Record Features

Record Ready

Recording can only take place on tracks which are “armed” for recording. Press the Record Ready buttons to arm tracks. When Record is engaged, you can punch individual tracks in and out on the fly with the Record Ready buttons. Their LEDs blink in standby and glow in record.

Record Safe

Record Safe disarms all tracks and disables the Record Ready and master Record buttons. Use Record Safe to prevent users from inadvertently recording over existing audio.
