Page 27: Setting The Input Level
Introductory Recording Tutorial Setting the Input Level Assuming that the 02R is powered ON and your music source is playing, the very ﬁrst thing you need to do is set up a basic control room monitor mix. When you recall Scene Memory 0 “0 Initial Data”, all the channel faders are set to the 0 dB mark.
Page 28 Introductory Recording Tutorial Setting the GAIN 1. Use the [METER] button to locate the METER 1/3 page. The MIC/LINE 1 signal is metered. METER 2. If the sound is distorted, the PEAK indicator is illuminated, or the level is going up to CLIP , press the 20 dB (pad) switch to attenuate 20dB the input signal for MIC/LINE 1.
Page 29 Introductory Recording Tutorial Back off the GAIN control a little until the PEAK indicator illuminates very occasionally. The GAIN control should be set with some care. If it is set too low, the signal-to-noise performance will suffer, and if it is set too high, signal clipping and distortion may occur.
Page 30 Introductory Recording Tutorial The peak level is indicated by an empty square box. Peak Hold is very useful for level checking before recording. You can leave a mix to play through unattended while Peak Hold watches out for signal peaks. If any levels reach CLIP, back off the relevant GAIN control or use the /ATT display function to attenuate the signal and run through the mix again.
Page 31: Applying Eq
Introductory Recording Tutorial Applying EQ The next step is to apply EQ to MIC/LINE 1. Each 02R channel features a four-band fully parametric EQ, with variable bandwidth (Q), frequency (F), and gain (G). The power of the 02R user interface means that there are two ways of adjusting the EQ for MIC/LINE 1.

Page 50 Secondary Recording Tutorial 4. To change the signal level, adjust the fader for MIC/LINE 1 until the desired value is obtained. You can use the rotary encoders for the tape returns or press the [FLIP] button. Then the tape return channels can be operated by the faders. The effect returns can only be adjusted with the rotary encoders.
Page 51: Creating A Monitor Mix
Secondary Recording Tutorial Creating a Monitor Mix The 02R has two different monitoring outputs—the control room outputs and the studio outputs—plus, of course, the PHONES output (which is a duplicate of the control room output). During a multitrack recording session, what you want to listen to in the control room is often very different from what the musicians need in the studio.
Page 52: Applying Effects
Secondary Recording Tutorial Applying Effects The 02R features two internal multi-effects stereo processors: Effect 1 and Effect 2. These are fed by AUX 7 and AUX 8, and the processed signals are returned via EFF 1 RTN and EFF 2 RTN, respectively. When you use the internal effects, the signal gets processed without ever leaving the digital domain.
Page 53 Secondary Recording Tutorial Sends to the effects are usually post fader. This means the signal level feed into the effects processor follows the “dry” channel level. 4. Adjust the fader for MIC/LINE 1 until the desired signal level is obtained. Adjusting the Effect Return The effect return channel is similar to one of the input channels except that it has no analog input, and therefore no gain or input pad need to be...
Page 54 Secondary Recording Tutorial By default (assuming you are still working with Scene Memory 0 “0 Initial Data”) the effect return channel is routed to the stereo bus. Note: Although you cannot route the effect return channel to the direct outputs, you can route it to the same bus that the input channel is routed to, allowing you to record the effect together with the input signal.
Page 55: Recalling And Editing Effects
Secondary Recording Tutorial Recalling and Editing Effects Once you have applied effects to MIC/LINE 1, you need to know how to recall effects programs from the effects library and to adjust their parameters in order to create your own effect programs. Recalling Effects Programs 1.

