MD recorder

This is an example for connecting the RFX-300 between a multi-
track recorder (cassette MTR, MD MTR or similar) and a sound
source (microphone, guitar, rhythm machine or similar). Monaural
sound sources should be connected to the INPUT L/MONO jack.
Stereo sources should be connected to the INPUT L and R jacks. 
In this configuration, the signal from the microphone or instrument

This is an example for connecting the RFX-300 to the
send/return jacks of a multi-track recorder. Connect the
send jack of the MTR to the INPUT L/MONO jack of
the RFX-300, and connect the OUTPUT L/R jacks of
the RFX-300 to the return jacks (or the stereo line input
jacks) of the MTR. 

This is an example for processing the master L/R
output of a multi-track recorder with the RFX-300 and
performing mixdown (mixing multiple tracks onto two
final stereo tracks) on a master recorder (MD, DAT, or
stereo cassette). The balance between original sound
and effect sound is adjusted at the RFX-300.

Recording (1) (Insert) 

Recording (2) (Send/Return) 

Mixdown 

can be sent to the input of
the multi-track recorder
after effect processing. The
balance between original
sound and effect sound is
adjusted at the RFX-300. 

In this configuration, the RFX-300 should be
set its outputs send only the effect sound, and
the balance between original sound and effect
sound is adjusted at the multi-track recorder.
If the multi-track recorder is equipped with
stereo send jacks, it is also possible to input a
stereo send signal to the RFX-300.
