5 Raise the STEREO fader to the 7–8 mark.
6 Press the [REW] button to rewind the tape,
and press the [PLAY] button to start playback.
7 While listening to the headphones or the
monitor speakers, adjust the faders, PAN
controls, and EQ controls on Input Channel
1–4.
First use the faders to adjust level balance between
tracks, so that the +3 segments of the level meters light
up momentarily at the loudest peaks. Use the STEREO
fader, if necessary, for fine adjustments. Then use the
PAN controls to set the stereo position. Finally, use the
EQ controls to adjust the tonal quality to refine your
music, and re-adjust the volume level, if necessary.
Recording to a master recorder
Record the final mix to a stereo master recorder.
8 Start recording on the master recorder and
start playback from the top of the song on
the MT400.
9 When you finish mixdown, stop the MT400
and the master recorder.
0 Play the master recorder from the beginning
and turn the LEVEL control 5–6 for STEREO
INPUTs to listen to the mix.
To listen to the mix recorded on the master recorder,
you need to connect the output jacks of the master
recorder to STEREO INPUTs 5 and 6 of the MT400 to
monitor via the Stereo bus. To adjust the monitoring
level, use the LEVEL control 5–6 for STEREO INPUTs
and the STEREO fader.
