Digitally Recording To Md/Dat - Roland Audio Canvas UA-100 User Manual

Digitally Recording to MD/DAT

The UA-100 is able to mix two audio devices from the computer and two mic inputs or
one pair of line inputs, and output the result from its digital output connector.
Here we will explain how you can playback existing sequence data, and record from
the UA-100's digital output onto a digital recorder such as MD or DAT. Before you
continue, open the song data in your sequencing software.
Connecting the MD or DAT
Connect the digital output connector of the UA-100 to the digital input connector of
your MD or DAT digital recorder.
