Chapter 6: Mixdown Applications
Once you have your final tracks recorded and have chosen which virtual tracks you wish to use, you are
ready to mix them all to a final stereo mix. Using the analog output, you might mix to a cassette deck or
other analog tape recorder.
You will need to make your appropriate pan pot settings, connect your mixdown device to the analog
master output, adjust your fader levels, and record your final mix on the stereo analog device.
