Chapter5—Recording on the AW4416

Mixdown

In this section we will explain the procedure for creating a stereo mix of the sig- nals recorded on tracks 1–16, applying internal effects, and recording the stereo track on the hard disk.

Creating the mix balance of the tracks

1.Make sure that [REC TRACK SELECT] keys 1–16 are dark (record-ready mode is defeated). Also make sure that the [ON] key is dark for all input channels 1–24.

Tip!

If necessary, the input signals from input channels 1–24 can be mixed down together with the signals of tracks 1–16. In this case, turn on the [ON] keys of the input channels that you wish to use, so that they are lit.

2.Press the [MONI] key.

Monitor channels 1–16 will be selected as the mixing layer.

3.Press the [PAN] key → [F3] key.

The PAN/ROUTE screen Pan MONI page will appear, allowing you to make pan settings and bus assignments for monitor channels 1–16.

4.For monitor channels 1–16, turn the ST button on and the bus assign 1– 8 buttons off.

With these settings, all monitor channels will be sent to the stereo bus.

5.Use the PAN knobs of monitor channels 1–16 to set the stereo position of each track.

Tip!

You can also use the [SEL] keys to select a channel and use the [PAN] control at the right of the display to set the pan of the corresponding monitor channel.
