Applying an effect only to the monitor signal
By making skillful use of direct recording and the MONITOR SELECT switches, you can
apply effects only to the monitor signal so that tracks are recorded without effects. For exam-
ple when recording vocals, you can let the vocalist monitor their voice with reverb, but record
the vocal on the track without effects. The following will explain the example of monitoring
tracks 1–3 while you record a vocal on track 4.
1
Connect the AUX SEND 1 jack to the input
jack of your external effect processor, and
connect the output jacks of the effect proces-
sor to the LINE input jacks 5 and 6. Make set-
tings on your effect processor so that it will
output only the processed sound.
2
Connect the vocal mic to MIC/LINE INPUT
jack 4.
3
Set the FLIP switch of input channels 1–4 to
“MIC/LINE (
).”
4
Press REC SELECT button 4.
The track record indicator (DIR 4) will blink, and
the vocal will be recorded directly to track 4. Make
sure that the other track record indicators are
dark.
5
Raise the CUE LEVEL controls of input chan-
nels 1–4.
The recording source of track 4 (vocal without the
effect) and the playback of tracks 1–3 can now be
monitored via the CUE bus.
6
Rotate the AUX control of input channel 4
toward the “1” position.
The vocal signal will be sent to the effect processor
connected to the AUX SEND 1 jack.
7
Raise level control 5/6.
Only the vocal effect sound will be sent to the ST
bus.
8
Turn on the MONITOR SELECT CUE switch
and MONITOR SELECT STEREO switch.
With these settings, the signal of the CUE bus (the
playback of tracks 1–3 and the unprocessed vocal)
and the signal of the ST bus (vocal effect sound)
can be monitored together.
