THE RECORDING PROCESS
Recording with the MT3X is a very simpie process. A minimum of equipment wiii allow you to create fairly sophisti
cated recordings: the MT3X, a pair of monitor headphones, and an instrument, microphone, or other signal source.
The multitrack recording process can be basically broken down into the following steps:
1. Record the First Track.
a) Channel-to-track Assignment.
b) Set Record Level.
c) Record.
2. Overdub the Remaining Tracks.
a) Channel-tp-track assignment for each overdub.
b) Set record level for each overdub.
c) Record the overdub.
3. Ping-pong and Overdub More Tracks (if necessary).
4. Mixdown.
a) Set up for monitoring the mix.
b) Set up a rough mix and add effects.
c) Finalize and rehearse the mix.
d) Connect the MT3X ST OUT jacks to a stereo cassette recorder.
e) Record (from the MT3X to the stereo cassette recorder).
These steps (and what the recording terms mean) will be described in detail below, so its a good idea to read through
the following sections in sequence in order to get a clear picture of the overall recording process.
