Preparing for mixdown

Mixdown and bounce operations

5If you want to adjust the pan of each track

channel, repeatedly press the Selected

Channel section [PAN/BAL] knob or hold

down the [PAN/BAL] knob and use the CUR-

SOR [ ]/[ ] keys to access the PAN page

of the PAN screen.

In this page you can set pairing, phase, and pan for

each channel.

1PAIR

Indicates the paired status of adjacent odd-numbered/

even-numbered channels. A heart symbol indicates

channels that are paired, and a broken heart symbol

indicates channels that are not paired. You can also set

or defeat pairing in this page by moving the cursor to a

heart symbol and pressing the [ENTER] key.

BPHASE

Switches the phase of the signal of each channel

between normal and reversed. Move the cursor to this

location and press the [ENTER] key to switch between

N (Normal) and R (Reverse) phase.

CPAN

Adjusts the pan (the left/right position when the signal

is sent to the stereo bus or L/R bus) of each channel.

6Move the cursor to the PAN knob of each

track channel, and turn the [DATA/JOG] dial

to adjust the pan setting.

7Raise the [STEREO] fader to the 0 dB posi-

tion.

8While you play back the song, raise the

track channel faders to an appropriate level.

If necessary, adjust the EQ and dynamics of

each track channel.

You can adjust the track channel EQ/dynamics in a

similar way as for the input channels; press a [TRACK

SEL] key to select a track channel, and use the

Selected Channel section [EQ] knob and [DYN] knob.

•Track channels 9/10–15/16 and pad channels 1–4 always

function as paired channels. Pairing cannot be defeated for

these channels.

NOTE

•If the page is different than shown above, make sure that you

have selected track channels as the object of operations.

(This is indicated in the upper left of the screen.) If input chan-

nels and pad channels are selected, press any one of the

[TRACK SEL] keys.

•Even if channels are paired, their phase and pan are not

linked. Set these parameters individually for each channel.

NOTE

• Another way of adjusting the pan is to press a [TRACK SEL]

key to select a track channel, and then turn the [PAN/BAL]

knob in the Selected Channel section. This method is conve-

nient when you want to adjust the pan without displaying a dif-

ferent screen.

If you use the [PAN/BAL] knob to adjust the pan of track chan-

nels 9/10–15/16, moving the knob will initially cause only the

pan value of one side to change. When that pan value

reaches the far right or left, the other pan value will then begin

to change.
