If amicrophone is plugged into mic input 1, and youhave selected the post ADC option you can split therecording and the live mix of this signal in the fol-lowing way:Press channel 1’s SEL key, followed by the on-screenDIRECT OUT button for channel 1. This sends the post-ADC direct out signal to the multitrack recorder(assuming that all the patching, etc. is configuredappropriately). For the live mix, channel 1 is set as aninput fed by M/L 1, and assigned to the stereo buss.Now whatever changes you make to the channel donot affect what goes to multitrack.Obviously, the signal feeding the multitrack is dry,and if you want to use any effects such as compres-sor, reverb, etc. while recording, you will have to usean analog insert loop.This feature is also useful in the studio, where thepost ADC direct outputs can feed the multitrack, andthe tape return signals return to the channels, whichare set as returns, rather than as inputs. This saves theuse of Aux 1-2 as a tape return path, and frees up theaux sends for use as multiple cue mixes and effectsends.
