a song.

Up to 100 scenes can be registered in a song.

The following settings can be registered in a scene.

• EQ
• E f fect settings
• E f fSnd (effect send)
- AuxSend (auxiliary send)
• [ P AN] and [BALANCE] knobs
• [CHANNEL] faders

Note The faders and pan/balance knobs of the top panel do not actually move when a scene is recalled. However the [SCENE] "MixView" tab page lets you see the value for these settings as the scenes change.

3-1. Registering a scene

① Move to the location in the song where you want to register a scene. Use the counter or [FF]/[REW] to move ( p.32).
② Make the desired mixer settings. Adjust the [CHANNEL] faders, [PAN] knobs, EQ, and effects etc. to create a new scene.
③ To register the scene:

• Press the [STORE] key to capture the current time.
• Press the [SCENE] key. The display will indicate the scene number as "SCENE***", and the parameters will be registered.

note When a scene is registered, it is assigned the lowest unused number. You can perform step ③ even while a song is being played or recorded.

3-2. Switching scenes during playback

Here's how scenes can be automatically switched as the playback time progresses.
note Register scenes at the locations where you want the mixer settings to change. (→ "3-1. Registering a scene")

Automatically switching scenes while a song plays

① Access the [SCENE] "ReadDel" tab page, and turn "SceneRead" on.
- When this is on, the [SCENE] key will light.
② Play back the song.

Move to the location from which you want to play back, and press the [PLAY] key to play the song.

When you reach the location at which a scene was registered, the scene will change automatically.

3-3. Recalling a scene

At any time, you can manually recall the mixer settings registered in a scene, regardless of the time at which the scene was registered.

To recall the mixer settings registered in a scene

① Access the [SCENE] "ReadDel" tab page, and turn "SceneRead" off.

- When this is off, the [SCENE] key will be dark.

note If "SceneRead" is "On," it will not be possible to recall a scene that was registered at another time location.

② Recall the scene.

In the [SCENE] "ReadDel" or "MixView" tab page, move the cursor to "SceneNumber" and turn the [VALUE] dial to select a scene. The selected scene will be recalled.

3-4. Changing the time at which a scene is registered

You can change the counter location of a registered scene, so that it is selected at a different place in the song.

① Recall the scene.

As described in "3-3. Recalling a scene," select the scene whose time you want to change.

② Change the time of the scene.

- Select the "EditLoc" button and press the [ENTER] key.

- Specify the desired counter location in the dialog box, and press the [YES/OK] key.

3-5. Re-registering a scene at another time location

You can re-register the same scene at different locations.

① Recall the scene that contains the mixer settings you want to re-register.

As described in "3-3. Recalling a scene," recall the desired scene.

② Move to the location where you want to re-register the scene. (→p.32)
③ Press the [STORE] key and then the [SCENE] key.

3-6. Editing and overwriting a scene

Here's how to edit the settings of a scene and overwrite the changes onto the existing scene.

① As described in "3-3. Recalling a scene," recall the scene that you want to edit.
② Adjust the [CHANNEL] faders, [PAN] knobs, EQ, and effects etc. to the desired settings.
③ In the [SCENE] "ReadDel" tab page, make sure that the scene number you want to overwrite is selected.

- Select the "OvrWrt" button and press the [ENTER] key.

Press the [YES/OK] key to overwrite the settings for that scene number.

3-7. Deleting a scene

Here's how to delete an unwanted scene.

This operation cannot be undone.

① As described in "3-3. Recalling a scene," recall the scene that you want to delete. If you want to delete all scenes, select any of the scenes.
② In the [SCENE] "ReadDel" tab page, select the "Delete" button and press the [ENTER] key.

Verify the "Delete Scene" number shown in the upper left, and if this is the scene you want to delete, press the

3-8. Applying filtering to all scenes

Applying filters will allow you to prevent specific parameters on each channel from being affected by scene changes. This can be a very handy feature.

① In the [SCENE] "ReadDel" tab page, select the "Filter" button and press the [ENTER] key to make the display show "Select SceneFilter."

② Select the parameter(s) that you want to disable. There are two pages of settings, so use the "Next" button to view the next page.

The first page contains parameters for each channel. For example if you want the Scene Filter to prevent scene changes from affecting the pan settings of channels 1 and 2, you would turn "1," "2," and the "PanBal" button "On."

The second page contains parameters that apply to the overall mix. As in the first page, turn "On" filtering for parameters that you do not want to be affected by scene changes. Press the [YES/OK] key to apply the settings.

3-9. Using MIDI to control scenes

MIDI output

When the scene changes, a scene change message (program change) will be transmitted in the following cases.

• When you use "SceneNumber" in the [SCENE] "ReadDel" tab page to switch scenes.
• When you press the [STORE] key and [SCENE] key to register a scene.
• When "SceneRead" is "On" and the scene changes during playback or recording.

MIDI input

If "SceneRead" is "Off," scene change messages (program changes) that are received will cause the D1200 to select the scene of the corresponding number. If "SceneRead" is "On," these messages will not be received, regardless of whether the D1200 is playing, recording, or stopped.

① Connect an external MIDI device. (→p.79)
② In the [SYSTEM/USB] "MIDI" tab page, set "GlobalCh" to match the channel of the external MIDI device that will be transmitted the messages.
If you want the D1200 to transmit MIDI messages, set the [SYSTEM/USB] "MIDI" tab page "ProgChange" parameter "Trans" to "On." If you want the D1200 to receive MIDI messages, set the [SYSTEM/USB] "MIDI" tab page "ProgChange" parameter "Recv" to "On."
③ In the [SCENE] "ReadDel" tab page, set "SceneRead" to "Off"
④ Transmit a program change message from the external MIDI device to recall a scene on the D1200.
When the D1200 receives program change #0 it will recall scene "001." Program changes #0–99 correspond to scenes "001"–"100."

Effects

Overview of the effects

On the D1200 you can use up to eight insert effects that can be applied to individual analog inputs or mixer channels, two master effects that can be applied in varying amounts to the send from each channel, and a final effect that can be applied to the master LR as the last stage. Each of these effects are independent, meaning that you can simultaneously use up to eleven effect programs.

• E f fect algorithms: total of 98
• E f fect programs:

	Preset (192) User (192)
Insert effects I000, I0	01-I128 U001-U128
Master effects M000,	M001-M032 u001-u032
Final effects F000, F	001-F032 u033-u064

Preset effects contain effect programs created by professional musicians and studio engineers.

User effects can store effect programs that you created by editing a preset effect.

note It is not possible to rewrite a preset effect program.

1. Using insert effects

These effects are “inserted” directly into the signal path of either an analog input signal or a playback track. Effects can also be applied to the internal PCM rhythms if they are being routed to a mixer channel.

There are four types of insert effects. The effect programs that are available will depend on the type of effect you select. ( p.127, 154)

○ 1 in 2 out x 2, 1 in 1 out x 2 (input only)

These are mono-in/stereo-out or mono-out chain effects. You can use two of these chain effects simultaneously.

These are ideal for adding spaciousness to a lead guitar or vocal.

• When simultaneously recording guitar and bass, you can apply a Guitar Multi effect to the guitar input and a Bass Multi effect to the bass input as you record.
• When simultaneously recording two vocals, you can apply separate Vocal Multi effects to each vocal input as you record.
• When simultaneously recording vocal and guitar, you can apply a Vocal Multi to the vocal and a Guitar Multi to the guitar as you record.

○ 2 in 2 out x 2

These are stereo-in/stereo-out effects. You can use two of these effects simultaneously.

These are ideal for a stereo input sources such as a keyboard.

• When simultaneously recording a keyboard and rhythm machine, you can apply St.Chorus to the keyboard and St.Comp to the rhythm machine.
• You can apply St.Comp or St.Limiter to adjust the dynamics of drums that are recorded in stereo, or apply Reverb to create spaciousness (when playing back the track).

○ 1 in 1 out x 4

These are mono-in/mono-out chain effects. You can use four of these chain effects simultaneously.

These are ideal for sources whose stereo position is fixed, such as rhythm guitar.

- When recording four vocals simultaneously, you can apply Exciter-Comp to voices that lack impact, and Limiter-P4EQ to powerful voices.

○ 1 in 1 out x 8 (during track playback only)

Only during track playback, you can use eight mono-in/mono-out effects.

These are ideal for sources whose stereo position is fixed, such as drums.

- You can use Comp, Limiter, Gate, or Expander to adjust the dynamics of each recorded track, or apply Chorus, Phaser, or Delay.

In the case of a 24-bit song, only six of these effects can be used.

1-1. Applying insert effects while you record (analog or rhythm only)

While recording, you can apply effects to the input from instruments connected to the [INPUT 1/GUITAR IN]-[INPUT 4] analog input jacks or to the internal rhythm sounds if they are input to a mixer channel. If the optional CDRW-1 is installed, you can also apply effects to the sound from an audio CD.

note You can use a PS-1 foot switch (sold separately) instead of the [PLAY] key.

