7.
Use the [PARAMETER/VALUE]
keys to adjust the parameter.
The left/right [PARAMETER/VALUE] keys
serve for selecting the parameter and the
up/down [PARAMETER/VALUE] keys for
setting the value.
When wishing to use the send/return effect,
press the [SEND/RETURN] key to set it to ON,
and then select the algorithm and parameter
(
p. 21).
When a signal is sent from the input mixer to
the send/return effect, only the signal output
from the MASTER [L]/[R] jacks reflects the
effect. The effect has no influence on the signal
recorded on the track.
8.
When preparations are complete,
play the instrument and perform
mixdown.
The input 1/2 signal is mixed to the track 1 –
4 signal and sent to the master recorder. It is
also possible to apply the mixdown effect to
the mixed signal.
When bouncing the signal onto internal V-takes,
the input signal can also be mixed in as
described above.
Linking two tracks
(stereo link function)
This function allows you to link two tracks in
the track mixer, so that their parameters
(except the V-take selection) are adjusted in
sync. This is convenient to control stereo
material that was recorded on two tracks.
1.
While the main screen is shown,
press the [TRACK PARAMETER]
key.
The track parameter menu appears.
2.
Use the status keys 1 – 4 to select
one of the two tracks you want to
link.
3.
Use the left/right [PARAMETER/
VALUE] keys to call up the STL
(stereo link) parameter.
4.
Use the up/down [PARAMETER/
VALUE] keys to set the STL
parameter to ON.
When status key 1 or 2 was pressed in step 2,
tracks 1 and 2 are linked. When status key 3
or 4 was pressed, tracks 3 and 4 are linked.
When two tracks are linked, the following
applies.
When the stereo link is activated, the PAN
parameter is set to 0 for both tracks. The
values for all other track parameters
(except V-take selection) are copied from
the odd-numbered track to the even-
numbered track.
When the parameter in one track is
changed, the parameter of the other track
also changes accordingly (except V-take
selection).
When the fader for the odd-numbered
track is operated, the level in both tracks
changes. (The fader of the even-numbered
track is inactive.)
The PAN parameter operates as a
BALANCE parameter that adjusts the
level balance between the two (left and
right) channels.
5.
To cancel the stereo link, set the
STL parameter to OFF.

When no recording track is selected
When when the insert effect is used, the basic
signal flow for inputs 1/2 remains same.
Depending on the selected insert effect
algorithm, the level at input 1 and 2 may be
watched simultaneously for operation in both
channels, or inputs 1 and 2 may operate
independently.
Adding the input signal
to the mixdown
When performing mixdown, the input mixer
can be used to add the signal from inputs 1/2.
1.
Connect the master recorder to the
MASTER [L]/[R] jacks and make
the necessary preparations for
mixdown (
p. 18).
2.
Connect the instrument or
microphone to add to the mix to
the [INPUT 1]/[INPUT 2] jacks.
3.
Set the [ON/OFF] keys 1/2 to ON.
4.
While listening to the sound, adjust
the input sensitivity with the
[INPUT LEVEL] controls 1/2.
5.
While the main screen is shown,
press the [TRACK PARAMETER]
key.
The track parameter menu for changing the
settings for individual tracks appears.
6.
Press the [ON/OFF] key 1 or 2 to
select the input on which to operate.
Available parameters and their setting range
are shown in the table below.
