Recording the first track (Direct Recording)
On the MD4S, the signals that are input to the MIC/LINE INPUT jacks 1–4 can be recorded
directly to tracks 1–4 (direct recording). Since you simply need to connect the audio source to MIC/
LINE INPUT jack 1 if you wish to record on track 1, or to MIC/LINE INPUT jack 3 if you wish to
record on track 3, this method is convenient when you will be recording each part separately.