Tap tempo lets you record the tempo after a song has already been recorded. If you record tempo for a song for which you did not originally specify the tempo, you will be able to do the following things.

- Edit tracks in units of measures - Connect and synchronize external MIDI devices

① Prepare the audio for which you want to record the tempo. Record the audio from the beginning of the song.

note When recording from the beginning of the song, it is convenient to use Trigger recording. (→p.54)

② Specify the time signature of the song. If the time signature changes during the song for which you want to record tempo, create a tempo map at the location where the time signature changes.

If you want the time signature to change during the song, you must create the appropriate tempo maps. Tempo settings will play back in synchronization, but measures will become incorrectly aligned if the time signature changes do not match.

③ If you want to use a foot switch to input the tap tempo, connect an optional PS-1 foot switch to the [FOOT SWITCH] jack of the D1200.

④ Choose how you will record the tempo. In the [RHYTHM] "TmpTrk" tab page, select either "MeasTap" (tap at the beginning of each measure) or "BeatTap" (tap at each beat).

⑤ Record the tap tempo track.

- Select the "RecStart" button and press the [ENTER] key. The D1200 will enter the record-ready mode.

- When you press the [PLAY] key or a connected foot switch, the song will begin playing, and tap tempo recording will also begin. - While you listen to the playback, record the tap tempo by pressing the [PLAY] key or foot switch at the intervals you specified in step ④. The counter will be displayed while you record the tap tempo.

When using the [PLAY] key to record tap tempo, do not strike the key any more forcefully than necessary. Doing so may damage the hard disk etc.

⑥ After you have input the last tap, press the [STOP] key. For example if you are inputting four measures of a 4/4 time signature, tap four times in the case of "MeasTap" or sixteen times in the case of "BeatTap" to input up to the beginning of the fifth measure. Then press the [STOP] key. If you input taps only until mid-way through the song, the tempo of the last-input measure or beat will be automatically copied to the end of the song.

⑦ Specify the tempo track as the tempo source. Access the [RHYTHM] "SetUp" tab page, select "TempoSource," and turn the [VALUE] dial to choose "TempoTrk." Move to the beginning of the song, and press the [PLAY] key to play back the song and check the tempo.

The Recorder

1. Recording

You can connect audio sources such as guitar and keyboard to the input jacks, make mixer settings to assign these audio input sources to tracks of the recorder, and then record them. The D1200 has twelve recording/playback tracks, and each of the twelve tracks has eight virtual tracks.

The following pages explain how to record audio on these tracks.

1-1. Basic recording

Here's how to record the audio signal that you specified in "1. Inputting audio to the mixer" (→p.35).

note If you want to create a new song for recording, set refer to "1-1. Creating a new song" (→p.31).

① Check the recording mode. Access the [BOUNCE] "RecMode" tab page. Set "Select RecMode" to "Input" (=record the input audio).

② Press the [TRACK STATUS] key for the track that you want to record, to set the status to REC (LED lit red).
③ Use the [CHANNEL] fader to set the recording level.

- Press the [METER/TRACK VIEW] key.

- Select the "button and press the [ENTER] key to select "PostFaderLev," and press the [YES/OK] key.

- Slowly raise the [CHANNEL] fader, and the level meter of the input channel will move according to the level of the input signal. Adjust the level to be as

high as possible without allowing the level bar to reach "CLP."

④ Move the counter location to the point in the song where you want to begin recording. (→p.32) Start recording from the beginning of the song ("001.01.000" or "000:00.000").
⑤ Press the [REC] key (the [REC] and [PLAY] LEDs will blink).
⑥ Press the [PLAY] key (the [REC] and [PLAY] LEDs will light). Begin performing on your instrument.
⑦ When you are finished performing, press the [STOP] key (the [REC] and [PLAY] LEDs will go dark). Listen to the playback to verify that your performance was recorded correctly.

1-2. Switching the virtual track for recording

The D1200 has twelve tracks, and each of these provides eight virtual tracks, labeled a-h.

For example when you record a solo part, you can record two or more "takes," each on their own virtual track, and select the best one later. Or when bounce-recording (ping-pong recording), you can specify two unrecorded virtual tracks as the recording-destination, allowing you to combine twelve tracks of data into two tracks without erasing any existing tracks. (→p.64)

Recording on a different virtual track

① Select a virtual track.

In the [TRACK] "Vtr1-6" or "Vtr7-12" tab page, select the track that you want to record, and turn the [VALUE] dial to select an unrecorded virtual track.

② Adjust the recording level of the input device, and record.

Refer to "1-1. Analog input" (→ p.35).

1-3. Recording while you listen to other tracks play

The process of recording while you listen to other tracks play is called "overdubbing." For example you can use this to record a solo while listening to previously-recorded backing tracks.

① Check the recording mode. Access the [BOUNCE] "RecMode" tab page. For "Select RecMode," choose "Input" (= record the audio input).

② Use the [CHANNEL] fader to set the recording level. Refer to "1-1. Basic recording."

③ Select the playback tracks. Press the [TRACK STATUS] keys of the tracks that you want to hear, and set them to PLAY (LED lit green).
④ Select the recording track. Press the [TRACK STATUS] key of the track that you want to record, to set it to REC (LED blinking red).
⑤ Mute tracks that you do not want to use. For each track that you do not want to play or record, press the [TRACK STATUS] key to set it to MUTE (LED dark), so that no sound will be output by tracks that you are not using.
⑥ Adjust the recording level of the input device, and record. Refer to "1-1. Analog input" ( p.35).

Trigger recording procedure

Trigger recording is a function that initiates recording when the input volume reaches a specified level.

① Connect your input device, select a track for recording, and adjust the recording level. Refer to "1-1. Basic recording" ( p.53).
② Access the [TRIGGER] "Trigger" tab page, and turn "TriggerRec" "On" (the [TRIGGER] key will light).

③ Press the [REC] key to select record-ready mode (LED blinking).
④ Begin playing your instrument. When the input signal exceeds the threshold level ("Threshold"), recording will begin automatically.
⑤ When you are finished playing, press the [STOP] key to stop recording.

1-4. Re-recording a specific area: Punch-in/out

If you make just one mistake in a recorded performance, or are not satisfied with a portion of the performance, you can use "punch-in/out" recording to fix just that portion without having to re-record from the beginning of the song. "Punch-in" is the action of switching the song from the playback to the record mode, and "punch-out" is the action of switching from the record mode back to the playback mode.

Manual punch-in/out

Here's how you can punch-in and punch-out manually. During playback, press the [REC] key or an optional PS-1 foot switch to begin recording, and then press the [REC] key, [PLAY] key, or foot switch to stop recording.

① Connect your input device, select a track for recording, and adjust the recording level. Refer to "1-1. Basic recording" ( p.53).
② Specify the monitor output. - Access the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Monitor" tab page.

③ Move the counter to a location slightly before the point where you want to begin re-recording. (→p.32)
④ Press the [PLAY] key to begin playback. You will hear the recorded tracks play, including the recording-destination track.
⑤ At the point you want to begin re-recording, press the [REC] key. Recording will begin (manual punch-in). Now you will hear the external input source.
⑥ At the point you want to stop re-recording, press the [REC] key or [PLAY] key. Recording will stop, and playback will resume (manual punch-out). Now you will again hear the track play-back.
⑦ Press the [STOP] key to stop. When you have finished recording, move the current location to a point slightly earlier than where you began recording, and listen to the re-recorded performance.

Using a foot switch for manual punch-in/out

You can switch between playback and recording by pressing a PS-1 foot switch (sold separately).

This lets you punch-in/out while you perform, or when the D1200 is located at a distance.

① Connect a foot switch to the [FOOT SWITCH] jack.
② Access the [SYSTEM/USB] "Control" tab page.

③ Specify the function of the foot switch. Set "Func (FootSwFunction)" to "PunchIn-Out."
④ Perform steps ⑤ and ⑥ of "Manual punch-in/out," but press the foot switch instead of the [REC] key. (You may use the foot switch and [REC] key in conjunction with each other.)

note You can also use the foot switch to record from the beginning of the song. To do so, set "Func" in step ③ to "Play/Stop."

At the beginning of the song, press the [REC] key (the LED will blink), and then press the foot switch to begin recording.

Auto punch-in/out

The auto punch-in/out function automatically performs a punch-in and punch-out at pre specified locations.

① Access the [AUTO PUNCH] "AtPunch" tab page. In the [AUTO PUNCH] "AtPunch" tab page, select the "Auto Punch" button, and press the [ENTER] key to turn it

"On." This turns on the auto punch-in/out recording. The [AUTO PUNCH] key will light.

