Assign MIC/LINE bank channels to desired tape
tracks.
Place tape inputs in record/ready to verify signal
at machine.
It’s typically best to monitor signal from the
multitrack rather than from the channel input.
Modular Digital Multitrack
Record Ready Buttons
If levels on the multitrack appear too hot or cold,
adjust level with the LEVEL TO TAPE control.
Select TRACKING LEVEL. This sets the channel
V-Pots to adjust the D8B output level to tape.
If you want to monitor from the multitrack,
remove the MIC/LINE Bank from the L/R mix.
This has no effect on the output to tape.
Adjust control room monitor mix from TAPE IN
Bank. Verify channel assignment to the L/R bus.
Set levels in headphone system for musicians.
Aux 9/10 and 11/12 are perfect for stereo
headphone sends. It’s often convenient for the
musicians to, at first, monitor the L/R mix in the cue
section (PHONES/CUE MIX 1 and 2). Once the initial
L/R mix is established, copy it to the appropriate
cue, then customize for individual monitoring needs.
