Setting the guitar as track 1 recording source
The default settings are for the INPUT A channel to be
the recording source for tracks 1 and 3 and for the
INPUT B channel to be the recording source for tracks
2 and 4.
In “Connecting and setting the input sources” above,
we made a guitar the input source for the INPUT A
channel and a built-in mic (MIC B) the input source
for the INPUT B channel. Therefore, the guitar is
already set to record to tracks 1 and 3 and MIC B is
ready to record to tracks 2 and 4.
As a result, there is no need to change the input
channel assignments to record the guitar to track 1
in this example. See “Adding another recording (1)”
on page 21 and “Adding another recording (2)” on
page 22 for how to change track recording sources.
Adjusting the input level and monitoring
Use the INPUT A channel LEVEL knob to adjust the
guitar input level.
Set the LEVEL knob so that the INPUT A channel OL
indicator does not light even when the loudest sound
to be recorded is input. If the indicator continues to
light even when the LEVEL knob is turned down, the
guitar signal itself is too loud. In this case, lower the
output level on the guitar.
OL indicator
When you play the guitar, its input level is shown by
the
A
meter on the screen.
