Hi,
This is my first post, so forgive me if this is in the wrong place!
Just bought a Tascam 414 mkii for £5 off gumtree, just waiting for a power adapter as it didn't come with one.
I just want to make sure I understand this correctly -
In the user manual it says that you can record "up to 6 sources simultaneously" using the 4 standard mixer channels and the 2 stereo channels. This is great, as for my band we can record the Vocals, bass, guitar and sax using the standard 4, and put the keyboards stereo out into 5-6, and a simple drum overhead setup in 7-8. I know the stereo channels only have a "level" pot, but I'm not too worried about this.
My question is - once these 6 sources are recorded through the 6 channels, when it comes to mix down, can all 6 of these channels still be faded up and down independently? E.g. If I wanted to turn down guitar on channel 1, I would just lower fader one and all other tracks would be in the mix? Does the same go for the two stereo tracks? Could I just turn down the 5-6 "Level" pot to turn down the drum overheads?
Thanks,
Paul
