Tascam DS-M7.1 ユーザーズマニュアル

Many pre-mixes for film are made that are greater 
than 8 tracks.  The DS-M7.1 can still be useful in 
these conditions, as explained here.

If a large format (24 or more output busses) console 
is used, a number (8 or 16) of the busses can be used 
to feed the stem recorder.

The returns from the stem recorder can then be fed 
back through the console inputs and routed to a dif-
ferent set of eight busses, which are then used to feed 
the DS-M7.1 for monitoring.

Although this does not allow BUS/RTN switching, 
the DS-M7.1’s monitoring control (bass management 
and downmix facilities, etc.) can still be used to great 
effect in this environment.
