Recording
To record, open the recording app shown on the LAUNCHER screen that suits the type of recording (See
“Recording apps” on page 29).
After launching the recording app, the input levels of each track and their mix must also be set in order to
record at suitable levels.
This unit has a recording guide function designed to prevent users from accidentally skipping important
steps or doing them out of order. This function can only be used with the MANUAL app. (When shipped
new the recording guide is on by default.)
After the MANUAL app is launched, operation procedures will be shown. Follow their instructions to make
adjustments.
When the recording guide is active, setting screens open in the following order, enabling settings to be
made in the correct sequence.
