MR-8 Owner’s Manual

4)After rehearsing mixdown and adjusting the recording level, locate the MR-8 to the beginning of the song.

5)Start recording the master recorder and then start playing back the MR-8.

2)Make the master recorder to accept the digital input.

Make sure that the recorder accepts the digital signal output from the MR-8, which is 44.1-kHz, 16- bit, S/P DIF signal.

Generally, a digital recorder does not have a facility for controlling the digital input level.

6) After finishing recording, stop both recorders.

<Tip>

By moving up or down the MR-8 [MASTER] fader, you can fade in or fade out record- ing.

3)Use the [MASTER] fader of the MR-8 to adjust the output level.

Adjust the level appropriately so that the level meter of the master recorder shows "0" when the MR-8 outputs the biggest signal.

If the level meter exceeds "0", the sound may be distorted.

Digital mixdown

The following is described assuming that you already finished rehearsal of mixdown, as in step 2 of "Analog mixdown" above.

1)Connect the [DIGITAL OUT] connector of the MR-8 to the digital input connector of a digital master recorder.

If the master recorder supports the S/P DIF (optical) digital input, you can make direct connection using an optical cable.

<Note>

The [DIGITAL OUT] connector of the MR-8 is the Toslink optical type.

If your digital recorder provides only the coaxial type connector, use the Fostex COP- 1/96 kHz coaxial-optical converter.

Contact Fostex or our dealer for details about the Model COP-1/96 kHz.
