4.1 Studio set-up

The following wiring example shows a studio set-up for 4-track-recording:
the drums are mixed down to two subgroups and then routed via the subgroup
outputs to two tracks of the multi-track recorder. The remaining two subgroups
are used to record the guitar, keyboard (stereo channel) and two vocal signals

Please make sure that none of the subgroup routing switches
(1-2 and 3-4) is pressed in the channels connected to the recorder
returns. Otherwise, a feedback loop will be created as soon as you
start recording. Only press the MAIN switch on these input channels,
so that the tape return signals are routed to the main outs and
Phones/CTRL room outputs of the console.

on the remaining two tracks. The four return paths from the recorder are
connected to four separate mono input channels on the EURODESK. The built-in
compressor is used only for the bass, which is why this input channel is separate
from all buses (SUB and MAIN switch not pressed). The bass signal is directly
routed from the built-in effects processor to the respective subgroups
(FX TO MAIN control). The MAIN/SUB switch in the FX1 section is pressed,
but NOT the SUB 1/2 SUB 3/4 button.
