Basic operation of the input
mixer
Here's how the signals that are input from the [INPUT
1]/[INPUT 2] jacks can be sent to a recording track, and
their recording levels can be adjusted.
1.
Make sure that the instrument or mic that you want
to record is connected to the [INPUT 1]/[INPUT 2]
jack(s).
2.
Press the [ON/OFF] key of the jack(s) (INPUT 1/2)
to which you connected your instrument, to make
the key light.
The [ON/OFF] key enables and disables the jack. When a
key is lit, the corresponding jack is enabled.
3.
While playing your instrument, turn the [INPUT 1]/
[INPUT 2] control(s) to adjust the input sensitivity.
Make adjustments so that the [PEAK] indicator flickers
slightly when you play your instrument at its loudest
volume.
4.
If you will be recording the sound through the
insert effect, select an insert effect patch as
necessary.
With the default settings of a project, the insert effect is
inserted into the input mixer, and a patch suitable for
guitar/bass recording is selected. (For details on how to
select a different patch, refer to p.77.)
If you want to record without sending the sound through the
insert effect, press the effect section [BYPASS/TUNER]
key to bypass the insert effect.
5.
While playing your instrument, turn the [REC
LEVEL] control to adjust the recording level.
The [REC LEVEL] control adjusts the signal level before it
is sent to the recording track (i.e., after it has passed
through the insert effect). The [CLIP] indicator will light if
the signal clips.
• Adjust the [REC LEVEL] control as high as possible
without allowing the [CLIP] indicator to light.
• The level of the signal sent to the recording track will
change according to the settings of the insert effect
parameters. If you switch insert effect patches or edit the
parameters, you should once again check whether the
recording level is appropriate.
• The precise setting of the REC LEVEL parameter can be
checked by pressing the TRACK PARAMETER section
[PAN] key → INPUT 1 or 2 [ON/OFF] key → cursor [
W]
key.
6.
Press the status key for the recording-destination
track (1 – 6, 7/8, 9/10) to make the key light red,
putting the track in record-ready mode.
The input signal from the input mixer will be sent to the
recording track. You can select record-ready mode for any
one mono track 1 – 6, any one stereo track (7/8, 9/10), or
any two mono tracks (only the track pairs 1/2, 3/4, or 5/6).
The signal flow from the input mixer to the track will
change as follows, depending on the number of selected
recording tracks and on the state of the INPUT 1/2
[ON/OFF] keys.
●
When two mono tracks or a stereo track is
selected as the recording track
●
When one mono track is selected as the
