The Recording Process - Yamaha MT100 Operation Manual

THE RECORDING PROCESS

Recording with the MT100 is a very simple process. All you need is the MT100,
microphone, or other signal source.
The multitrack recording process can be basically broken down into the following steps:
1. Record the First Track.
a) Channel-to-track Assignment.
b) Set Record Level.
c) Record.
2. Overdub the Remaining Tracks.
a) Channel-to-track assignment for each overdub.
b) Set record level for each overdub.
c) Record the overdub.
3. Ping-pong and Overdub More Tracks (If necessary).
4. Mixdown.
a) Set up for monitoring the mix.
b) Set up a rough mix and add effects.
c) Finalize and rehearse the mix.
d) Connect the MT100 ST OUT jacks to a stereo casette recorder.
e) Record (from the MT100 to the stereo cassette recorder).
These steps (and what the recording terms mean) will be described in detail below, so its a good idea to read through the following
sections in sequence in order to get a clear picture of the overall recording process.
