5.7.3.3. Recording mode
There are five Record Modes :
•
Mono records signals on the left input and the metering shows one channel.
•
Stereo records left and right inputs and has stereo metering.
•
Dual Level Mono records the left channel normally and the right channel as the
left channel but with 12dB attenuation (i.e. 12dB reduction in level). It uses
stereo metering.
•
Dalet Mono records on the left input and replicates this onto the left and right
outputs, thus giving a stereo recording that has both the left and right channels
with the same level. It uses stereo metering.
