Applications Of Buss Record; Record By Mixing The Input Sound And Play Sound - Fostex VF160EX Operation Manual

BUSS RECORD makes it possible to record all the source channel signals sent to REC BUSS L/R on either 2 tracks or
1 track. The source channel is selectable with the "IN (Input)" channel and "TRK (Track)" channel, therefore, it is
possible to record the input signals along with signals that are already recorded.
