TRACK

Your
ears
are
always
Ihe
final
reference,
and
a
good
am¬
plifier/speaker
connection
to
the
MON
OUT
jacks
(30)
will
provide
the
best
listening
source.
With
line
level
sources
such
as
drum
machines
and
elec¬
tronic
instruments,
listen
through
speakers
for
best
results.
With
vocals
and
acoustic
instruments,
headphones
(28)
are
necessary
to
avoid
feedback
from
the
"live”
micro¬
phones.

Press
the

and
the

button
simultaneously
The
RECORD
TRACK
LED

the
REC

will
light

Any
track
placed
in
the

mode
will
monitor
the
input
signal.
NOTE:
Since
this
first
recording
(basic
track)
will
be
used
as
a
reference
for
all
additional
recordings,
it's
a
good
idea
to
begin
with
a
rhythmic
count-off
with
the
snare
drum
before
the
actual
downbeat
or
upbeat
of
the
perfor¬
mance
begins.
(This
makes
overdubbing
a
lot
easier)
