Setting Input levels
As previously stated, the MON MIX mode can be very
useful for recording live tracks into a DAW applica-
tion. Here’s a typical scenario for recording and over-
dubbing using
MON MIX mode:
• Connect your analog and/or digital source(s) to the
FW-1082’s inputs.
•In
COMPUTER control mode, arm your DAW tracks
for recording and meter the input level to those
tracks using the DAW’s level meters.
• Select
MON MIX to access the monitor mixer con-
trol surface mode.
• Press the
F2 INPUTS key to monitor the inputs
without hearing your existing DAW tracks.
• Solo an input channel by pressing that channel’s
SOLO key.
• Adjust the channel’s
TRIM pot (if it is an analog
input) or the digital source (if it is a digital input)
until the input meter in your DAW shows a level
that is hot, but not clipping.
• Repeat this procedure for all active input channels.
Once you’re done setting up levels, you can return to
COMPUTER control mode and begin recording.
