Preparations
Connect a master recorder such as an MD or DAT

jacks.
Load the project that you saved at the end of step
3-2. Alternatively, you can load the project "Sample
3" (number 994) from the hard disk. When the
MRS-1044 is shipped from the factory, this project
contains pre-recorded performances on all tracks.
(For details on loading a project, refer to p.17.) The
track structure of "Sample 3" is shown below.
Here's how to adjust the volume, pan (stereo left/right
position), and EQ for each channel of the mixer section.

7/8, 9/10) are lit green. In addition, press the INPUT
1/2 [ON/OFF] keys to make them go dark.
If the INPUT 1/2 [ON/OFF] keys are turned on, any instruments
connected to the [INPUT 1/2] jacks can also be mixed.
