Applications

Mixdown

You may leave the ADAT connected to the INSERT jacks for mixdown;
there's no need to repatch to the LINE IN jacks.
Make the connections according to the procedure in the "Connections"
chapter.
1. Connect the MAIN OUTs (-10 dBV or +4 dBu, depending on the
deck) to the inputs of the mixdown deck.
2. Connect the outputs of the mixdown deck to the TAPE IN jacks.
3. Connect the [MONITOR OUT] jacks to the inputs of your control
room monitor amplifier.
4. Press the [PHONES/MONITOR] switch down so it is in the TAPE
position.
5. Put the mixdown deck into record/pause mode, play the ADAT,
and adjust the mix and level controls of the mixer for the desired
level. Set the MASTER fader up to the maximum, and adjust the
input controls of the mixdown deck until its meters give the desired
reading. You will also be able to see the levels on the mixer itself;
check to make sure the output of the mixdown deck is set to
nominal (unity gain).
By monitoring through the mixdown deck, you'll be able to hear if
there is any distortion in that deck's electronics.
