n nUSING CHANNELS 5 AND 6

While the MT2X recorder section permits multitrack

recording on four tracks, the mixer section offers a total

of six input channels. The following are a few hints on

using the extra two channels for more effective, more

versatile recording.

* Once three of the four available recorder tracks have

been recorded using direct recording, overdubbing and

perhaps pingponging techniques, three more instru-

ments may be mixed and recorded on the remaining

track via mixer channels 4, 5 and 6.

* Once all four recorder tracks have been recorded, an

additional two instruments may be added via mixer

channels 5 and 6 at the mixdown stage.

When track 4 of the recorder is used to record an FSK

signal via the YMC2 MIDI Converter or an external

YMC10 MIDI Converter, the playback signals from this

track will frequently be used to control a stereo MIDI

device such as an RX-series Rhythm Programmer or

a Sequence Recorder which drives multiple tone

generators. The audio output from the Rhythm Pro-

grammer or tone generators can be mixed in with

the recorded material on tracks 1, 2 and 3 via mixer

channels 5 and 6. The use of channels 5 and 6 in this

application also permits easy application of effects to

the output of the MIDI devices.
