THE DIFFERENT MIXES AND WHAT THEY’RE

NEEDED FOR

Now that you understand the different sources and different destinations used

during the three stages of the multitrack recording process, let’s look at each one

individually, without the other components getting in the way. Please note that these

illustrations show the controls in the order they are electronically, and omit controls that

don’t apply to the mix being explained. Here are the mixes that you will control during a

typical multitrack recording session:

MULTITRACK MIX

This mix goes from the sources (microphones or line inputs) to the tracks of the

multitrack recorder. It is controlled by the Channel Faders and sent via the two

Group Master Faders to the Group Output jacks. (If you need to record more than

two tracks at once, some signals will go to the multitrack directly from Channel

Faders via the Direct Out jacks.) In the multitrack mix, the goal is to set the controls

so that each track is recorded as loud as it can be without distorting the recorder.

For example, a microphone is plugged into channel 1 MIC IN port, and its level is set

by the TRIM control. The CHAN/MON REVERSE switch is left in the UP position.

After passing through the INSERT jack on the top panel, signal may then pass

through the 75 Hz filter (if its switch is down) and the EQ on its way to the Channel

Fader and MUTE switch. At this point, signal is available to the DIRECT OUT jack

(where it may be connected to the multitrack); in any case it then goes on to the

channel PAN, the GRP and L/R assignment switches.

The channel PAN affects what Group the mic will be sent to: panning hard left sends

the signal to GRP 1, panning hard right goes to GRP 2, and pan settings between

extreme left and right results in a mixture of both Groups. The mic is mixed with any

other channel sources feeding the same group, via the Group Master faders to the

selected track (in the illustration, Group and track 4).

Please note a key concept: you can go from any channel input to any of the group,

direct outs or main outputs. Inputs and tracks are independent of each other. You

can plug a mic into channel 1, and record it on track 4 without repatching.
