5. After selecting all the tracks that you want to
change, press the F4 [t] button.
A “Erase selected tracks. Are you sure?” pop-up
message appears.
6. Press the F2 [YES] button to change all the tracks at
once.
CAUTION
When the track type is changed, the audio for that track
is cleared, so the track will have no audio signal. If you
make a mistake, however, you can undo this operation
to restore the track type and audio on it. (See "Undoing
an operation" on page 47.)
NOTE
• When the track type is changed, the input assignment is
cleared, so you should make assignments now.
• If you set track 9/10 as a mono track, it will become track
9, for example. Likewise, if 31/32 is set to mono, it will
become track 31. (The even numbered track is skipped.)
Assigning inputs to mono tracks
1. When the recorder is stopped, press the ASSIGN
button to open the Assign screen.
2. Use the SELECT button of each track or the CURSOR
(5/b/g/t) buttons to move the cursor to the
mono track to which you want to assign a recording
source.
3. Press the SOURCE button of the desired input (A to
H) or turn the JOG/DATA dial to set the input source
of each mono track.
4. After making the settings, press the ASSIGN button
or the HOME button to return to the Home screen.
Selecting the input sources
This unit is equipped with eight inputs (INPUTS A to H),
and each of them has a standard XLR/TRS combo jack.
In addition to microphones and line level instruments,
you can connect guitars to the INPUT H jack. When
connecting a guitar, set the LINE-GUITAR switch on the
rear panel to GUITAR.
TIP
When connecting an electric-acoustic guitar with a built-
in preamp or an active-type electric guitar, or when using
an effects pedal, for example, between the guitar and this
unit, set the LINE-GUITAR switch on the rear panel to
LINE.
Assigning inputs
When using this unit, "assigning inputs" means setting
the recording source for each track to INPUT A to H on
the Assign screen.
Assign screen
NOTE
• By default, the recording sources of tracks 1
to
8
are
assigned to inputs A to H, in that order.
• Assignments are saved when you save a song or turn the
unit off. Likewise, assignments are loaded when you load
a song.
This unit can simultaneously record a maximum of eight
tracks. You can assign one input source to multiple tracks
simultaneously, but you cannot assign multiple input
sources to the same track. You can also assign an input
source to a direct stereo bus.
Setting the track type
You can set tracks 9/10–31/32 to be used as either stereo
or mono tracks. By default, they are all stereo tracks.
Change these settings on the Assign screen.
1. When the recorder is stopped, press the ASSIGN
button to open the Assign screen.
2. Use the STEREO SELECT button of each track or the
CURSOR (5/b/g/t) buttons to move the cursor
to a track that you want to change.
3. Press the F3 [ST/MONO] button to change the type
of the selected track.
4. If you want to change the type of other tracks,
repeat steps 2 and 3.
