I want to use a portastudio for performance purposes. For my final mix, I want to make sure 2 tracks are panned fully left, while 2 are panned fully right. The manual is a little cryptic about this so I just want to make sure I have it understand:
When doing a direct record of tracks 1-4, what will the panning of each of those tracks be? Does the pan pot on each track do anything when in direct record (i.e., if they are all in the middle, is that how it will turn out)?
Second, I want to send (but not return) effects from one side (L or R) as a mono signal to an outboard mixer. How can I make sure I am only sending one side? Assuming I'm able to hard pan 2 tracks to L and 2 tracks to R like I mention above, would it just be a matter of turning up the effect 1 knob on the correct tracks?
Now let's say I'm sending R out directly as usual, and I'm also sending R out of the effects send, so that I'm playing both at once. Is there a simple way to alter the balance between those two signals, like wet/dry? I see how I could turn the fx send down but if I turn down the fader on the channel I'm sending, won't both signals turn down?
