Operation Guide
Arming tracks before pressing the RECORD button is usually the best way to
work when tracking, because you can punch-in multiple tracks at the same time.
Pressing RECORD with no tracks armed and then punching with the record ready
buttons is a handy way to overdub individual tracks, because you can punch in and
out of individual tracks at different times.
Monitoring
The Monitor Mode buttons determine what you hear from the SDR24/96 Tape
Outputs. The SDR24/96 offers several familiar monitoring modes to facilitate
rehearsal, tracking, and overdubbing.
All Input
All Input is used for rehearsal and level setting. When All Input is on, both
armed and unarmed tracks monitor their inputs, and the Auto Input setting
has no effect.
To enable All Input:
♦
Press the ALL INPUT button. The LED above the button
lights to indicate that it’s on.
Auto Input
Auto Input is used for recording. Auto Input affects only tracks that are in
Record Ready (“armed”). Tracks that are not armed only monitor the
playback of previously recorded audio.
When Auto Input is on, armed tracks monitor their inputs in Stop, Fast
Forward, Rewind, and Record. In Play, you hear only what’s already recorded
on the tracks. This mode is used primarily for tracking and overdubbing,
where you want to hear what’s been previously recorded on the track before
the punch-in and after the punch-out. During the punch, you hear what is
presently being recorded.
When Auto Input (and All Input) is off, armed tracks always monitor their
inputs and unarmed tracks playback what’s been previously recorded. This
mode is used primarily for rehearsal and tracking, where you want to always
hear what you’re playing rather than what’s already recorded on that track.
To enable Auto Input:
♦
Press the AUTO INPUT button. The LED above the button
lights to indicate that it’s on.
Note: Auto Input is the default mode when the SDR24/96 is turned on.
All Input overrides Auto Input.
