9 – Mixdown and mastering

Mixdown

Adjusting the volumes and stereo positions of the recorded tracks to create a

well-balance stereo mix is called mixdown.

Level and balance

Use the TRACK 1–4 LEVEL knobs to adjust the relative balance between

tracks. Then, use the MASTER LEVEL knob to adjust the overall level.
Watching the and level meters on the display, adjust the levels until

they are suitable. If the volume is too loud, the sound will be distorted.

NOTE

The track level meters on the display show the recorded signal levels on

the tracks. Therefore, these meters do not change even when the TRACK

LEVEL knobs are adjusted.

TIP

You do not need to keep the entire song at the same volume. For example,

you could gradually increase the volume during a guitar solo.

Stereo position (panning)

Use the PAN knob of TRACK 1 or 2 to adjust the left-right stereo position of

the track.
If TRACK 3 or TRACK 4 is a stereo track, use its PAN (BAL) knob to adjust the

balance of its left and right channels.
If TRACK 3 or TRACK 4 is a mono track, use its PAN (BAL) knob to adjust the

left-right stereo position of the track as with TRACK 1 and 2.

Creating stereo master tracks

When you are satisfied with the mix of your tracks, you can mix them down to

a stereo master track.
A stereo master recorded by this unit is saved as part of the song, and can be

recorded by an external stereo recorder. It can also be converted by the unit

into a WAV file and exported to a computer where the sound can be processed

further or combined with other recordings. (See “Exporting stereo master

NOTE

Only one stereo master can be made in a song at a time.

Setting the starting and ending points

Before you start creating a stereo master track, you must set the starting and

ending points. The part of the song between the IN and OUT points will be

recorded as the stereo master track. Ordinarily, the beginning of the song is

set as the IN point and the end of the song is set as the OUT point.
Press the F3 [IN] button at the point where you want to start the stereo master

track to set the IN (starting) point and press the F4 [OUT] button at the point

where you want to end it to set the OUT (ending) point.
For details about adjusting IN and OUT points, see “Setting IN and OUT points”

Creating a stereo master track

After setting the IN and OUT points, you can make the stereo master track.
