Note: You may want to remove any count-ins before you create your master tape. There are several ways

of doing this. One method is to switch (input select key) the track that contains the count-in to the MIC/

LINE position until the count is completed and then switch it to the TAPE. Another method is to set the

MT4X to start playback after the count-in. Use the method that you find most comfortable.

Tip: You can add a synchronized MIDI part to your mix. See "Synchronized mixdown" on page 39.
