Mixdown; Recording In A New Program - Fostex D2424LV Quick Operation Manual

Model D2424 Quick Operation Guide
After overdubbing and ping-pong recording, you can mix all track data into two channel stereo data and
record it onto your master recorder. This final process of multitrack recording is called "mixdown."
The mixdown signals are usually output from the mixer's STEREO OUT L/R. Connect the master recorder
Initialize the recorder.
1. Set all tracks to the SAFE status.
2. Locate the top of the Program on this recorder.
3. Set the master recorder to REC-STANDBY mode.
4. Play the Program from the beginning and adjust the
recording level on the master recorder while adjusting
the tonal quality and mix balance of the playback
sound from the mixer. (Rehearsal)
Adjust the input level on the master recorder so that the
STEREO OUT L/R meters on the mixer respond to the same
degree as the level meters on the master recorder.
The explanation so far has been based on one Program set up when you format a current drive (E-IDE
hard disk or SCSI disk). You may create up to 99 Programs, depending on the available disk space.
Multiple Programs do not interfere with each other. You can record, play, and edit each Program
independently, which facilitates song management. This section explains how to set up a new Program
on the disk. Refer to the reference manual for more information regarding Programs.
