Ok, I've just bought myself a second hand Portastudio, and I have a quick question.
I have one mic attached, as the only input source, to input one.
I turn the pan on input 1 to the full left position, and set track 1 to "Buss L". This should now record input 1 to track 1, and it does so.
However, when I also set track 2 to "Buss R", I also get input 1 being fed through to track 2! Even though I have the input fully panned to left! However it isn't sent through at full volume. If I pan input 1 all the way to right, it's sent though at full volume to track 2, but still gets though to track one at a lower volume.
This behaviour somewhat defies my understanding of recording from left or right buss. Could someone please explain this behaviour, is the machine behaving as it should?
Please excuse my probably stupidity, I'm probably missing something or miss-understanding really obvious!
Many thanks in advance,
Doug
