Chapter 5 Features Application
Applications of DIRECT RECORD
This section describes applications of the DIRECT RECORD feature.
DIRECT RECORD while listening to the input signal
DIRECT RECORD basically takes place with the play [TRACK] started for all the channel faders. However, it is also
possible to start [INPUT] signals A to H. Here we will DIRECT RECORD to tracks 1 to 16, while monitoring the
counter and listening to a rhythm machine (in this case, a drum machine) from input H.
Connecting the sound source
1. Connect the OUT of the drum machine to [INPUT] H.
2. Connect the sound sources to record to [INPUT] A to F.
Setting the input signal to INPUT H
1. Press the [INPUT SEL] key (ORANGE: Flashing).
2. Press the [CH STATUS/CH SEL] key of ch16 so it flashes
ORANGE (ch16-> INPUT).
3. Press the [EXIT/NO] key to return to the Normal Display.
4. Set the ch16 fader and master fader to "0".
5. Start the drum machine and then adjust the [TRIM] of 8/
16/H.
The input signals of [INPUT] H are output from the L/R
stereo OUT. Use the [MON OUT] knob or [PHONES] knob
to increase the volume to an appropriate level.
Setting the input signals to INPUT A to F
1. Press the [DIRECT-REC TRK] key, then choose a track
to record with the [CH STATUS/CH SEL] key. (RED:
Flashing)
Press the [CH STATUS/CH SEL] key of ch1-ch6 so tracks
1-6 will be READY.
2. Press the [EXIT/NO] key to return to the Normal Display.
3. Set ch1-ch6 faders to "0".
4. Press the [RECORD] key and then set the READY track
to input monitor (RED: Flashing).
By using the input monitor, it is possible to monitor the
sound sources of ch1-ch6 and the INPUT H signals, at the
same time. Set the PAN as desired so it is easy to monitor
the sound.
5. Adjust the [TRIM] of each channel while outputting the
sound source.
Set the input level of each sound source, then proceed to
the next REC process.
Record
1. To start recording, press the [PLAY] key while the
[RECORD] key is depressed.
Sounds are DIRECTLY RECORDED to tracks 1-6
according to the guidance sounds of input H.
* If the ch16 fader is set to “INPUT]”,then track 16
cannot enter READY status which means recording will
not be possible. If, for example, all faders of ch9-ch16
are set to [INPUT], then recording is no longer possible
on tracks 9-16. Note that this does not affect any
signal already recorded on tracks 9-16.
* The fader of ch16 merely adjusts the level of the H
[INPUT] signal sent to stereo OUT. Therefore, it does
not adjust the level of the signals recorded.
