So I'm thinking about purchasing a tsr8 to go with my tascam m216. I was wondering how one would go about setting up monitoring with this combination and what the workflow would look like given that it's a two head deck.
How would one monitor from the mixer while it receives audio from the deck, whilst also tracking overdubs to the deck. Just trying to get my head around this.
The m216 is a 4bus mixer so I'm guessing I monitor the deck into channels 1-8, (1-2 if I monitor only the trs8 stereo outs) and send them to the first two busses which then get sent to the masterfaders of the desk, which I monitor from. From there I can send whatever remaining desk channels I'm overdubbing with to bus 3-4 for max of two inputs out to the deck at the same time as listening back to what I have recorded already (and am monitoring on bus1-2). Am I on the right track?
Thanks!
