Press enough times to choose the
audio source you want to record.
Each time you press [MIC SELECT], its button will
change color. Press the button until it is lighted in the
appropriate color, the one corresponding to the audio
source you want to record.
MEMO
If cables are plugged into both the MIC 1 (XLR-type or
phone-type) and the GUITAR jack, the input from MIC 1
jack will be cancelled.
If you’re recording from the internal mics ([MIC
SELECT] is lit green), the sound of the internal mics will
not be heard from the speakers. You’ll need to use
headphones if you want to audition the sound of the
internal mics.
NOTE
You must not connect a mic to both MIC jacks (XLR-type
and phone-type) of the same number. Doing so will
damage the mic and/or the CD-2.
Auditioning the sound of an instrument
connected to the LINE IN jacks
The sound from the LINE IN jacks is always active,
regardless of the [MIC SELECT] setting.
If you want to record only the sound of an instrument
connected to the LINE IN jacks, turn [MIC SELECT] off
(unlit).
If you don’t want to record the sound of an instrument
connected to the LINE IN jacks, turn the line input “Off.”

level of the internal mics will be adjusted automatically.
