Recording to the SDR-3

Prior to recording to the SDR-3, you want to ensure that the signal being recorded is properly mixed. Refer to the text on “REC LEVEL LEDs” to ensure a good level. Once you are happy with your overall mix, follow the steps below to record.

In stop mode, press the REC button once to place the SDR- 3 in record pause mode. This is the time to check the levels of the audio to be recorded and adjust the REC VOL control if necessary.

Press the REC button a second time to begin recording.

Pressing the REC button during a recording in progress will pause the recording without creating a new track. This is useful for recording several sections of a recording session into a single cohesive track without breaking it up into several tracks.
