This diagram shows the outputs of a stereo microphone connected to the mic inputs
of channels 1 and 2. The stereo pan switch is pressed in, so channel 1 goes only to
the left of the main mix, and channel 2 goes to the right.
The tape output is connected to a location recording device, with a set of head-
phones attached. It is best to keep the headphones on the last device in your record-
ing chain (the recording device). Many flash-based digital devices are available.
Set the main mix output level control to unity (U) and use the recorder's own level
control to adjust the levels going to the recorder. Each channel from your microphone
can be adjusted with the channel level controls. Keep them at the same level to retain
the true balance from your microphone.
