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.
Step 1 — Recording the Drums
1. Connect the drum machine to MIC/LINE input 1.
2. Set Module 1's GAIN switch to LINE.
3. Set Module 1's CUE slider to about 8.

8. Raise Module 1's 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.
Note:
If the drum machine volume is very low you can not achieve the opti-
3
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 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 finished, 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 1's REC SEL switch to OFF.
The REC indicator goes off.