② Set the [IN/LOC1] point (punch-in) to specify the location where you want to begin recording, and set the [OUT/LOC2] point (punch-out) to specify the location where you want to stop recording. For details on how to register the [IN/LOC1] and [OUT/LOC2] locations, refer to "Registering a location to one of the Locate keys" (→p.33). In the [AUTO PUNCH] "AtPunch" tab page, you can select the "Wave" button and press the [ENTER] key to view the waveform, allowing you to set the IN and OUT points more accurately.

note The time locations you specify will overwrite the previously-specified locations for the [IN/LOC1] and [OUT/LOC2] keys.

- When you have finished making your settings, press the [YES/OK] key to return to the previous page.

⑥ Begin recording.

• When you press the [REC] key, you will move to a point earlier than the specified punch-in point (by the distance of the pre-roll time), and enter record-ready mode (LED blinking).
• When you press the [PLAY] key, playback will begin. The track will play back during the pre-roll time, and recording will begin at the punch-in (IN) point. (The [REC] LED will be lit.)

⑦ Stop recording.

- Recording will stop when you reach the punch-out (OUT) point and switch to play back. (The [REC] LED will blink.)

• After the post-roll time has elapsed, playback will stop, and you will automatically return to the point specified by the pre-roll time.

⑧ Listen to the re-recorded results.

Loop recording

When using auto punch-in/out recording, you can switch the "Loop" function on so that the IN-OUT region will be recorded repeatedly (as a loop). When you are finished recording, you can use the Undo/Redo function to compare the takes that you recorded, and select the best one.

Loop recording procedure

① Make auto punch-in/out settings. Refer to steps ①–⑤ of "Auto punch-in/out" (→p.54).
② In the [LOOP] "Loop" tab page, turn "Loop" "On."

• When you press the [REC] key, you will move to the beginning of the pre-roll time, and enter record-ready mode. (The [REC] key LED will blink.)
• P r ess the [PLAY] key to begin playback. Playback will occur during the pre-roll time, and recording will begin when you reach the IN time. (The [REC] key LED will light.)

note When you reach the OUT time, recording will end and the post-roll region will play back. (The [REC] key LED will blink.)

Note When the post-roll time ends, you will automatically move to the beginning of the pre-roll time, and the same operations will be repeated.

- Press the [STOP] key at a point outside the recording area (IN–OUT) to stop.

④ Use the Undo/Redo function to compare the recorded content, and choose the best take.

- P r ess the [UNDO] key to display the Undo list. The Undo list shows "RecordTrack" for the most recent recording (Level00) and each preceding recording (Level (= the number of loops you recorded minus 1)).

Recordings that you made before you performed loop recording will also appear in the list as "RecordTrack."

- From the Undo list, turn the [VALUE] dial to choose a recorded take. Then select the "Undo" button and press [ENTER]. The selected take will be recalled.

⑤ Listen to the recorded content.

- P r ess the [PLAY] key to play back, and listen to the recorded content. If "AutoPunch" is "On," playback will begin at the beginning of the pre-roll time, and continue to the end of the post-roll time.

- Repeat this procedure to find the best take. If you are satisfied with the selected take, press the [YES/OK] key to return to the previous screen.

Note If you want to select the most recent recording, select the "Redo" button and press the [ENTER] key to return to the "Level00" take.

Data

Whenever you switch songs or turn off the power, the D1200's Auto Save function will automatically save (to the hard disk) the songs or parameters that you recorded or edited.

This means that you do not need to perform any particular operations to save your data.

You do need to save the effect settings if you have edited effect programs.

The data saving operations explained in this section are used when you have created important data on the D1200 that you want to save on a CD-R/RW or your computer, or when you want to delete data from the hard disk to obtain more free space.

If you want to save data to your computer, you must first save the data on the USB drive of the internal hard disk, and then save that data on your computer.

You can save the following data.

• Song data
  • E f fect user data
  • W AV files: audio files in WAV format

Creating an audio CD will not save the parameter settings that were used to create the songs. To save this data, you must back it up.

4. Drive and data compatibility between models of the Digital Recording Studio series

This section discusses data compatibility between the Digital Recording Studio series models D12, D16 (version 2.0 or later), D1600, and D1200.

note Be aware of the following points regarding effect user data.

The algorithms of the D1200 differ from the algorithms of the D12/16/1600.

48: PA1: Pre Amp Simulator

49: EB1: Bass Multi 1

52: MS1: Mic Multi

If effect user data using these algorithms is restored to the D12/16/1600, it will not produce the same sound. Similarly, effect user data created on the D12/16/1600 using these three algorithms will not sound the same if it is restored to the D1200.

If an insert effect preset is used in a scene, the settings will be different when that scene is played back. You will need to edit the insert effect settings.

Using D12 data on the D1200

A CD-R/RW disc containing D12 data can be used in the same way as D1200 data.

Using D1200 data on the D12

A CD-R/RW disc containing D1200 data can be used in the same way as D12 data.

Using D16 or D1600 data on the D1200

ACD-R/RW disc containing D16 or D1600 data can be used in the same way as D1200 data. However in the case of song data or effect user data, the drive list will indicate "D16[B]," and the data for tracks 13–16 cannot be restored.

Using D1200 data on the D16 or D1600

ACD-R/RW disc containing D1200 data can be used in the same way as D16 or D1600 data. However in the case of song data or effect user data, the drive list will indicate "D12[B]."

In order to use D1200 data on the D16, you must update the D16 system to version 2 or later.

Drive

The hard disk of the D1200 is divided into a "song drive" that is used for recording and playing songs, and a "USB drive" that is used to exchange data with a computer.

Note Of the total capacity of the hard disk, the size of the USB drive is fixed at 2 GB, and the remainder is the capacity of the song drive.

graph TD
    A["D1200 Audio System"] --> B["Hard Disk"]
    B --> C["Song Drive"]
    C --> D["USB Drive"]
    D --> E["Computer"]

Perform the procedures described below if you want to erase data from a drive or CD-RW, or if an error display appears.

1. Checking the hard disk

This operation checks the song drive of the hard disk for errors, and repairs errors that are found. Execute this operation if the "DiskError" error message appears frequently. If no major errors are detected on the drive, you can continue to use the song data.

- Select the "Exec." button and press the [ENTER] key to open the dialog box.

• Use "Quick" to select how the disk will be formatted. If you turn this "On," only the system area will be initialized, and the operation will not require very much time. Select "Off" if "DiskError" is displayed frequently, or if you experience problems such as failure to recognize the disk drive even after it is formatted with "Quick" turned "On."
• If you turn the "Force" button "On," formatting will be executed even if the drive contains a protected song. If this is off when you execute formatting, and the disk contains a protected song, a message of "SongProtect" will be displayed, and the operation will be aborted.
• Press the [YES/OK] key to begin the formatting operation.
• When formatting is finished, the display will indicate "Completed." Press the [YES/OK] key.

Executing the format operation with "Quick" turned "Off" will require a substantial length of time. 40 GB: On → approximately 7 seconds; Off → approximately 8 hours

If you continue using the D1200 for an extended period, the bottom of the unit may become hot, but this is not a problem for operation. If you are touching the bottom of the D1200 and find that it has become uncomfortably hot, place the unit on a tabletop.

3. Erasing a CD-RW disc

This operation erases the data that was written on a CD-RW disc.

Erasing a disc lets you use the entire capacity of the disc, just as when it was unused (blank).

When you execute "EraseCD-RW," all data will be erased from the CD-RW disc.

"EraseCD-RW" cannot be executed on a drive other than a CD-RW drive.

① Insert the CD-RW disc into the CD-R/RW drive.

② Select "EraseCD-RW."

- Select "SelOperation," and use the [VALUE] dial to select "EraseCD-RW."

③ Execute the erase operation.

- Select the "Exec." button and press the [ENTER] key to open the dialog box.

- Use "Quick" to select how the disc will be erased. If you turn this "On," the entire CD-RW disc will be erased at high speed. Normally you will select this. If you turn this "Off," the entire CD-RW disc will be erased completely. Use this if you experience a problem such as if the disc fails to be recognized even after it has been erased with "Quick" turned On.

- Press the [YES/OK] key to begin the erasing operation.

- When formatting is finished, the display will indicate "Completed." Press the [YES/OK] key.

note CD-RW discs can also be erased in the [CD] "CDR/RW" tab page.

4. Drive capacity

This section explains how you can make the best use of the D1200's song drive capacity. For explanatory purposes, we will assume that you have recorded a song with the following structure.

Intro

A B So

oBreak

Ending

Note The Optimize Track operation described here does not need to be performed often. It is sufficient to perform this operation when the "DiskBusy" indication appears, or when you want to recover disk drive capacity after completing a song.

Example 1: You began recording on track 1 from the beginning of the song, and only played during the Intro, Break, and Ending on the first take.

Silence

Intro

Break

Ending

Silence

In this case, silence (actually, noise-level sound) will have been recorded in the A, B, and Solo sections of track 1, unnecessarily using up valuable drive space.

