INPUT ROUTING - ASSIGNING INPUTS TO TRACKS

Because the DD1500 has more tracks than there are inputs, some way of assigning the
inputs to tracks is needed. The default selection depends very much on the number of
inputs you have installed in the system. In a basic system with no ADCs connected (I.e.
the only inputs you have are the digital inputs A and B), the default assignment would be:
If you add one DD1500a to the system with just two stereo analogue inputs, these would
be automatically assigned as
The digital inputs A and B may also be assigned if you wish but, in this case, the
analogue inputs would take priority in the routing.
Of course, should you add more inputs (be they digital or analogue), the system will
assign them automatically for you but you may re-assign them as you wish.
With this default setting, you may record using a normal 4- or 8-group output track laying
mixer and assign mixer channels to tracks from the mixer just as you would with a normal
MTR with no need to worry about having to set any special input routing. However, if you
do wish to route inputs within the DD1500, this is also possible.
In the REC/# page, pressing ROUTE INPUTS displays something like this screen:
This shows the default routing in a system with no analogue inputs, only the standard
digital inputs A and B.
This shows the default settings for a system fitted with a DD1500a comprising one AD4
analogue input board.
