Adding sounds during mixdown 43 3 Turn on the CUE MIX TO STEREO switch. The cue mix function will be turned on, and the CUE MIX indicator in the display will light. With this setting, the signal of the CUE bus (the MIC/ LINE INPUT jack input signal) will be mixed into the ST bus. 4 Set the CUE LEVEL controls of input channels 1 and 2 in the 7-8 range. 5 Press the PLAY button to begin playback. If the MONITOR SELECT STEREO switch is on, you will be able to hear the track playback in your headphones or monitor speakers. 6 Play the audio sources that are connected to MIC/LINE INPUT jacks 1 and 2, and use the 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 is too high even when the GAIN control is rotated all the way to the LINE position, lower the CUE 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 controls 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 playback 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. 1 2 Track 1 Track 2 1 GAIN 2 GAIN 3 GAIN 4 GAIN LINE MIC MIC/ LINE PB CUE FLIP P A N L R 0 HIGH L E V E L 10 LINE MIC MIC/ LINE PB CUE FLIP P A N L R 0 HIGH L E V E L 10 LINE MIC MIC/ LINE PB CUE FLIP P A N L R 0 HIGH L E V E L 10 LINE MIC MIC/ LINE PB CUE FLIP P A N L R 0 HIGH L E V E L 10 -15 +15 -15 +15 -15 +15 -15 +15 MID MID MID MID -15 +15 -15 +15 -15 +15 -15 +15 LOW LOW LOW LOW -15 +15 -15 +15 -15 +15 -15 +15 AUX AUX AUX AUX Track 3 Track 4 CUE Bus CUE MIX TO STEREO MONITOR OUT L STEREO OUT L PHONES R R 1 PAN 2 1 PAN 2 1 PAN 2 1 PAN 2 ST Bus L R L R L R L R 10 10 10 10 9 9 9 9 8 8 8 8 7 7 7 7 6 6 6 6 5 5 5 5 4 4 4 4 3 3 3 3 2 2 2 2 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 10 10 9 9 8 8 7 7 6 6 5 5 4 4 3 3 2 2 1 1 0 0 1 2 3 4 STEREO Signal flow when adding external signals during mixdown -Owner's Manual
