GAIN controls of input channels 1 and 2 to
adjust the input level.
Use the stereo level meter to check the input levels
together with the track playback sound. If the level

Signal flow when adding external signals during mixdown
LEVEL control. If necessary, you can use the CUE
PAN controls to adjust the stereo position. (If you
are adding a stereo source, set the CUE PAN con-
trols of input channels 1 and 2 to far left and far
right respectively.)
7
After you have adjusted the input signal levels
from MIC/LINE INPUT jacks 1 and 2, start
recording on your master recorder, and play-
back the MD4S from the beginning of the
song.
When recording is completed, playback the master
recorder to hear the recorded result.
Tip: The input signals from LINE INPUT jacks 5–8
can be added to the mix during mixdown. However
since LINE INPUT jacks 5/6 and 7/8 are stereo pairs,
LINE INPUT jacks 5 and 7 will be mixed directly to
the L channel of the ST bus, and LINE INPUT jacks
6 and 8 will be mixed directly to the R channel of the
ST bus. If you wish to use microphones or to adjust
the pan, you should use the MIC/LINE INPUT jacks.
