TRANSFERRING TRACKS DIGITALLY BETWEEN UNITS
You can send tracks from the Master HDR to the Slaved HDR digitally. If you need to send
the other direction, simply change which machine is master and which is slave. Reverse the
In/Out cable and follow the steps below.
On the Master deck, MUTE any tracks not being sent down. You can only “record” two tracks
at a time, so if you want to send all 8 tracks down and have them stay separate, you must
send two at a time and mute the remaining six. If you are sending all 8 tracks down into a
stereo mix, simply don’t mute any.
To begin:
1)
Press SETTING button on Receiving HDR. Turn dial to Input.
2)
Press ENTER. Turn dial to Digital. Press ENTER.
3)
Arm the track or tracks you are recording TO. The left signal will automatically go to
the left track, and the right signal will go to the right track.
4)
On the Sending HDR, MUTE any tracks you don’t want recorded .
5)
Press PLAY and RECORD on the Master HDR. The Slave HDR should go into
Record. You should see the levels being reocrded onto the Slave deck.
Tech-Tip: Always make sure the PreEQ volumes are at 0db on both decks when
transferring tracks.
