Enter Record Mode by pressing the M20d hardware RECORD button. In Record Mode

the M20d offers three main record and playback options, as follows:

1. Quick Capture: record up to 20 seconds of 24 bit unprocessed audio at 48kHz to

the M20d’s internal memory, and play it back.

2. Recording: record 20 channels of 24 bit unprocessed audio at 48kHz, including the

Aux inputs and main mix, to SD Card or USB Hard Drive, and play it back (when

media is inserted into the M20d SD Card slot or USB port).

3. Streaming: stream 20 channels of 24 bit unprocessed audio at 48kHz, including the

main mix, to a computer via USB, with a stereo return stream back to the M20d.

When you enter Record Mode, the M20d’s Main Toolbar displays the Encoder Assign

button, the Conﬁgure Record/Playback button, the Record transport controls, the

numerical Record/Play Counter and the Info button. Below is a screenshot of the

M20d’s touchscreen in Record Mode, using a Duo stage setup as an example.
