Fostex LR16 manual Adjusting the channel output levels sent to the stereo buss, Recording

Model LR16 [Recorder functions / Recording/playback]

<Memo>: You can monitor an input sig- nal via headphones or monitor speakers when the solo function is engaged. The monitor level can be controlled by using the [MONITOR] and [PHONES] controls (the latter only affects headphone moni- toring).

Each channel fader adjusts the channel output level sent to the stereo buss.

The "LR" meters on the display shows the stereo L and R buss output levels, while the channel meters shows the channel input levels.

Adjusting the channel output levels sent to the stereo buss

After adjusting the input level of each channel, you can tailor the channel signal and send it to the stereo buss via the pan pot and channel fader. (This determines the sound output from the main speaker in live performance.)

Before executing the following procedure, make sure that the "ST" indicator is lit and the [SOLO] indicator is unlit in the [MONITOR SELECT] sec- tion.

Lit

In this condition, you can monitor the stereo buss signal via headphones or monitor speak- ers. The monitor level can be controlled by us- ing the [MONITOR] and [PHONES] controls (the latter only affects headphone monitoring).

(1)Set the [ST] switch on each of mixer channels 1 through 16 to "ON" (). and raise the [STEREO] fader to the "0" position.

In this condition, by raising the channel fader, each channel signal is sent to the stereo L/R buss.

Stereo L and R buss output levels

The total output levels of the stereo L and R buss (= the input levels for stereo mix re- cording) can be adjusted using the [STE- REO] fader.

<Memo>: You can use the equalizer and the internal effects for each mixer chan- nel signal. See "Mixer function" on page 33 for details about the equalizer and the internal effects.

Now you have completed all the adjustment and are ready for both PA and recording of the actual live performance.
