Reference [Mixer]
This section explains the functions and operation of the two mixer types built into the MRS-1608.
The mixer of the MRS-1608 is divided into two sections:
an “input mixer” that processes the input signals from the
INPUT jacks, and a “track mixer” that processes the
signals from the audio tracks and the drum/bass track of
the recorder section. Details of each mixer are described
below.
◆ Input mixer
Adjusts the sensitivity for signals from the INPUT jacks
and GUITAR/BASS INPUT jacks and assigns these
signals to the recorder tracks.
The input mixer serves to adjust the following
parameters.
• Input signal sensitivity
• Input signal recording level
• Input signal phase
• Level of signal sent to STEREO SUB-OUT jack
If an input signal is not assigned to a track (recording
track not selected), the input signal will be sent straight to
the [MASTER] fader. In this condition, the following
parameters can be adjusted.
• Input signal panning
• Send/return effect intensity
HINT
In the 8-track recording mode, you can set the panning value
and send level for each input.
◆ Track mixer
Serves to process the playback signals of the recorder
tracks 1 – 16 and the sound of the drum/bass track, and to
mix these signals to stereo. The mixer allows you to
adjust the volume with faders and set panning and EQ for
each track.
The track mixer lets you adjust the following parameters
for each track.
•Track volume
•Track panning
•Track phase
•V-take used for the track (audio tracks only)
• High frequency range EQ boost/cut amount,
turnover frequency
• Mid frequency range EQ boost/cut amount,
turnover frequency, and bandwidth
• Low frequency range EQ boost/cut amount,
turnover frequency
• Send/return effect intensity
• Signal level sent to STEREO SUB-OUT jack
• Stereo link (

p. 82) settings (audio tracks 1 –
8 only)
HINT
Audio tracks 9/10 – 15/16 and the drum track are stereo
channels. For these, parameter settings except phase and V-
take number (audio tracks only) are linked for the L/R
channels.
