<Tip>: By sliding up or down the MR-8mkII
[MASTER] fader gradually, you can fade in
or fade out recording.
3) Adjust the recording level of the master recorder
while rehearsing mixdown.
See the manual of the master recorder for
details about how to adjust the recording level.
4) After rehearsing mixdown and adjusting the
recording level, locate the MR-8mkII to the
beginning of the song.
5) Start the master recorder recording and then start
the MR-8mkII playing back.
6) After finishing recording, stop both recorders.
1) Connect the [STEREO OUT (L, R)] connectors of
the MR-8mkII to the input connectors of an
analog master recorder.
2) While playing back the MR-8mkII, rehearse
mixing down the recorded sounds by adjusting
the level and panning of each track, applying
effects to tracks 1 through 4 and applying the
mastering effects to the L/R stereo mix, etc.
The output levels from the [STEREO OUT (L,
R)] connectors can be controlled by the
[MASTER] fader.
Adjust the levels appropriately so that the
highest segments of L and R meters do not light.
See "Using effects" on page 59 for details about
the delay/reverb and mastering effects.
Analog master recorder
MR-8mkII
This section describes basic mixdown which is the final process of multitrack recording. Mixdown
mixes recorded materials on tracks 1 through 8 down to Stereo L/R (two tracks) as shown in the
figure below. While playing back all tracks, you can apply effects (reverb/delay) to tracks 1
through 4 or adjust stereo panning and feed mixed-down signals to an external master recorder.
With the MR-8mkII, you can also record a mixed-down signal internally to a new song of the MR-8mkII using
the track bouncing function, without the need of an external master recorder (see "Track bouncing" de-
scribed later).