To keep the audio data only for the Intro, Break, and Ending that you are actually using

Execute the Optimize Track operation on track 1, from the beginning of the song to the end of the song. Set the Optimize Track "Mode" parameter to "Erase Silence," and execute. This will cause audio data to be preserved only for the actually-used regions, so that only the intro, break, and ending will occupy drive space.

    style J fill:#cfc,stroke:#333
    style K fill:#cfc,stroke:#333
    style L fill:#fcc,stroke:#333

Example 2: You began recording on track 1 from the beginning of the song, and played the Intro, A, B, and Break during the first take, and then recorded a second take to overwrite A' and B'.

graph TD
    A["1st take"] --> B["Intro"]
    B --> C["A"]
    C --> D["B"]
    D --> E["Break"]
    F["1st take"] --> G["Intro"]
    G --> H["A'"]
    H --> I["B'"]
    I --> J["Break"]
    K["Recorded second take"] --> L["↓"]
    style A fill:#f9f,stroke:#333
    style F fill:#f9f,stroke:#333
    style K fill:#f9f,stroke:#333

In this case, A and B of the first take remain "beneath" A' and B' of track 1, in order to preserve the data for Undo and also because they are a continuous piece of audio data with the Intro and Break. This means that Intro, A+A', B+B', and Break are occupying disk space.

To erase A and B that remain from the first take, and recover disk space

Execute the Optimize Track command on track 1 from the beginning to the end of the song. When this is executed, only the audio data of the 1st take Intro, 2nd take A', 2nd take B', and 1st take Break will be kept. This means that the 1st take A and 1st take B data will no longer occupy disk space.

graph TD
    A["Intro"] --> B["A"]
    B --> C["B"]
    C --> D["Break"]
    style A fill:#f9f,stroke:#333
    style B fill:#f9f,stroke:#333
    style C fill:#f9f,stroke:#333
    style D fill:#f9f,stroke:#333
    note right of D "OptimizeTrack"

Example 3: You recorded A and B on track 1 as the first take. As the second take, you overwrite-recorded the Intro, A', B', and Break.

graph TD
    A["A"] --> B["B"]
    style A fill:#f9f,stroke:#333
    style B fill:#ccf,stroke:#333
    note1["1st take"] --> A
    note2["1st take"] --> B
    note3["2nd take"] --> Intro["Intro"]
    note3 --> A'A'
    note3 --> B'B'
    note4["Break"] --> B'

In this case, the first take A and B remain "beneath" A' and B', but since the audio data of take 1 is not used at all once you finished recording take 2, there is no need to execute the optimize command.

Deleting the Undo data

Even if you use the drive space efficiently as described above (examples 1, 2, 3), the old data will be kept on the drive for use by the Undo function.

If you want to delete this Undo data, you can restart the D1200. When the D1200 is restarted, all Undo data will be deleted, and the unused drive space will be recovered.

Sharing event data

If you use the Copy Track operation to copy track data to another track (e.g., virtual track) or another song, this audio data will be shared, so that the drive capacity will not decrease. However if you execute the Optimize Track operation on the copy-destination or copy-source track, new audio data will be created, and this will mean that a greater amount of drive capacity will be used than before the operation was executed.

In the case of example 2, if you copy the first take to another track before you record the second time, executing the Optimize Track operation will not delete the "A" and "B" regions of the first take, and audio data for the "Intro" and "Break" regions will be newly created, meaning that a greater amount of drive capacity will be used.

USB

What is USB?

USB stands for Universal Serial Bus, and is an interface for transferring data between a computer and peripheral devices.

USB peripheral devices such as hard disks or CD-R/RW drives cannot be connected to the D1200.

The D1200 has a [USB] connector which you can connect directly to your computer, and save data to your computer from the USB drive area of the D1200's internal hard disk. Using the USB drive, the following types of data can be saved to your computer or loaded from your computer.

Song data

This is data for each track, as well as data such as pan and effect settings. Since this data is in the D1200's own unique format, it cannot be played or edited on your computer or any device other than the D1200. In order to play this data, you must restore it to the D1200.

Effect user data

This is the data that has been stored in the effect program user area. Since this data is in the D1200's own unique format, it cannot be edited on your computer. In order to use this effect data, you must restore it to the D1200.

WAV files: WAV format audio files

This is audio track data that was copied to the clipboard.

1. Saving data to your computer

Do not format the D1200's hard disk from your computer. The hard disk may be formatted only by the D1200 itself.

In order to use the D1200 with Windows 98, you must install a device driver. For details on obtaining and installing the device driver, refer to the Korg website (www.korg.com).

MIDI

What is MIDI?

MIDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, and is a world-wide standard by which performance data can be exchanged between electronic musical instruments and computers.

1. MIDI connections

Use special MIDI cables to transfer MIDI data. Connect these cables between the MIDI connectors of the D1200 and the MIDI connectors of the external MIDI device with which you want to transfer data.

MIDI IN connector: Receives MIDI messages from another MIDI device. Connect this to the MIDI OUT connector of the external device.

MIDI OUT connector: Transmits MIDI messages from the D1200. Connect this to the MIDI IN connector of the external device.

MIDI channel settings

MIDI uses sixteen channels (1–16) to independently convey data to multiple MIDI devices. If the transmitting device is sending data on MIDI channel "1," the receiving device must also be set to MIDI channel "1" in order to receive this data. ( p.101: [SYSTEM/USB] "MIDI" tab page "GlobalCh")

2. MIDI messages used by the D1200

Note On (Note, velocity), aftertouch, pitch-bend: The D1200 uses these messages to control effects.

Program change: The D1200 uses these messages to switch scenes.

Control change: The D1200 uses these messages to control mixer and effect parameters.

MMC (MIDI Machine Control): MMC messages can be transmitted from the D1200 to control an external MMC-compatible sequencer or recorder. MMC messages can be transmitted from an external sequencer or recorder to control the D1200.

MTC (MIDI Time Code): MTC messages can be transmitted from the D1200 to synchronize an external sequencer or recorder. The D1200 can also receive MTC messages and synchronize to them.

About the MIDI implementation chart

The owner's manual of each MIDI device includes a MIDI implementation chart. This chart shows the types of MIDI message that the device can transmit and receive. When using two MIDI devices together, compare their MIDI implementation charts to verify that the devices will be able to communicate as you expect.

* A detailed explanation of the D1200's MIDI functionality can be found in the separate MIDI implementation. To obtain a copy of the MIDI implementation, contact your Korg distributor.

3. Using MIDI

Controlling the D1200 from a MIDI sequencer

Here's how you can use MMC messages transmitted from a MIDI sequencer to control D1200 operations such as stop, play, fast-forward, rewind, record, and locate.

Note You must use a sequencer that supports MMC. These operations cannot be performed from a sequencer that does not support MMC.

① Connect the MIDI cables. Use a MIDI cable to connect your MIDI sequencer's MIDI OUT connector to the D1200's [MIDI IN] connector.
② Make settings on your MIDI sequencer so that it will transmit MMC to control an external device. For details, refer to the owner's manual of your MIDI sequencer.
③ Turn on MMC reception. In the [SYSTEM/USB] "MMC" tab page, set "Select MMCMode" to "Receive."

④ Set the correct device ID. Set "MMCDevID" to the MMC device ID of your MIDI sequencer.

note Since some MIDI sequencers indicate the MMC device ID in a different way, the ID may not necessary be a number.

⑤ Perform operations on your external MIDI sequencer. When you perform stop, play, fast-forward, rewind, record, and locate operations on your MIDI sequencer, the D1200 will be controlled. (For details, refer to the manual of your MIDI sequencer.)

Note You can transmit MTC (MIDI Time Code) or MIDI Clock messages from the D1200 to control the timing of your MIDI sequencer, while the sequencer controls stop, play, fast-forward, rewind, record, and locate operations on the D1200.

Synchronizing two D1200 units

Here's how you can make two D1200 units play back in synchronization. One D1200 will be the master, and the other will be the slave.

① Set the master D1200 so that it will transmit MMC and MTC.

In the [SYSTEM/USB] "Sync" tab page, set "Select MIDI SyncMode" to "MTC Mstr." In the [SYSTEM/USB] "MMC" tab page, set "Select MMC Mode" to "Transmit."

For this example, set "MMC DevID" to "10."

② Set the slave D1200 so that it will receive MMC and MTC. In the [SYSTEM/USB] "Sync" tab page, set "Select MIDI SyncMode" to "MTC Slave." In the [SYSTEM/USB] "MMC" tab page, set "Select MMC Mode" to "Receive." Set "MMC DevID" to the same setting as the master ("10"). On the slave D1200, press the [PLAY] key to enter play-ready mode.
Note If you do not want the slave D1200 to receive mixer control messages, you can either set the master D1200 so that it will not transmit these messages, or set the slave D1200 so that it will not receive these messages (→ "Using MIDI for mixer control").
③ Press the [PLAY] key on the master D1200. The slave D1200 will receive time code, and will begin playing as soon as it achieves synchronization with the master D1200.
note It may take several seconds for synchronization to be achieved.

