7. In the ASSIGNMENT section, verify that when
L–R is selected (green light on) the ASSIGN
button in Channel One lights up green. This is
basic bus assignment procedure. Anything you
want to come out the MASTER L–R bus must
light up on the assign button of each desired
channel. In similar fashion, any channel that
needs to be assigned to Bus 1 must have the
channel assign button lit when Bus 1 is selected
in the ASSIGNMENT section.

8. Be sure the SPEAKER button is lit that
corresponds to your monitor system
connection—that the yellow light shows on
NEAR FIELD or MAIN.
9. Turn the SPEAKER LEVEL V-pot up to about
11:00.
10. Turn the MASTER L/R fader up to unity.
11. Slowly raise the level of the Channel One fader
until you hear sound.
Signal Routing Concept
The Digital 8•Bus, with its multilayer technology,
literally performs the work of at least four consoles.
To help organize the various connections, visualize
each bank as a new console. The “V” or “Multi-V”
diagrams that follow provide a simple and accurate
mental image of the signal flow and/or processing
while you put the Digital 8•Bus through its paces.
Figure 1-2 demonstrates a simple connection
scheme utilizing a microphone that’s routed though
the D8B to the monitor system.
Figure 1-3 demonstrates a tracking setup. Notice
how the graphic representation of two separate fader
banks supports the mental image of the D8B concept:
sound source into the MIC/LINE bank, then routed
to the multitrack, then back into the TAPE IN bank.
Figure 1-4 adds a mixdown recorder. The beauty
of this concept lies in its flexibility. Start at the
beginning, middle, or end of the signal path—it
doesn’t matter. When the routing concept is
understood, the process is simple.
