Recording the guitar

Plug the guitar into the

GUITAR [H]

input on the front of the 2488.

Then plug a pair of headphones into
the

PHONES

jack on the front

panel.

Play the guitar, and adjust the level
using

TRIM

control

so that when

you play a loud note, the

indica-

tor above the

INPUT-H

key lights

very briefly. Then turn the

TRIM

counterclockwise a little more.

If you want to tune the guitar using
the 2488, see “Tuner” on page 35.

Press and hold the

INPUT-H

key so

that it starts to flash. While holding
it down, press the

SELECT

key of

channel 1. Now both these keys will
flash.

Now release both keys. They will
both be lit. This means that input H
is now assigned to track 1.

Press the

REC

key of track 1. It

starts to flash.

Set both fader

and the

STEREO

fader to the 0 position.

Adjust your listening level by using
the

MONITOR

level control with the

MONITOR SOURCE

set to

STEREO
