Multifunction tuner
In addition to standard chromatic tuning,
the on-board multifunction tuner also sup-
ports 7-string guitar, 5-string bass and
various drop tunings.
Comprehensive built-in mixer
Using the mixer, you can make a
mix for monitoring. When simultaneously
recording guitar and vocals, for example,
you can adjust volume balance, panning
and reverb levels.
Moreover, you can also adjust the balance
between the built-in mixer and the sound
sent from a computer.
Versatile effect functions
Built-in insert effects can be applied to
specific channel paths, and two-types
of send/return effects work via the mixer
send/return. These effects can be applied
when recording, of course, but they can
also be applied to only the monitor output.
For example, when recording vocals, you
can apply reverb only to the monitor signal
to make singing easier.
Supports input from a variety of
sources, including guitars, mics and
line level instruments
The two onboard jacks include one high-
impedance input. Both accept XLR and
standard phone plugs and can provide
phantom power (24 or 48V).
Many sources are supported from high-
impedance guitars and basses to dynamic
and condenser microphones and line-
level devices like synthesizers. In addition,
the built-in high-performance condenser
microphones are convenient for recording
acoustic guitars and vocals.
