Tab. 10.4: MX3282A example: 16-track studio recording “overdubs”
The layout shown in fig. 10.4 corresponds to the music overdub situation once all bass & drum takes have been
completed. We have re-patched tape tracks onto main channels.
Remember to disconnect (from the wall boxes or desk XLR inputs) any microphones not in use. Otherwise the
line inputs of channels 1-24 won’t work properly (live mics picking up extraneous noise etc.).
*: The temporary tape monitor returns become redundant as and when tape tracks are able to be patched into
main channels. You could begin to spread your FX and sequenced music returns over these stereo channels
as they become available.
At last it is time for vocal overdubs and touch-ups like percussion parts.
(Fig. 10.4): Once overdubbing is complete the subgroups may be used in mono (or stereo pairs) as an aid to
mixdown, e.g. to control multiple backing vocals, or drum kit tracks such as tom-toms and overhead mics.

10.5 Multitrack Initialization

Set up the multitrack so that any track in “record ready” condition has it’s input monitored when the tape is
stationary. Place all tracks to be recorded into “record ready” status (once a recording has been made, these
tracks should automatically switch to tape playback).