Using MIDI for mixer control

In the [SYSTEM/USB] "MIDI" tab page, you can set "Control Change: Trans" or "Recv" to "ON" so that the D1200 will transmit or receive mixer parameters.

Recording the D1200's mixer control messages

Here's how D1200 mixer operation data can be recorded on an external MIDI sequencer. Connect the D1200 and MIDI sequencer as follows.

① Make synchronization settings on the D1200 and external MIDI sequencer. Set the D1200 to be the master, and the external MIDI sequencer to be the slave. Make settings so that the MIDI sequencer will synchronize to the MIDI clock or MTC messages transmitted from the D1200. ( p.102)
② Enable control change transmission from the D1200. In the [SYSTEM/USB] "MIDI" tab page, turn the "Mixer Control" setting "Control Change: Trans" to "ON."

③ Put the external MIDI sequencer in record-ready mode. The D1200's mixer control data is transmitted on MIDI channels 1–12, corresponding to tracks 1–12. Make settings on your external MIDI device so that it will record all MIDI channels 1–12. (For details, refer to the owner's manual of your MIDI sequencer.)
Note For details on the parameters, refer to the MIDI implementation. To obtain a copy of the MIDI implementation, contact your Korg distributor.
④ Begin recording.

Press the D1200's [PLAY] key to begin playback, and the external MIDI sequencer will begin recording in synchronization. If you now operate the mixer parameters (faders, pan, EQ etc.), the corresponding control change messages will be transmitted from the D1200 and will be recorded on the external MIDI sequencer.

⑤ Stop the D1200. When you press the D1200's [STOP] key to stop play-back, the external MIDI device will also stop recording. The D1200's mixer parameter operations have now been recorded on the external MIDI device.

Using MIDI to control the D1200's mixer

Here's how the mixer control data that was recorded in "Recording the D1200's mixer control messages" can be transmitted back to the D1200 to control its mixer. Make connections as described in step ① of "Controlling the D1200 from a MIDI sequencer."

① Make synchronization settings for the D1200 and the external MIDI sequencer. Make the settings described in step ① of "Recording D1200 mixer control data."
② Enable control change reception by the D1200. In the [SYSTEM/USB] "MIDI" tab page, set the "Mixer-Control" parameter "Control Change: Recv" to "ON."
③ Put the external MIDI sequencer in play-ready mode.
④ Start playback on the D1200. When you press the D1200's [PLAY] key to begin play-back, the external MIDI sequencer will begin playing in synchronization. The previously-recorded mixer control data will be transmitted from the MIDI sequencer, and the mixer settings of the D1200 will change.

Upgrading the system

1. Downloading the system file

The most recent system file can be downloaded from the Korg website (www.korg.com). For details on the procedure, refer to the Korg website.

Upgrading via CD-ROM/R/RW

Insert the media containing the system file into the CDRW-1.

Upgrading via USB

Use a USB cable to connect the D1200 to your computer, and copy the system file to the root folder (the same location as the KORG folder) of the USB drive.

2. Upgrading the system

① Load the system file.

In the [SYSTEM/USB] "DiskUtil" tab page, use "SelOperation" to choose either "LoadSystem/C" if loading from a CD-ROM/R/RW, or "LoadSystem/U" if loading from the USB drive.

② Execute loading of the system file.

Press the "Exec." button. In response to "AreYouSure?," press the [YES/OK] key to begin loading.

If the power is turned off or fails due to an unexpected accident while the system is being loaded, the D1200 may no longer operate correctly. If this occurs, contact your Korg distributor.

③ If the system file was loaded correctly, the D1200 will begin updating the system.

The [TRACK STATUS] LEDs will successively light from 1 to 11/12.

First the green LEDs will successively light from CH1 to CH11/12, and then the red LEDs will successively light from CH1 to CH11/12. Then the D1200 will automatically restart, and will begin operating with the new system.

If the system file is found to be invalid, the [TRACK STATUS] LED will not light, and the D1200 will restart.

After the D1200 restarts, perform the system update once again. If the update fails again, please contact your Korg distributor.

TmpTrk: Create a tempo track

There are two ways to record the tempo track.

- Record MIDI clock

You can record MIDI clock data from an external sequencer, in order to synchronize with the external sequencer data.

- Record tap tempo

If you do not know the tempo of the audio that is recorded on the D1200, you can record tap tempo data so that you will be able to manage and edit the audio data in units of measures.

For the procedure refer to p.51.

The above two types of tempo track cannot be maintained simultaneously; only the last-recorded type of tempo data will be held in the tempo track. If the memory becomes full while recording tempo data, recording will end automatically.

1. Select RecTempoTrack Type ...... [MIDIClock, MeasTap, BeatTap]

Selects the type of tempo track to be recorded.

MIDIClock: The tempo track will be created by recording MIDI clock data from a song created on an external sequencer.

MeasTap: The tempo track will be created by tapping at the beginning of each measure.

BeatTap: The tempo track will be created by tapping at the beginning of each beat.

2. RecStart....

Begin recording the tempo track.

MIDI: MIDI settings

On the D1200 you can use MIDI to do the following things.

• Control effects ( p.44, 87)
- Synchronize with a sequencer or other MIDI device ( p.51)
- Switch scenes ( p.39)
- Use control changes to control mixer parameters

1. GlobalCh(GlobalChannel) .....[01...16]

Specifies the global MIDI channel.

If the D1200 is connected via MIDI to an external MIDI device, the D1200 will be able to exchange MIDI messages with the external device if its "GlobalCh" is set to match the MIDI channel of the external device.

Make this setting when you want to do the following things.

• Set "Device" to a MIDI message other than "Pedal," and control an effect from an external device.
• Use program change messages to transmit or receive D1200 scene changes.

2. ProgramChange: Trans....[On, Off]

Switches program change message transmission on/off. Program change messages will be sent when you switch scenes or execute a store or recall operation.

3. ProgramChange: Recv..... [On, Off]

Control change messages transmitted from the D1200 can be recorded on an external MIDI sequencer.

5. ControlChange: Recv ...... [On, Off]

Switches control change reception on/off. Control change messages recorded on an external MIDI sequencer can be received by the D1200 to control the corresponding mixer parameters.

For details on the parameters that can be controlled, refer to the MIDI implementation chart ( p.160).

Sync: Synchronization settings

You can synchronize the D1200 with an external MIDI sequencer to make D1200 audio tracks play along with an external MIDI sound module.

"Synchronization" means that the D1200 and the external MIDI device will use the same clock signal to play back at the identical timing.

The device that outputs the synchronization clock is called the "master," and the device that receives this clock is called the "slave." The D1200 can function either as the master or slave.

1. Select MIDISync Mode ...... [MTC Mstr, MTC Slave, ClockMstr, Off]

Selects the synchronization signal that will be transmitted and received from the [MIDI IN/OUT] connectors. MTC Mstr: The D1200 will function as an MTC30NDF (MIDI Time Code 30 non-drop frame) master device.

MTC Slave: The D1200 will function as an MTC30NDF (MIDI Time Code 30 non-drop frame) slave device.

ClockMstr: The D1200 will transmit MIDI Clock.

Off: The D1200 will not transmit or receive synchronization signals.

2. MTC RecvErrorLevel.....[0...9]

Specifies the level of tolerance with which the incoming MTC data will be checked when "Select MIDISync Mode" is set to "MTC Slave"

If due to some problem, the MTC data is not received in continuous succession, the D1200 will detect that there is a problem with the MTC data, and may cease synchronization and stop playback. If this occurs, you can lower the "MTC RecvErrorLevel" so that synchronized playback will continue even if slight problems occur with MTC reception.

note If you set this to "0," synchronization playback will not stop even if a problem occurs.

If you are synchronizing with a device other than the D1200 as the MTC master, incompatibilities between the devices may cause synchronization problems unless you play back from the beginning of the song.

MMC: MMC settings

The D1200 can transmit and receive MMC (MIDI Machine Control) messages.

This means that when synchronizing two 1200 units, or when using the D1200 with a MMC-compatible MIDI sequencer, you can control operations such as song playback, stop, and fast-forward from the master device.

Some MIDI devices may not support the MMC functionality of the D1200. For details on the MMC functionality of the D1200, refer to the MIDI implementation.

1. Select MMC Mode ....[Transmit, Receive, Off]

Switches MMC transmission/reception on/off.

Transmit: The D1200 will transmit MMC.

Receive: The D1200 will receive MMC.

Off: The D1200 will not use MMC.

2. MMCDevID(MMCDeviceID)..... [000...127]

Specifies the device ID that will be used to transmit and receive MMC.

In order to transmit or receive MMC, you must use a MIDI cable to connect the D1200 and the external MIDI device, set the two devices to the same Device ID, and make the appropriate setting in "Select MMC Mode."

