Recording to the SDR-3
Prior to recording to the SDR-3, you want to ensure that
the signal being recorded is properly mixed. Refer to the
text on “REC LEVEL LEDs” to ensure a good level. Once you
are happy with your overall mix, follow the steps below to
record.
In stop mode, press the REC button once to place the SDR-

of the audio to be recorded and adjust the REC VOL control
if necessary.
Press the REC button a second time to begin recording.

pause the recording without creating a new track. This is
useful for recording several sections of a recording session
into a single cohesive track without breaking it up into
several tracks.
