Step 4. Mastering
In order to play track “3a” which you recorded first, press the
[TRACK] key, access the “Vtr1–6” tab page, select “3b,” and turn the
[VALUE] dial to change it to “3a.”
Compare the two takes you recorded in virtual tracks “a” and “b.”
When you have decided which take is the best, leave that virtual
track selected.
Step 3. Mixing
In this step you will complete your song by applying effects to the tracks
and adjusting the volume and EQ to create the overall balance. This proc-
ess is called “mixing.”
1. Applying an insert effect to a track
Previously, we applied the insert effects to the inputs, to process the
sound as we recorded. Here’s how to apply an insert effect into a mixer
channel, and process the playback sound of the track. In this example, we
are assigning an insert effect to the vocal(Mic) recording on track 3.
1 Select which tracks will be played back.
Press the [TRACK STATUS] key of each recorded track to select
PLAY mode (LED lit green), theplayback of the selected tracks will be
included in the mix.
2 Access the [INSERT EFFECT] “InsAss” tab page.
3 Select the “Assign:” button and press the [ENTER] key. In the dialog
box that appears, select “PlayTrack(Trk).”
When you have made your selection, press the [YES/OK] key.
4 Select the “SelectEffType:” button and press the [ENTER] key to
select the effect type.
For this example, select “1in1outx4.” Make your selection, and press
the [YES/OK] key.