If you set the device ID to "127," the D1200 will receive MMC messages of any ID number, and will transmit MMC messages using ID 127, to which all devices will respond.

TRIGGER

Trigger recording is a function that automatically starts (triggers) recording when the volume of the input signal exceeds the threshold level.

Trigger: Settings for trigger recording

1. TriggerRec..... [On, Off]

Switches the trigger recording function on/off. TriggerRec:On On: When in record-ready mode, recording will begin when the input signal exceeds the threshold level. If this is "On," the [TRIGGER] key will light. Turn "TriggerRec" "On," and then press the [REC] key (LED blinking) to enter record-ready mode. When the input signal to a channel whose [TRACK STATUS] key is set to record exceeds the threshold level, recording will begin automatically. TriggerRec:Off Off: Trigger recording will not occur.

Note Even if this is turned "On," recording will not begin if the input level does not exceed the threshold level while in record-ready mode. In this case, press the [STOP] key or [REC] key to cancel record-ready mode, and then adjust the "Threshold" setting.

2. Threshold.....[000...100]

Specifies the threshold level for the input signal at which recording will be triggered when the trigger recording function is used. Recording will begin when the input level exceeds this setting.

note Normally you should set this as low as possible without allowing recording to be triggered by noise. The appropriate level will depend on the input source. Re-adjust this setting if recording begins too early or too late.

3. PreTrigTime.....[000...700ms]

Specifies the length of sound prior to the record-start time that will be captured when using trigger recording. Trigger recording will start recording when the input signal exceeds the "Threshold" level, but depending on the threshold setting and on the type of source, the initial attack of the first note may be lost. In such cases, you can set the "PreTrigTime" so that the lower-level portion

of the sound that precedes the actual start of recording will also be recorded.

This is not valid at the beginning of the song. Also, if you use trigger recording to continue recording after the end of a previously-recorded track, a PreTrigTime setting other than "000 ms" will cause the corresponding length of the previously-recorded sound to be lost.

SCRUB

Here you can switch the Scrub, Play From/Play To, and Slow Play functions on/off.

The setting will alternate between On/Off each time you press the [SCRUB] key.

By using these functions, you can set Locate or Mark times easily and precisely while viewing the waveform.

The following functions will be available when the [SCRUB] key is on (LED lit).

• Scrub function: Turn the [VALUE] dial to play back the track data. Use this to find a specific location in the song while you listen to the sound. This method is similar to manually rotating an analog record on a turntable while you listen to the sound to find a desired location.
• Play From function: When you press the [PLAY] key, playback will begin from the location at which you are currently stopped, and will continue for two seconds. Then playback will stop, and you will return to the location at which playback began.
• Play To function: When you hold down the [STOP] key and press the [PLAY] key, playback will begin from a location two seconds earlier than where you are currently stopped, and will continue to that location.
  Note By using the Play From function in conjunction with the Play To function, you can find a time location with greater accuracy.

• Slow Play function: When you press the [FF] key, half-speed playback will begin from the location at which you are currently stopped. Press the [STOP] key to stop playback and return to the previous location.
  Note The sound will play slowly, at a pitch one octave lower than normal. You can use this function by itself or in conjunction with a pitch shifter to learn difficult or rapidly-played phrases.

The content of the list are maintained until the next recording or track editing pattern. When you record or edit, the data will be deleted for levels subsequent to executing the last undo. The contents of the list will also be deleted when you select a different song, and record or edit.

The hard disk of the D1200 maintains an operation history for up to the last 99 recording and editing operations, letting you use the Undo function to return to an earlier state of your work. This means that old data that no longer exists in a track will remain on the disk with-

out being deleted. This will consume disk space, and may cause the available recording time to appear shorter. In such cases you can recover this disc capacity by turning off the power of the D1200 to delete the Undo history.

Controls the strength of the attack that is characteristic of a compressor.

22: DY2: St.Limiter (Stereo Limiter)

The Limiter regulates the input signal level. It is similar to the Compressor, except that the Limiter compresses only signals that exceed the specified level to lower unnecessary peak signals. The Limiter applies a peaking-type EQ to the trigger signal (which controls the degree of the Limiter effect), allowing you to set any band width to be covered. This effect is a stereo limiter. You can link left and right channels, or use each channel individually.

Envelop (Envelope Select) .....L/RMix, L Only, Selects from linking both channels, controlling only from left channel, only from the right channel, or controlling each channel individually

Ratio (Ratio) .....1.0:1...50.0:1, Inf:1 Sets the signal compression ratio

Thrshl (Threshold [dB]) .....-40...0dB Sets the level above which the compressor is applied

Attack (Attack) .....1...100 Sets the attack time

Relse (Release) .....1...100 Sets the release time

GLevel (Gain Adjust [dB]) .....-Inf, Sets the output gain -38...+24dB

SPEQ (Side PEQ Insert) .....Off, On Toggles between on/off of the trigger signal's EQ

Triggr (Trigger Monitor) .....Off, On Switches between effect output monitor and trigger signal monitor

Mix (Wet/Dry) .....Dry, 1:99...99:1, Wet Sets the balance between the effect and dry sounds

Fc (Side PEQ Cutoff [Hz]) .....20...12.0kHz Sets the EQ center frequency for the trigger signal

Q (Q) .....0.5...10.0 Sets the EQ bandwidth for the trigger signal

Gain (Gain [dB]) .....-18.0...+18.0 Sets the EQ gain for the trigger signal

:Envelope Select

When "L/R Mix" is selected for this parameter, the left and right channels are linked to control the Limiter using the mixed signal. If "L Only" (or "R Only") is selected, the left and right channels are linked, and the Limiter is controlled via only the left (or right) channel.

With "indivi", the left and right channels control the Limiter individually.

: Ratio, : Threshold [dB], : Gain Adjust [dB]

This parameter sets the signal compression "Ratio". Compression is applied only when the signal level exceeds the "Threshold" value. In the case of the limiter, applying compression will lower the overall level, so you should use "Gain Adjust" to make adjustments.

: Attack, : Release

These parameters set the attack time and release time. A higher attack time will cause the compression to be applied more slowly.

: Side PEQ Insert, : Side PEQ Cutoff [Hz], : Q, : Gain [dB]

These parameters are used to set the EQ applied to the trigger signal.

The Limiter determines whether the compression is applied or not, based on the post-EQ trigger signal. Setting the equalizer allows you to set the Limiter to respond to any frequency band.

: Trigger Monitor

Setting this parameter "On" will cause the trigger signal to be output, instead of the effect sound. Use this parameter to check the trigger signal with EQ applied.

Usually, set this to "Off."

23: DY3: Multiband Limiter

This effect applies the Limiter to the low range, mid range, and high range of the input signal. You can control dynamics for each range to adjust the sound pressure of the low range, mid range, and high range in a different way from the EQ.

Ratio (Ratio)	1.0:1...50.0:1, Inf:1 Sets the signal compression ratio
Thrshl (Threshold [dB])	-40...0dB Sets the level above which the compressor is applied
Attack (Attack)	1...100 Sets the attack time
Relse (Release)	1...100 Sets the release time
LoOfst (Low Offset [dB])	-40...0dB Sets the low range gain of trigger signal
MdOfst (Mid Offset [dB])	-40...0dB Sets the mid range gain of trigger signal
HiOfst (High Offset [dB])	-40...0dB Sets the high range gain of trigger signal
GLevel (Gain Adjust [dB])	-Inf, -38...+24dB Sets the output gain
Mix (Wet/Dry)	Dry, 1:99...99:1, Wet Sets the balance between the effect and dry sounds

: Low Offset [dB], : Mid Offset [dB], : High Offset [dB]

These parameters set the gain of the trigger signal.

For example, if you do not want to apply compression to the high range, reduce the "High Offset" value down below the "Threshold" level. In this way, the high range limiter will not respond, and compression will not be applied.

24: DY4: St.Gate (Stereo Gate)

This effect mutes the input signal if its level is lower than the specified level. It also reverses the on and off operation of the gate, and uses Note On and Off messages to turn the gate on and off.

Envelop (Envelope Select) ..... L/RMix, L Only, Selects from Control via the modulation
	R Only source, mixing the left and right signals,Only left, and Only right
Polity (Polarity) .....+, - Switches between non-reversed andreversed Gate on/off
Thrshl (Threshold) .....0...100 Sets the level to which the Gate isapplied
Attack (Attack) .....1...100 Sets the attack time
Relse (Release) .....1...100 Sets the release time
DTime (Delay Time [msec]) ..... 0...100ms Sets the delay time of the gate input
Mix (Wet/Dry) ..... Dry, 1:99...99:1, Wet Sets the balance between the effect anddry sounds

With "Envelope Select" = "L/R Mix," the left and right channel signal mixture will trigger the gate on/off. When "L Only" or "R

Only" is selected, the gate is controlled by either of the channel signals.

: Polarity

This parameter reverses the Gate on/off operation. With a negative value, the gate is closed when the input signal level exceeds the Threshold.

