Recording

! For details of relative screen on the computer, see Recording panel on
page 18.
! Recording of the input sound is not possible with ITCH when the
[MIC/AUX THRU] selector switch is set to [ON].
1 Select the channel to be recorded.
Perform this operation on the computer's screen.
! [MIX]: The sound output from the [MASTER OUT 1] and
[MASTER OUT 2] terminals can be recorded.
! [AUX]: The sound of the [MIC/ AUX] channel can be recorded
alone.
2 Adjust the recording level.
Adjust the recording level using the appropriate controls for the source
being recorded. The recording meter in the software shows the signal
level that will be recorded to disk. We recommend that you set your levels
so the loudest part of the mix causes the meter to enter the red zone only
briefly.
