Recording and mastering
In this section we will practice multitrack recording.
Here we will explain how to connect an electric guitar and
rhythm guitar to INPUT H, and an external microphone to
INPUT B.
In the following example, we will explain how to record a
rhythm guitar part with an electric guitar to track 1 and a
lead guitar part to track 2. Then, we will use the external
microphone to record vocals to track 3. Finally, we will mix
down the tracks to stereo.
We will assume that you have already followed the
instructions in the previous section, and that you have
connected the monitoring equipment, started the unit
and inserted the SD card.
