Mix Down

There are three ways to mix down your multi-track recording.
• Import the multi-track waves into a DAW (digital audio workstation). See "Transferring Tracks between TouchMix and DAW" above.
• Record the mixer's analog output to an external 2-track recorder. Simply connect the TouchMix Main L/R outputs to the inputs of your 2-track
device.
• Record a stereo mix to DAW via the USB DAW connection (TouchMix-30 Pro only).
• Internal mix down to 2-track.
To mix down to 2-track:
1. Recall the session and set up the mixer for Playback as described above.
2. From the Record/Play Screen:
If you would like to use the Main L/R channel processing on the stereo mix, select
Return to the Rec / Play screen and touch
What to do with the 2-track mix down?
• Export to a DAW for further processing and to be edited into individual songs. The wave files may be found in the last two folders of the directory
containing the session.
• TouchMix-30 Pro only – Create an MP3 version from the mixer. The TouchMix-30 Pro has the capability of rendering the 2-track mix as an MP3
file.
To make an MP3 version of Tracks 31/32:
The MP3 audio file will be saved to the "\<session name>.tmRecord\exports" directory.

DAW Interface

The TouchMix-30 Pro is capable of interfacing to Mac OSX computers with Core Audio. Core Audio was introduced with OSX version 10.3. The
mixer must be connected to the computer using a USB type-B connector attached to the "USB DAW" port of the mixer. To verify that your Mac is
connected, open the Audio MIDI Setup utility on the computer (Finder > Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup). "QSC TM30 Pro" will appear in
the Audio Devices window. Select the mixer and make sure that the sample rate on the Mac matches that of the Mixer.
