Recording in Stereo<br />

▶ Before powering the console, plug a pair of loudspeakers into the XLRs<br />

on the rear of the console labelled M1 LS O/P (this is the first set of<br />

stereo speaker outputs), and the DAW audio connections are in place<br />

using the 25-way D-type connectors on the rear of the console.<br />

When the console is booted for the very first time, the <strong>AMS</strong> <strong>Neve</strong> default<br />

Stereo Recording Setup will be sent to the console.<br />

This sets the states of various controls, routing, metering and monitoring<br />

selections, and presumes that the console will be used for Recording in<br />

stereo.<br />

(If you wish to change the default setup when the console is powered up -<br />

or even create custom setups of your own - select the relevant option in<br />

the Settings screen).<br />

Now set the channel fader to -10dB and the channel strip monitor (DAW)<br />

knobs to the 12 o'clock position.<br />

With the default Stereo Recording setup, the following states will be set on<br />

the main Master Panel:<br />

Metering options<br />

• Channel meters set to CH I/P<br />

• 8T meters set to MON<br />

• 2T meters set to MIX<br />

Cue Mix panel (applies to both Cues)<br />

• Utility set to MIX<br />

• AUX 1 - 6 set to 5 and On.<br />

MASTER SEL panel<br />

• CH SEL set to MIC with mic gain set to about -20dB.<br />

Control Room Monitor panel<br />

• MIX, INT, M1 and CUT will all be selected.<br />

• The monitor level knob will be set to Off.<br />

Solo System<br />

• CH SAFE, MON SAFE and LATCH all selected<br />

MON SEL panel<br />

• Set to DAW SND<br />

Routing<br />

• All of the Monitor paths will be sent to the L and R Main Mix busses for<br />

all channels (regardless of the actual console size).<br />

• There will be no Surround routing in place.<br />

On the Channel Strips<br />

• The Direct Output will be set to PRE.<br />

• (set the DAW control to be Pre for those mics you want to monitor).<br />

• DAW will be set to SND<br />

In this state, the console is ready to start recording from the Mic inputs<br />

with the Direct Outputs feeding the DAW (or tape machine).<br />

(In the Settings screen, the Power Up option will be set to be Default<br />

and the Timecode display will be set to DAW T/C. All other options on<br />
