Locating tape to zero
Making sure that the ZERO RETURN
switch is ON, press REW and the tape will
rewind to the beginning of the track 1
recording.
7 Track selection
Set the RECORD FUNCTION switch for
track 2 to its R position. The track's REC
indicator will start blinking.
8 Record level adjustment (TRIM)
Speak into the microphone to check to see
meter 2 move. Slowly push the channel 1
TRIM control until the meter peaks at no
more than +6.
9 Beginning recording
Hold RECORD and press PLAY to initiate
recording. The track 2's REC indicator that
was blinking will turn on solid, indicating
the track is now being recorded.
10 Monitoring input/tape
You will hear track 1 play, together with the
new signal going to track 2, in the
headphones.
NOTE
Adjust only the TAPE CUE control of channel
1 if you need to change the balance between
the old and new tracks in your headphones.
Leave the channel fader and TRIM and the
MASTER fader alone, because they control
the level being recorded.
11 Stopping recording
Press STOP (or PAUSE) to stop recording.
12 Putting track into "Safe"
The track 2's REC indicator should now be
blinking as before. Set the RECORD
FUNCTION switch for track 2 back to its
SAFE position and the indicator will turn
off.
