10. [REC SELECT] keys
16. [TRIM] controls / [PEAK] indicators
Each control adjusts the input gain of the
corresponding input channel (see pages 36
and 38 ~ 44).
Each indicator lights when the input signal
is overloaded (see page 15). You should ad-
just the input gain using the [TRIM] control
so that the [PEAK] indicator does not light.
15. [DISTORTION] control
Controls the amount of the distortion effect
for a guitar connected to the [XLR] connec-
tor or [UNBAL/GUITAR] jack (phone type)
on the [INPUT A] channel.
This control is effective only when the [IN-
PUT A SELECT] switch is set to "GUITAR" (see
pages 36 and 38).
13. Insert effect selection keys
Used to select the insert effect (mic simula-
tion or amp simulation) for the signal from
the [INPUT A] jack.
When setting the [INPUT A SELECT] switch
on the rear panel to "MIC/LINE", you can
use the mic simulation effect. When setting
the switch to "GUITAR", you can use the
guitar amp simulation effect (see page 60).
12. [EFFECT SEND] controls
Control the amount of signals from tracks 1
through 4 sent to the internal effect (reverb
or delay) (see page 62).
11. [PAN] controls
Control panning for tracks 1 through 4.
Used to select the recording track(s). You can
record onto up to two tracks simultaneously.
Pressing a key arms or unarms the corre-
sponding track(s). Tracks 5/6 or 7/8 are
armed or unarmed simultaneously (see
pages 38 ~ 44).
Each fader adjusts the track playback level.
Each of track faders 5/6 and 7/8 controls
the stereo signal (see pages 38 ~ 44).
9. Track faders 14. Internal Microphone
You can make recording using the internal
microphone by setting the [INPUT A SELECT]
switch on the rear panel to “INT MIC” (see
page 36). When you use the internal micro-
phone, you cannot use the insert effect.
