Track recording

6As necessary, use the same procedure to
specify other input channels as recording-
sources.
7Press the [TRACK SEL] key(s) for the record-
destination track(s).
You can select up to two tracks as the record-desti-
nation.
If you select track 1, 3, 5, or 7, the signal will be
connected to bus L. If you select track 2, 4, 6, or 8,
the signal will be connected to bus R. If you select
tracks 9/10–15/16, odd-numbered tracks will be
connected to bus L, and even-numbered tracks will
be connected to bus R.
The screen will display lines to indicate how the
signals are connected to the track(s).
Tip!
Tip!
•EQ and dynamics settings will be flat for a track chan-
nel whose track has been selected as a record-destina-
tion.
•If a single track is selected, the pan of the track channel
will be centered. If a paired track (
→
p. 49) is selected,
the odd-numbered/even-numbered track channels will
be panned to left and right respectively.
• The connection will be cancelled if you once again
press the [TRACK SEL] key of a currently selected track.
8For each input channel to which you con-
nected an instrument or mic, press and hold
the [INPUT SEL] key to access the INPUT SET-
TING popup window, and use the [GAIN]
knob to adjust the input level of the signal.
For details on adjusting the input level, refer to
“Recording to a sound clip” (→ p. 33).
9Raise the [STEREO] fader to the 0 dB position.
10
Raise the track channel fader for the record-
destination track, so that the monitor level is
appropriate.
Now you will be able to monitor the signal that is
being sent to the track(s) via the L/R bus.
11
To set the pan of each input channel, use the
[INPUT SEL] key to select a channel, and turn
the [PAN/BAL] knob of the Selected Channel
section.
When you use bus recording, it will not be possible
to adjust the pan or volume balance for individual
instruments after they have been recorded on the
track(s). This means that you must finalize the pan
and volume balance when you send the signals
from the input channels to the L/R bus.
12
To adjust the volume balance of each input
channel, repeatedly press the [VIEW] key in
the Selected Channel section to access the
FADER page.
When you want to set the volume balance of the
input channels, it is convenient to use the FADER
page of the VIEW screen. Here you can adjust the
on/off status and input levels for the input channels,
pad channels, and track channels — all in one
page.
13
While producing sound on your instruments,
use the [INPUT SEL] keys or CURSOR [ ]/
[] keys to move the cursor to the input
channel that you want to control, and turn
the [DATA/JOG] dial to adjust the volume
balance.
Note
Note
We recommend that you not use the [GAIN] knob to
adjust the volume balance of the input channels. This will
degrade the S/N ratio, and may cause the sound to dis-
tort.
Tip!
Tip!
•You can also use the INPUT LEVEL knob in the INPUT
SETTING popup window to adjust the volume balance
of the input channels.
•Normally, the panel faders are dedicated to the track
channels. However by changing an internal setting, you
can use the faders to control the input levels of the
input channels. (
