Adjusting the Tone
(Equalizer)
A two-band (low, high) or three-band (low, mid, high)
parametric equalizer is provided for each channel.
First make equalizer adjustments separately for each
channel. If you have recorded any stereo pairs, be sure
that the same settings are made for both tracks. Then,
while paying attention to the overall balance, make
final adjustments for equalizer, pan, and volume level
for each channel.
* If you adjust the equalizer while listening to the sound,
you may notice a clicking noise. This is not a malfunction.
If the noise is objectionable, make adjustments while the
sound is not playing.
1. Press the SELECT button for the track whose
equalizer setting you wish to adjust.
The button indicator lights, and the Track Mixer
screen appears in the display.
2. Press [F2 (Low)]. If “Low” does not appear in [F2],
first press [PAGE] until “Low” is displayed, and
then press [F2 (Low)].
3. Press [YES].
If “Digital In Lock” is Displayed
This indicates that the reference clock for the sam-
ple rate is set by the digital signal from the DIGI-
TAL IN connector. You can record using the digi-
tal connection.
If “Digital In Unlock” is Displayed
This indicates that no digital signal is being
received from the DIGITAL IN connector.
Alternatively, it may indicate that the sample rate
selected for the song does not match the sample
rate of the digital device connected to the DIGI-
TAL IN connector. In this state, you cannot
record using the digital connection.
