Mixdown steps
Here's how to mix tracks 1 - 10 and the rhythm section (drum
+ bass) sound onto two stereo channels and record these on
the master track.
1.
Press the [V-TAKE] key in the track parameter
section so that the key lights up.
The screen for selecting a V-take for each track appears.
2.
Press the [MASTER] status key.
The master track is selected. The display shows the number
and name of the V-take currently selected for the master
track. (If nothing is recorded on the V-take, the indication
shows "NO DATA".)
H INT
Instead of pressing the [MASTER] status key, you can also
use the cursor left/right keys to select the master track.
3.
If you want to change the V-take, turn the dial.
4.
When the V-take has been selected, press the
[EXIT] key.
The [V-TAKE] key goes out, and the unit returns to the main
screen.
5.
From the main screen, press the [MASTER] status
key several times, until the key is lit in red.
The master track is now ready for recording.
While the key is lit in red, the other tracks as well as the
rhythm section and effects operate normally.
H INT
The signal recorded on the master track is the signal coming
from the [MASTER] fader. This is the same signal that is sup-
plied at the [OUTPUT] jacks.
6.
Set the recorder to playback and adjust the mixing
balance of the various tracks.
The individual track level settings as well as the insert effect
and send/return effect settings all have an influence on the
signal that is sent to the master track. Adjust levels while
watching the L/R level meter, and make sure that no signal
clipping occurs.
7.
To carry out the mixdown operation, press the
ZERO [ U ] key to return to the beginning of the
song, and then press the PLAY [ R ] key while
holding down the REC [ O ] key.
Recording on the master track starts.
8.
When recording is complete, press the STOP [ P ]
key.
