E
INPUT-FLIP switch
This switch is used to select the destination of the signal input from the MIC/LINE INPUT
jacks and the tape signal. With the switch in the MIC/LINE position (
), the MIC/LINE
input signal is fed to the ST bus via the input channel and the tape signal is fed to the CUE
bus.
With the switch in the TAPE position (
), the MIC/LINE input 1, 3 (2, 4) signal is fed to the
ST L (ST R) bus and the tape signal is fed to the ST bus via the input channel.
F
PAN control
This rotary control is used to adjust the stereo position (left or right) of input channel signal
that will be sent to the Stereo bus. For recording via the Stereo bus (See page 22), turn this
control all the way to the left to assign the signal to odd tracks (1, 3), and all the way to the
right to assign the signal to even tracks (2, 4). For mixdown you can use it to pan the playback
signal in the stereo mix.
G
Fader
For recording ([INPUT-FLIP] switch: MIC/LINE), use the fader to adjust the level of the
input channel signal that is recorded to a track. For mixdown ([INPUT-FLIP] switch: TAPE),
use it to adjust the playback level of each track. Unity gain is obtained when the fader is
positioned about the 7–8 mark.
Unity gain
:
The condition where the output signal and input signal are at the same level,
with signal-to-noise ratio and distortion set to optimum.
