Yeah he realized that after talking to them and is going with an external pre-amp. I am still curious is the fader and l/r would be an alternative strategy
The fader is post recording affecting the output of the recording, so I do not see how that would work.
I looked at the flow diagram and its going to be more awkward than I thought.
I stream from the F8 by changing the output routing so its only sending the channels I want to stream. I was thinking that when you record the L/R channel you could do the same thing but you can't. All armed tracks go into the L/R mix.
I've never cared about the L/R mix, so I've never thought about this before, but if you turn on recording of L/R and then turn the fader to 0 db for all tracks except five and six does the L/R mix recording only have whats coming through on five and six?
