Recording signal flow
1
With the DPS12’s default settings, signals input at INPUT jacks 1/2 are sent via
[INPUT GAIN]
controls to
physical tracks 1/2 of the recorder section.
2
Press the
[RECORD SELECT]
keys 1 and 2 on the top panel to cause tracks 1 and 2 to enter recording-ready
status.
3
Output signals from tracks 1 and 2 are directed to TRACK MIX channels 1/2 of the mixer section. At this time,
the input source signals (the signal input to the tracks selected by the
[RECORD SELECT]
keys) are output
whether the transport section is stopped or recording.
4
You may adjust the level and pan setting of the TRACK MIX channel 1/2 signals using the channel faders 1/2
and the
[PAN]
controls 1/2 on the top panel.
5
Signals that have passed through the channel faders and the
[PAN]
controls are mixed into a stereo signal, then
routed to the
[MASTER]
fader.
6
The signal adjusted by the
[MASTER]
fader for output level is output from the MASTER OUT jacks and the
OPTICAL OUT jacks.
