Step 8. Mixdown
You can use mixer settings such as EQ, faders, and
effects to adjust the audio from each recorded track in
order to create a finished song (→p.25, 29), and record
the final result on a two-channel recorder (DAT
recorder, MD recorder, cassette recorder etc.). This pro-
cess is called mixdown.
1 Listen to the completed song.
Use the faders and knobs to adjust the volume and
pan of each track, and listen to the playback.
2 Connect your external recording device.
Refer to “Connections for mixdown” (→p.12).
3 Record on your external recording device.
• Playback the D16 song, and adjust the recording
level on your external recorder. Then return the
D16 song to the beginning.
• Put your external recording device in record
mode, and playback the D16 to record the song
on your two-channel recorder.
You can also use the Program Playback function to
play back songs in a specified order (→p.23).
You can use any of the analog inputs ([INPUT 1/GUI-
TAR IN]–[INPUT 8]) as a sub input to send the audio
directly to the master bus.
This is useful when you have synchronized a sequencer
to the completed song and would like to input the
sequenced sounds, or to add the return audio from an
external effect processor connected to the [AUX OUT]
jack.
1 Connect the external audio source to the analog
inputs.
2 Make sub input settings.
• Select the [INPUT] “Ch1–8” or “Ch9–16” tab
page.
• Press the “SubIn” button to access the “Sub
input setting” screen.
• Turn “Off” the “M (mute)” button for the con-
nected input.
• Press the “Fader” icon and rotate the [VALUE]
dial to raise the value so that the audio signal
will be input.
• If the input is monaural, press the “Stereo/
Mono” button to select “Mono.” The audio will
be sent to both L and R buses.