:Attack, :Release

The Attack and Release parameters set the Gate attack time and release time.

: Delay Time

This parameter sets the delay time of the Gate input. If the sound has a very fast attack, increase the delay time so that the signal will be input after the Gate is opened.

25: DY5: St. Exciter/Enhancer (Stereo Exciter/Enhancer)

This effect is a combination of the Exciter, which adds a punch to the sound and the Enhancer, which adds spread and presence.

Blend (Exciter Blend) ...... -100...+100 Sets the intensity (depth) of the Exciter effect

Empha (Emphatic Point) ...... 0...140 Sets the frequency to be emphasized

HEQG (Pre HEQ Gain [dB]).-15.0...+15.0dB Sets the gain of High EQ

Mix (Wet/Dry) ......Dry, 1:99...99:1, Wet Sets the balance between the effect and dry sounds

: Exciter Blend

This parameter sets the depth (intensity) of the Exciter effect. Positive values give a frequency pattern (to be emphasized) different from negative values.

: Emphatic Point

This parameter sets the frequency to be emphasized. Higher values will emphasize lower frequencies.

: Enhancer Dly L [msec], : Enhancer Dly R [msec]

These parameters set the delay time for the Enhancer left and right channel. Specifying a slightly different delay time for the left and right channel will add a stereo image, depth, and width to the sound.

26: DY6: St.Decimator (Stereo Decimator)

This effect creates a rough sound like a cheap sampler by lowering the sampling frequency and data bit length. You can also simulate noise unique to a sampler (aliasing).

LPF (Pre LPF)....Off, On Selects whether the harmonic noise caused by a decrease in sampling frequency is generated or not

Fs (Sampling Frequency [Hz]) ....1.0k...44.1k Sets the sampling frequency

Bit (Resolution) ...... 4..24 Sets the data bit length

Speed (LFO Frequency [Hz]) .... 0.02...20.0Hz Sets the LFO speed

*Depth (Depth).... 0...100 Sets the depth of the sampling frequency modulation

HiDamp (High Damp [%]) ...... 0...100 Sets the ratio of cut of the high range

Level (Output Level).... 0...100 Sets the output level

Mix (Wet/Dry) ....Dry, 1:99...99:1, Wet Sets the balance between the effect and dry sounds

: Pre LPF

If a sampler with a very low sampling frequency receives very high-pitched sound that could not be heard during playback, it could generate pitch noise that is unrelated to the original sound. Set "Pre LPF" to "On" to prevent this noise from being generated. If you set the "Sampling Frequency" to about "3kHz" and set "Pre LPF" to "Off," you can create a sound like a ring modulator.

: Resolution, : Output Level

If you set a smaller value for the "Resolution" parameter, the sound may be distorted. The volume level may also be changed. Use "Output Level" to adjust the level.

Effects within multi-effect programs GT1-VO2, and their parameters

Here are explanations of the parameters of each effect in the multi-effect chains listed above.

Dist (Distortion)

This effect distorts the input sound

Type (DriveType).....Tube, Crunch, Scream, Selects the drive type HotBox, Higain, Valve, Crush, Scoop, Fuzz

Drive (Drive)....1...100 Sets the degree of distortion

Treble (Treble)....-15.0...+15.0 Sets the high-frequency tone

Level (Level)....0...100 Sets the output level

Drive

This effect models a compact effect unit or amp head.

Type (DriveType)	*1 Drive type
Drive (DriveGain)	1-100 Depth of distortion
Level (Level)	0-100 Output level
Tube (TubeType)	SS, 1-99, Buml Vacuum tube characteristics
Bias (TubeBias)	0-100 Vacuum tube bias level

*1: TubeOD, Classic, FatDist, Metal, Seattle, BigFuzz, TopBst, US. HiG, B. Stack, Direct

* The Tube parameter lets you vary the way in which the sound is distorted by vacuum tubes. It simulates the way that distortion is influenced by the amplitude, number of vacuum tubes, and their age. As you increase the value of this parameter, non-linear distortion will increase, and the overtone structure will change. It is best to raise the Drive value, and then adjust the Tube value. * The Bias parameter adjusts the bias point of the vacuum tubes that distort the sound. In conjunction with the Tube parameter, this will vary the overtone structure. The Bias parameter will have a greater effect when the Tube setting is high.

NR (Noise Reduction)

This effect suppresses noise.

Thrsh (Threshold)

-40.0...-1.0 Sets the level at which the effect begins to apply

NR2 (Noise Reduction2)

This effect reduces the noise. It is optimized specifically for use in a pre-amp chain.

Thrshl (Threshold)	-40.0	-0.0 Level at which noise reduction begins to apply
Decay (Decay)	0	20 Decay time

* Threshold must be adjusted according to the input level. Since the input level of a guitar will differ depending on whether it has single-coil or humbucking pickups, adjust the input trim to an appropriate level before you adjust Threshold. For a single-coil guitar, leave the trim set to approximately -10 at a point where the noise is not too loud, and then adjust Threshold so that the sound is not cut off unnaturally. Since NR2 is optimized specifically for pre-amp, it operates differently than NR.

Comp (Compressor/Limiter)

S.Dly (Stereo Delay)

This is a variation of "Delay" that allows two channels of simultaneous input. The parameters are the same as for "Delay."

Pitch (Pitch shifter)

This effect shifts the pitch of the input signal. You can choose from three types: fast response, minimum tonal change, and a setting between these two. Since a delay with feedback is also provided, you can create special effects in which the pitch progressively steps upward (or downward).

Mode (Mode)......Slow, Medium, Fast	Switches Pitch Shifter mode
*Pitch (Pitch Shift [1/2tone])......-24...+24	Sets the pitch shift amount in steps of a semitone

HiDamp (High Damp [%])......0...100	Sets the damping amount in the high range
Mix (Wet/Dry) ...... Dry, 1:99...99:1, Wet	Sets the balance between the effect and dry sounds

: Mode

This switches the operating mode of the pitch shifter. "Slow" will produce the least tonal change. "Fast" will provide the fastest response. "Medium" is between these two. It is best to use "Fast" when only a small amount of pitch shift is needed, and "Slow" when you wish to shift the pitch by a large amount.

: Mode, Fine

If Cntrl is controlling Pitch and you change Modes or the Fine tuning, you must once again use Cntrl to readjust the Max and Min parameters.

: Feedback Position Select, : Feedback

When "Feedback Position Select" is set to "Pre," the output of the pitch shifter will be once again sent back to the pitch shifter. This means that if "Feedback" is raised, the pitch will continue stepping up (or down) each time feedback is repeated.

If "Feedback Position Select" is set to "Post," the feedback will not pass through the pitch shifter, so that raising "Feedback" will cause the pitch-shifted sound to be repeated without further pitch change.

MicSim (Mic Simulator)

The mic simulator is a modeling effect that can transform a sound recorded on a conventional dynamic mic, giving it the character of a sound that was recorded on an expensive condenser mic, special studio mic, or vintage mic.

InMic (Input Mic Type)......Vo.Dy, Mlt.Dy, Line Selects the mic that was used for recording

OutMic (Output Mic Type)...... Vnt.Dy, Mlt.Cn, Selects the mic to be simulatedPc.Cn, Whale,Vo.Cn, Vo.Tb,BDr.Dy

Set (Setting)...... Close, On, Off, Far Mic setting

Trim (Trim)...... 0...100 Sets the adjustment level

: Input Mic Type

Vo.Dy A dynamic mic frequently used for vocals that brings the sound to the forefront and is also resistant to popping and feedback. Mlt.Dy A dynamic mic usable for a wide range of applications including most instruments and vocals, with a crisp and well defined character.

: Output Mic Type

Vnt.Dy A simulation of a vintage mic known for its warm and rich tone, and is ideal for vocals.

Mlt.Cn A simulation of a general-purpose studio condenser mic with a wide range from low to high that is ideal for most instruments.

Pc.Cn A simulation of a small condenser mic for instruments. It has a distinctive high range, and is ideal for drum overdubs and for acoustic guitar.

Whale A simulation of a dynamic mic with clarity and a sense of power. Ideal for drum sounds.

Vo.Cn A simulation of a standard studio condenser mic that is ideal for vocals, acoustic instruments, and narrations.

Vo.Tb A simulation of a vintage tube mic that is ideal for vocals.

BDr.Dy A simulation of a fairly large dynamic mic that is ideal for bass drum sounds etc. that include the sense of air pressure characteristic of a close-mic recording.

: Set

This switches the location of the mic. "Close" or "On" settings will simulate the proximity effect that boosts the low range, so you will need to use "Trim" to adjust the overall level.

Insert (1in1outx4)

These algorithms can be selected for an insert effect when

"1in1outx4" is selected as "Select Eff Type."

Effect Control

Cntrl (Control)

Select the parameter that will be controlled by an expression pedal or an external MIDI controller, and specify the range of parameter values for control.

