A breakdown? If you suspect so, please read the fpllowing explanations before requesting repairs.
• Input signal not indicated by the level meter ?
Level meter does not light up even though
recording track is set and channel fader/master
fader is raised to the "0" position.
Set the recorder to input monitor.
Press the [RECORD] key only. The key will blink in red
and the READY track will be in the input monitor mode.
The recorder output can be applied to each channel
faders. The level meter is unable to function unless the
READY track is changed to the input monitor mode.
For details, read pages 32-33 and 45-46.
* Level does not increase even though the channel
fader is raised ?
Recording level will not increase although the
READY track channel fader is raised to maximum
(+6).
Adjust [TRIM] knob to a suitable level.
The level cannot be raised for small input signals if the
[TRIM] knob is positioned at "LINE" (full CCW).
Rotate the [TRIM] knob to just before the sound distorts.
• The monitor sound is not heard even though the
input level/stereo buss L, R levels are being indicated
by the meter ?
Although the READY track is set to input monitor,
no sound is heard in the headphone although the
meter is indicating the level.
Raise the [PHONES] knob.
No sound will be heard if the headphones adjuster is
turned down. Also, if monitoring with an external moni-
tor speaker, raise the [MON OUT] knob.
• Sound adjusted by EQ cannot be recorded by DIRECT
recording ?
When DIRECT recording, EQ cannot be applied.
Application of EQ at recording is permissible only at BUSS
recording. Although EQ can be applied to the input sig-
nal at DIRECT recording, this is strictly listening to the
monitor sound only and the original sound will be re-
corded without alteration.
However, when BUSS recording, EQ can be applied to
each input signal and recorded.

Troubles at Recording?

• Effect sound cannot be recorded at BUSS recording ?
Select source channel for the effect.
When BUSS recording, in order to record while apply-
ing effect to the source channel, effect 1 or effect 2 must
be selected together with selecting the source channel
as shown in the schematic below. In the example below,
input H and effect 1 are selected for the source channel.
For details, read page 45.
• When attempting to select a recording track for
DIRECT recording, are there some tracks between 9-
16 that cannot be selected ?
Could there be some channels set to “INPUT” at
setup of [INPUT]-[TRACK] ?
DIRECT recording is executed, basically, with all chan-
nels in the “TRK” mode at setup of [INPUT]-[TRACK], as
shown below. Should any one channel of 9-16 is set to
“INPUT”, that channel cannot be set as a recording track
at DIRECT recording.
