The overall level of the mixed signals sent on the
stereo buss to the LINE OUT jacks is determined by
the MASTER fader.
p- Buss ———----
The term "buss" refers to a signal path in the mixing
network of the X-28H. The stereo buss (left and
right) Is the main signal path of the X-28H; the PAN
controls are used to direct the signals on this path.
Other busses on the X-28H include the AUX buss,
which sends the mixed signals to the AUX SEND
jack and receives a stereo input via the AUX RE¬
TURN jacks, and the monitor buss, which carries the
input and/or tape signals to the MONITOR OUT and
PHONES jacks.
Recording Bass to Track 2 and Keyboard to Track 3
Overdubbing —
Overdubbing, as mentioned in the introduction to mul¬
titrack recording at the beginning of this manual, is the
process of recording one part (track) while listening to
a previously recorded part in perfect synchronization.
In this example, we'll first overdub an electric bass on
track 2. Once that is accomplished, we'll overdub a
backing keyboard part to track 3.
1. Plug the instrument into INPUT 2.
2. Set the MONITOR switch to MONMIX + LINE, and
the INPUT B switch to MONMIX.
3. Select 2 with the REC SELECT switch for tape track
2. The flashing number 2 in the display indicates
that track 2 is now set up for recording. Also press
the REC button to enable input monitoring with
track 2's level meter.
4. Now, adjust the level of the signal as you did in
steps #5 and #6 in the previous section. The MAS¬
TER fader should be at its optimum level (around
7), as should the INPUT 2 fader. Also, adjust the
TRIM control for INPUT 2 to a suitable level.
5. To monitor the previously recorded track, make
sure that the settings you made in steps #7 and #9
in the previous section are still intact.
6. You'll probably want to practice the bass part before
you actually record it. To do this, press PLAY to play
back the original recording and play the bass part
as you listen to the mix of the two signals.
7. Now, record the new part by pressing the PLAY and
the REC button simultaneously.