Param (Parameter)	** Name of parameter to be controlled
Max	*** Maximum value of parameter to be controlled
Min	*** Minimum value of parameter to be controlled

:Param

Select the parameter to be controlled. The parameters that can be selected will differ depending on the program.

For example, the "Cho/Fl-Depth" selection for "Param" will control the "Depth" parameter of the Cho/Fl. When this is "Off," control will not occur.

: Max, : Min

Specify the upper and lower limits of the range in which the parameter value will be controlled. By exchanging the "Max" and "Min" values, you can (for example) reverse the effect that occurs when a pedal is advanced and released.

The available values will depend on the effect. "Max" and "Min" will not be displayed when "Param" is set to "Off" or "Wah."

Using a pedal to control wah

① As explained in "5. Controlling an effect from an external device" (→p.44), make settings for "Device" etc. and select an effect program that provides a wah.
② Press the "(EffectIcon)" button for "Cntrl," and set "Param" to "Wah."
③ Press the "(EffectIcon)" button for "Wah," and set "Mode" to "Pedal."

Appendix

Troubleshooting

Nothing appears in the display

□ Is the power of the D1200 turned off? (→p.15)
□ Is the contrast adjusted correctly? (→p.16)

No sound

☐ Is the power of the D1200 or a connected device turned off? ( p.15)
□ Have the [MASTER] fader or [PHONES] knob been lowered?
□ Has the channel volume level been lowered? If you have been using pairing and then switch pairing off, or if you have recalled a scene, the actual volume level may not match the physical position of the fader.
→ Move the fader up or down so that the fader matches the actual volume level, and then adjust the fader to an appropriate level.

Can't hear the playback

□ Is [TRACK STATUS] set to PLAY? (→p.8)
□ Cue, TrackMonitor, and CDMonitor are not output from the [MASTER OUT] jacks.
→ Either connect your monitoring system to the [MONITOR OUT] jacks, or listen through headphones.
□ Has solo been turned on, so that other tracks are not heard? (→p.39)
☐ When using auto punch-in/out, and you are unable to hear the playback of the recording track ([TRACK STATUS] REC) outside the IN-OUT region, you may have set the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Monitor" tab page "AutoIn" parameter to "On." (→p.54, 100)
☐ If you have selected Cue, the cue level of each channel may have been lowered.
→ In the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Monitor" tab page, press "Level" button, then raise the cue levels. (→p.38, 100)

Can't hear the input sound

□ After connecting your audio source to an input jack, did you assign it to a mixer channel?
→ In the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Ch1-6" or "Ch7-12" tab page, assign the source to a mixer channel. (→p.35)
□ Make sure that audio is being input.
→ In the [METER/TRACK VIEW] page, set "Select DisplayMode" to "PreFaderLev," and watch the meters to verify that audio is being input to each mixer channel. If the meters do not move, audio is not being input to the channels.
□ Are the monitor settings appropriate?
- In the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Monitor" tab page, select the signal that you want to monitor (normally, turn "MasterLR" "On").

If you have turned "Rhythm" or "Cue" "On," raise their volume levels. (→p.38, 100)

□ Is [TRACK STATUS] set to REC or INPUT? (→p.8)
□ Is the [TRIM] knob raised to an appropriate level?
☐ If the input sound cannot be heard when you play back a track whose [TRACK STATUS] is REC, did you turn the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Monitor" tab page "Autoln" setting "Off"? (→p.100)
☐ If cue is selected, the cue level of each channel may have been lowered.
→ In the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Monitor" tab page, press the "Level" button and raise the level. (→p.39)
☐ The digital input may become inaudible for two or three seconds. If the sampling frequency of the digital input source device changes while it is connected (e.g., 48 kHz → 44.1 kHz), it will take the sampling rate converter of the D1200 two or three seconds to lock to that frequency. Please wait until you hear sound.
☐ The format of the digital input source may be incorrect.
→ Connect an instrument or digital audio device that is CP-1201 or S/P DIF compliant.

Responsibility for loss of data

Korg Corporation will accept no responsibility for any damages (direct or indirect, whether sustained by the customer or by a third party) resulting from loss of or damage to data written on a CD-R or CD-RW disc using the CDRW-1.

2. Installing the CDRW-1

Before installing the CDRW-1, you must turn off the power of the D1200 and unplug the AC/DC power supply.
① Remove the cover.

Slide the [EJECT] switch (located on the bottom of the D1200) in the direction of the arrow, and the drive bay cover of the D1200 will be pushed out.

Note Keep the cover you removed in a safe place, since you will need it if you remove the CDRW-1.

③ Insert the CDRW-1.

Push the CDRW-1 into the D1200's drive bay until the front panel of the CDRW-1 is aligned with the side panel of the D1200. Make sure that the drive is oriented in the correct direction when you insert it into the D1200.

CD-RW installable

If the D1200 does not detect the D1200, try pressing strongly once again on the areas indicated by the arrows in step ③, or re-install the CDRW-1.

To remove the CDRW-1

Slice the [EJECT] switch located on the bottom panel of the D1200, and the CDRW-1 will be ejected from the D1200. Gently pull out the ejected CDRW-1.

This procedure must be performed with the power off.

To fasten the CDRW-1 in place

By using the screw that is included with the CDRW-1, you can lock the [EJECT] switch of the D1200 to ensure that the CDRW-1 does not come out accidentally.

3. Inserting a disc

Make sure that the D1200 is powered-on.

① Open the disc tray.

Press the eject button of the CDRW-1 to open the disc tray.

At this time the tray will only open halfway. Manually pull out the tray far enough that the disc can be placed on the tray.

Eject button

When you use the CDRW-1 for the first time, remove the pickup stopper from the disc tray before using the drive.

② Place the disc on the tray.

Place the disc accurately on the tray with the label facing upward.

③ Close the disc tray.

Push the disk tray in until it is completely closed.

If the D1200 does not recognize the disc, re-install the CDRW-1 as described in "Installing the CDRW-1."

4. Removing a disc

① Press the eject button to open the disc tray.

② Gently remove the disc from the disc tray.

③ Push the disc tray in until it is completely closed.

Emergency disc removal

Normally you will be able to remove the disc as described above. However if this is not possible due to a power failure or other problem, you can also remove the disc as follows.

To use this method, you will need a pin-like object of less than 2 mm diameter, such as a straightened paper clip. Insert this straight into the manual eject hole, and push. The disc tray will be forced open.

Excessive use of this method may cause the CDRW-1 to malfunction.

This procedure must be performed with the power off.

5. Using the CDRW-1

For details on how to back up and restore using the CDRW-1, and how to use the CDRW-1 to create an audio CD, refer to "Operation."

When using the CDRW-1, you must operate the unit in a level position in a location that is not subject to vibration.

Playing back an audio CD

Here's how to play back an audio CD and listen to it through your headphones or monitor speakers.

① Connect headphones to the [PHONES] jack or monitor speakers to the [MONITOR OUT L/R] jacks, and turn down the level knobs for each jack to the minimum volume.
② Insert an audio CD in the CDRW-1. Press the eject button of the CDRW-1, open the disc tray, and insert the audio CD.
③ Play back the audio CD. Access the [CD] "CDR/RW" tab page. Use the cursor to select the CDR-RW transport key, and press the [ENTER] key.
④ Press the "CD Monitor" button, and gradually raise the [PHONES] or [MONITOR OUT L/R] volume level.

Recording the sound of an audio CD

Here's how to assign the L channel of an audio CD to track 1, the R channel to track 2, and record the sound of the CD.

① Insert an audio CD in the CDRW-1.
② Assign the audio output from the CDRW-1 to tracks 1 and 2.

Access the [INPUT/OUTPUT/SOLO] "Ch1-6" tab page, select the "Ch1" icon, and use the [VALUE] dial to select "CD L." In the same way, select the "Ch2" icon and select "CD R."

③ Specify the recording tracks.

Press the [TRACK STATUS] keys of tracks 1 and 2 to select REC.

④ Check the recording mode.

Access the [BOUNCE] "RecMode" tab page. Set "SelectRecMode" to "Input."

⑤ Press the [REC] key to enter record-ready mode.

⑥ Play back the audio CD.

Access the [CD] "CDR/RW" tab page. Use the cursor to select the CD-R/RW transport key, and press the [ENTER] key.

⑦ Press the [PLAY] key to begin recording.

⑧ When you are finished recording, press the [STOP] key.

⑨ Stop the audio CD.

Access the [CD] "CDR/RW" tab page. Move the cursor to the CD-R/RW transport key, and press the [ENTER] key.

⑩ Play back the song, and verify that it was recorded correctly.

The beginning of recording on the D1200 is not synchronized with the beginning of playback of the CD in the CDRW-1. This means that the above method cannot be used to record the very beginning of the audio CD. If you want to record from the beginning of a song, make Trigger settings before step ④ of this procedure. (-p.54)
