RECORDING - 11
This shows the default assignment for a system with eight analogue inputs with each input
being routed to the 8 tracks. Inputs can be assigned to tracks 9-16 by pressing the TR9-
16 key. You will see this screen display.
With the cursor to the far left of the screen in the INPUTS column, you may assign inputs
to tracks using the DATA ENTRY +/- keys. For example, to assign digital input A to tracks
1 and 2 instead of the analogue inputs shown here, press the DATA ENTRY+ key to
receive this display:
Any pair of inputs input can be assigned to tracks in this way
Inputs may also be routed to tracks using the cursor up/down/left/right keys to move to a
matrix point. You then use the DATA ENTRY +/- keys to assign or de-assign accordingly.
For example, to route ADC 1R to track 6, move the cursor to 6 using the cursor right key
and use the cursor down key to select INPUT ADC 1R. The cursor looks like this and
shows you where you are. To the right of the screen, the input you have selected and the
track you are on is also shown.
The cursor is shown and the track number is highlighted. The selected track and input
are also shown to the right of the screen - in this case, TRACK 6 INPUT ADC 1R.
To route this input to the selected track, press the DATA ENTRY+ key. You will see this
screen:
This shows that INPUT ADC 1R is now routed to tracks 2 and 6.
Any combination of inputs may be routed to tracks in this way (although two inputs may
not be routed to one track). Don't forget that to route inputs to tracks 9-16, you should
press the TR9-16 key.
Should you wish to reset the input routing to the default setting, press the RESET key.
The input selection and track routings you make can be saved as part of the system
settings when you save them (see SYSTEM - SETTINGS).
