MR16 Owner’s Manual (Troubleshooting)

Troubles for recording

<Trouble 1>: I cannot record the sound source connected to [INPUT B] to track 1.

•When recording a sound source to a mono track, you can only use the [INPUT A] section.

Connect the source to [INPUT A].

<Trouble 2>: I cannot record the sound sources connected to [INPUT C] and [INPUT D] to tracks 1 and 2.

•When recording two sound sources simultaneously, you must use [INPUT A] and [INPUT B].You cannot use [INPUT C] and [INPUT D]. Reconnect the sources to [INPUT A] and [INPUT B].

<Trouble 3>: The input level of the track to which I am going to record is too low.

•Is the [TRIM] control of the input to which the sound source is connected adjusted appropriately?

To set the input level (= recording level) appropriately, use the [TRIM] control so that the peak indicator does not light continuously.

<Trouble 4>: I cannot hear the input signal via the headphones though the [REC SELECT] key is active.

•Did you press the [RECORD] key to make the armed track in the input monitor mode? Is the [PHONES VOL] control raised?

You cannot hear the input signal unless the assigned track is in the input monitor mode by pressing the corresponding [REC SELECT] key to turn on the indicator. Also, you cannot hear any signal if the [PHONES VOL] control is set to minimum.

<Trouble 5> : The meter shows very low level and the recording level is too low.

•Is the [TRIM] control for the input section the sound source is connected adjusted appropriately?

Set the [TRIM] control just below the position where the [PEAK] indicator in the [INPUT A] section lights at the loudest part.
