RECORDING
THE FIRST TRACK
STEP 1: CHANNEL-TO-TRACK ASSIGNMENT
The first step in making any recording is to assign the channel to which your instrument or other source is connected to one of the
recorder's tracks.
Depending on what you are recording, you might want to record a single instrument or other source on a single track of the tape, or
you might want to combine several instruments or other sources and record them on a single track. The MT100II offers two
"channel-to-track assignment" methods.
Direct Channel-to-Track Assignment
With this method, an instrument or source connected to one of
the mixer's channels
is fed directly to the correspondingly
numbered track of the recorder. You can record a single track
like this, or up to all four tracks simultaneously. Using this
method, only one input source can be recorded on a single
track.
For direct channel-to-track
assignment,
the REC
SELECT
switchs are set to the "number" position (1, 2,:3 or 4). For ex-
ample, if the channel
1 REC SELECT switch is set to "1," the
channel 1 signal will be sent directly to track 1 of the recorder.
This applies in the same way to all other channels and tracks.

Panned Channel-to-Track Assignment
The panned channel-to-track
assignment
method
makes
it
possible to assign several of the mixer's channels to a single
recorder track, or single mixer channels can be assigned to a
track of a different numbers.
Each of the REC SELECT switches has either an "L" or "R"
position. These correspond to the left (L) and right (R) chan-
nels of the mixer's stereo output. If track 1's REC SELECT
switch is set to "L" for example, track 1 will receive any signals
which are "panned" LEFT. Therefore, it is possible to send the
signal from channel 1 to track 4 by selecting "R" on track 4's
REC SELECT switch and panning channel 1 RIGHT. In addi-
tion, any other channels which are panned RIGHT will also be
recorded on track 4 if the faders for those channels are at
raised. The assignment illustrated below is achieved by set-
ting track 4's REC SELECT switch to "R" and setting the PAN
controls on channels 1, 2 and 3 fully right.
[Note] When a REC SELECT switch is set to "L" or "R" the
track will also record signal from the "LEFT or RIGHT
side" of the AUX
return. Therefore, effects can be
recorded along with input sources.
