Since the AUX SEND signal is mono, the tape tracks will all be heard in the center of the stereo image. — General Suggestions — • Record and mix at relatively low sound levels. The longer your recording or mixdown session, the less accurate your hearing will be. Listening to playback at high volume for even short periods of time reduces your ability to hear high frequencies. The less high frequencies you hear, the more you tend to boost them, until you have a recording that is all highs. If you work marathon sessions, try to give your ears a five- or ten-minute rest every two hours. • Ask others for advice. If you know someone whose sound you admire, ask them whatthey did to get that sound. If you know someone who has been down this road just a little longer than you have, ask them whatthey’ve learned. By the same token, share your experiences with others. No one has a monopoly on creativity or knowledge; in fact, the more you share with others, the more they’ll share with you. MULTITRACK RECORDING TIPS 31 — Tape — • Keep your cassette tapes at least three feet away from any magnetic fields — especially those of computer monitors, speakers, TVs and telephones — they can damage or even erase what you’ve recorded. • Clearly and logically label your tapes. If your creative juices are flowing at all, you’ll soon amass a whole box worth of cassette recordings. If your tapes are not labeled, you’ll waste a lot of time trying to find the one you need. ® After finishing a recording on cassette, you should punch out the two record-protect tabs so as not to inadvertently erase your newly created masterpiece. (Be sure to take BOTH tabs out, since you’ve recorded to all four tracks.) — Settings — • Start all your recordings by “zero-ing” the controls— that is, setting them all to their 0, OFF or minimum position. Adjust only those controls which pertain to the operation at hand. • When using the EQ controls to brighten the sound, the first impulse is to turn the HI control up. Keep in mind, however, that you can get a similar effect by turning the LO control down instead. • If you haven’t already done so, we suggest you take time to read through one of the “least readable” parts of the manual: the Panel Controls and Terminals section. Much of the information in the section will be obvious, but if there are some functions and settings of the X-28H that have you baffled or just plain curious, there’s no better place to get more information. • You should also familiarize yourself with the signal paths of the X-28H by referring often to the signal flow and block diagrams in this manual. These, too, are undoubtedly difficultto understand at first glance, but the effort you make in following the signal paths as you read through the instructions will pay off in a greater understanding of the entire multitrack record process. — Recording — • Make a blank “track chart” for your recordings and photocopy several of them. Write down what instrument or part was recorded to which track, and keep notes as to what pan, level and effects settings are needed. Each track sheet should refer to a different tape, or even a different song. • Plan your recordings so that each successive track moves up in frequency range. ln
