special bussing and monitoring features. For more informa

tion on using HDM, see the section "Using the HDM" on page

Mixing a 2-track with the Stereo Mix
You can mix the 2T IN with the input faders using the Hard Disk Mode.
To do this follow these simple steps.
Connect the 2-track device to the 2T IN input connectors and
any mic or line inputs to channels 1-8.
In this mode the C/ROOM+PHONES control will act as your
master volume, so for now, turn that all the way down.
Connect the CR LEFT and RIGHT outputs to your power
amp or powered speakers.
Press the HDM switch in the master section so that the yellow
LED is illuminated.
Now raise the C/ROOM+PHONES level control up to a bit
under 5.
Raise the MASTER FADERS to “O” so you can hear the mix from
the input channels 1 – 8.
Now, raise the channel faders and 2TK LEVEL control until you have the mix you want.
Adjust the C/ROOM+PHONES level control to set the desired final level.

CONTROL ROOM and HEADPHONE outputs.
MASTER SECTION
Auxiliary Return
The MDR6 has a stereo auxiliary return, which can be accessed via the pair of 1/4-inch phone jacks located on the top
panel. The Auxiliary Return can be used to connect any stereo line level signal, but they are primarily used to connect the
output of external effects processors.
