STEREO buss at the level same as with the meter (32)
1 ~ 4 indications.
The effect processing method is almost the same as with
the ping-pong recording example but please note that
the effect returns from AUX OUT Jakes 1 - A are also
connected to the channels 17, IB TAPE IN jack (36)
and ihe STEREO IN jack (44), Especially, it will be safer
to select an effect, to be connected to the STEREO IN
jack
(44), which is of stereo oulput and adjustable in oulput
level and perspective. Also, do not forget to set the
channel T 7, 1 (1 AUX 2 send (6) to - «> (same reason
as for ping-pong recording). In any case, if the effect
sound of SUB MIX section (3), (4) is sent to the STEREO
buss by CUE/L-R selector (5), and the effect sound of
channel 17, IS INPUT fader {17) to the STEREO buss
by the assign L-R switch (12) and PAN (13), all effect
sounds and dry sounds wiH be sent to the master recorder
via the STEREO master fader (22).
For the method of monitoring, you can listen lo either
the signal sent to the master recorder by selecting
STEREO Df the MONITOR selector (26) or you can listen
to the master recorder output signal by pressing the 2

IV. MIXDQWN
Whai is mixdown
After finishing all recording on the muititrack recorder,
combining into stereo (or monaural) the playback sound
ot all tracks thru the mixer, then copying it onto a master
tape is called ''mljidown" This is an important operation
in which !he frnai touches are made to the multitrack
recording, end is carried out in parallel, from equalization
to effect processing, for total sound creation.
Please refer to Fig. 3. This ie an example ol applying
various effects on the playback sound from the E -16 TRK
1 - 16, mixing it to stereo, sending it to the master
recorder together with trie dry sound end mixing it down.
Each track can bo classified into (wo types according
to the types ol source signals which are respectively
combined in stored in the GROUP buss 1 £ 2 and 3 &
4 (= Grouping. Refer to GROUP master fader 1-4
(IS))
The output signals 1RK 1 — 16 routec to the INPUT rader
(17) by the channel 1—16 GROUP/SUB selector (2),
are grouped lo the GROUP master fader 1 - 4 (16) by
the assign 1-2, 3-4 switches (10). (11). then sent to the
STEREO buss via the GROUP TO STEREO sections (20)
and (21). When equalising each individual track, it will
be convenient it the PFL/SOLO level knob (30) is raised
in advance, and set to solo monitor by pressing the PFL
button (15} or INPUT SOLO button (16), It is also possible
to solo monitor the mixed signal that are grouped -iri Ibis
example, the vocals and backings) by the GROUP SOLO
button (19). Further, set the GROUP TO STEREO GAIN
