Turn this ON if you want to monitor the input directly
If you are using condenser mics, turn on the Phantom power switch. The sound will also be output directly from the digital output jack. * If a device that does not use phantom power is connected to the XLR type jacks, you must turn phantom power off, since supplying phantom power to such a device may cause malfunction.
The sound of the device connected to MIC 1 will be recorded on the left channel, and the sound of the device connected to MIC 2 will be recorded on the right channel. Use the Input sensitivity knobs to adjust the input level. For the best-quality recording, use the input sensitivity knobs to adjust the level until it is as high as you can get it without causing the Input peak indicator to light. Turn on the Input monitor switch, and use the Input monitor knob to adjust the monitor volume of the mic inputs. Do not connect anything to the input jacks that you are not using. * * If you are using 96 kHz PLAY/REC, only the COMPRESSOR & DE-ESSER and NOISE SUPPRESSOR & EQ effects can be applied. Howling could be produced depending on the location of microphones relative to speakers. This can be remedied by: 1.Changing the orientation of the microphone(s). 2.Relocating microphone(s) at a greater distance from speakers. 3.Lowering volume levels.
