Step 1 — Recording the Drums 9
MT50 User’s Guide
Step 1 Recording the Drums
1. Connect the drum machine to MIC/LINE input 1.
2. Set Module 1s GAIN switch to LINE.
3. Set Module 1s CUE slider to about 8.
4. Set Module 1s REC SEL switch to 1.
The REC indicator starts flashing.
5. Press the PAUSE button.
6. Press the REC button.
The REC indicator lights up.
7. Start the drum machine
8. Raise Module 1s fader gradually.
You should be able to hear the drum machine and Module 1’s level
meter should light up.
9. Set the fader so that the +6 light comes on occasionally at the max-
imum input level.
The module fader is used to set the recording level and should be set in con-
junction with the level meter. Use the CUE slider and MONI-
TOR/PHONES control to adjust the monitoring levels. These controls
affect only the monitor signals.
10. Press the PAUSE button to start recording.
11. Start the drum machine.
12. When the drum part is nished, press STOP to stop recording.
13. Press REW to rewind the tape.
It will stop automatically at approximately 999, because we set ZERO
STOP to ON.
14. Set Module 1s REC SEL switch to OFF.
The REC indicator goes off.
15. Press PLAY to listen to the drum track.
If you like the track, go to “Step 2 — Recording the Bass” once you fin-
ish this procedure. If you don’t like it, re-record it.
16. Disconnect the drum machine.
17. Set Module 1s fader to 0.
18. Press REW to rewind the tape to 000.
Note: If the drum machine volume is very low you can not achieve the opti-
mum recording level with the maximum fader setting, set the fader to 0, and
set the GAIN switch to the middle position (for instruments). Raise the fader
again and set as appropriate.
! The easiest song to record is one
that starts with a drum intro. If your
song starts with drums, bass, and
synth all on the first bar, you’ll need
to record a count-in.
