Mixdown
After overdubbing and ping-pong recording, you can mix all track data into two channel stereo data and
record it onto your master recorder. This final process of multitrack recording is called “mixdown.”
The mixdown signals are usually output from the mixer’s STEREO OUT L/R. Connect the master recorder
inputs to the STEREO OUT L/R connectors.
• Initialize the D-108.
• Check the sampling frequency. Select the desired sampling frequency, if necessary.
Do not change the sampling frequency until you finish the session.
1.Set all tracks to the SAFE status.
2.Locate the top of the Program on the D-108.
3.Set the master recorder to REC-STANDBY mode.
4.Play the Program from the beginning and adjust
the recording level on the master recorder while
adjusting the tonal quality and mix balance of the
playback sound from the mixer. (Rehearsal)
Adjust the input level on the master recorder so that
the STEREO OUT L/R meters on the mixer respond to
the same degree as the level meters on the master
recorder.
5.Locate the top of the Program.
6.Start recording on the master recorder. (Take)
7.Press the PLAY button on the D-108 to start
playing the Program from the beginning.
8.When mixdown is completed, stop the master
recorder and the D-108.
Recording in a new Program
The explanation so far has been based on one Program set up when you format a current drive (E-IDE hard
disk or SCSI disk). You may create up to 99 Programs, depending on the available disk space. Multiple
Programs do not interfere with each other. You can record, play, and edit each Program independently,
which facilitates song management. This section explains how to set up a new Program on the disk. Refer to
the main User’s Guide for more information regarding Programs.
1.While the D-108 is stopped, hold down the HOLD/
> key and press the STORE key.
The display indicates [Select PGM!] momentarily, then
shows the title of Program 1. The Program number
and [SURE?] flash.
2.Turn the JOG dial clockwise to select [New
Program?].
The “?” mark of [New Program?] , and [SURE?] flash,
indicating that you can set up a new Program.
3.Press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The D-108 sets up a new Program (Program 2) and
enters the [Title Edit] menu in SETUP mode, showing
the following display. In this example, we use the default
title. You can change the title later. Refer to the User’s
Guide for more information.
4.Press the EXIT/NO key.
The D-108 exits SETUP mode, and the top of Program 2
in ABS Time Base (ABS 0) appears.
Refer to the next page for more information on how
to select the desired Program from multiple
Programs on the disk.