Page 60: Patching In A Dynamics Processor
Secondary Recording Tutorial Patching in a Dynamics Processor The 02R features comprehensive dynamics processors for all the channel inputs, tape returns, and stereo and bus outputs. These processors allow you to compress, expand, compress/expand (compand), gate, or duck the signals passing through the mixer. The dynamics processors are generally used to correct or control signal levels, giving you unparalleled sonic quality and ﬂexibility.
Page 61 Secondary Recording Tutorial Compressing the Stereo Output You can apply dynamics to the input channels, for example, the channel you have used throughout these tutorials—MIC/LINE 1. The selection of dynamics program would depend on the input material: a gate for a noisy guitar amp, a compressor for an unpredictable vocalist, and so on.
Page 62 Secondary Recording Tutorial 3. Use the CURSOR buttons to select the DYNAMICS OFF icon and press the [ENTER] button to turn the processor on. The icon is highlighted with the text changed to ON. Being able to easily turn the dynamics processor on and off allows you to perform quick A-B listening tests.

Page 177: Dynamics Processors
Dynamics Dynamics Processors Dynamics processors are generally used to correct or control signal levels. However, you can also use them creatively to shape the volume envelope of a sound. The 02R features comprehensive dynamics processors for all the input channels, tape returns, and the bus and stereo outputs. These processors allow you to compress, expand, compress-expand (compand), gate, or duck the signals passing through the mixer, giving you unparalleled sonic quality and ﬂexibility.
Page 178: Compressor
Dynamics Compressor Compression ratio = 2:1 A compressor provides a form of automatic level control. By attenuating high levels, thus effectively reducing the dynamic range, the compressor Threshold = -20dB makes it much easier to control signals and set appropriate fader levels. Knee = hard Reducing the dynamic range also means that recording levels can be set higher, therefore improving the signal-to-noise performance.
Page 179 Dynamics Knee sets the transition of the signal at the threshold. With a hard knee, the transition between uncompressed and compressed signal is immediate. With the softest knee, knee5, the transition starts before the signal reaches the threshold and gradually ends above the threshold. Release determines how soon the compressor returns to its normal gain once the trigger signal level drops below the threshold.
Page 180: Expander
Dynamics Expander Expansion ratio = 2:1 An expander is another form of automatic level control. By attenuating the Knee = hard signal below the threshold, the expander reduces low-level noise and Threshold = -10dB effectively increases the dynamic range of the recorded material. Expander (EXP) parameters: Parameter Value...
Page 181: Compander
Dynamics Compander A compander is a compressor-expander—a combination of signal Width compression and expansion. The compander attenuates the input signal above the threshold as well as the level below the width. For very dynamic Threshold material, this program allows you to retain the dynamic range without having to be concerned with excessive output signal levels and clipping.
Page 182: Gate And Ducking
Dynamics Gate and Ducking A gate, or noise gate is an audio switch used to mute signals below a set Threshold = -10dB threshold level. It can be used to suppress background noise and hiss from valve (tube) amps, effects pedals, and microphones. Range = -30dB Ducking is used to automatically reduce the levels of one signal when the level of a source signal exceeds a speciﬁed threshold.
Page 183 Dynamics For ducking, this controls how soon the signal is ducked once the duck has been triggered. With a fast attack time, the signal is ducked almost immediately. With a slow attack time, ducking fades the signal. Too fast an attack time may sound abrupt.

Page 237: What Is The Automix Function
Automix What is the Automix Function? One of the most demanding jobs of the recording engineer is taking all the raw material produced during a multitrack recording session and mixing it all together into an artistically satisfying master recording. The ability to setup portions of the mix and then have them playback automatically as you work on other portions is probably the most important feature of any digital recording studio.

Page 239: What Is Timecode
Automix What is Timecode? Timecode is a signal that contains a chronological record of the absolute time in a recording. It is used for synchronizing different recorders. It can be used for electronic editing. Timecode was initially invented for the motion picture business, as a method of synchronizing the pictures recorded in the frames of a camera to the sound recorded on tape recorder.
Page 240 Automix Connections If the connected device can directly output SMPTE timecode, use an audio cable to connect the output to the TIME CODE INPUT—SMPTE connector on the back of the 02R. If the connected device does not have a dedicated SMPTE output connector, record the timecode onto a spare track (in the case of a multitrack recorder) or a special track (in the case of a video recorder or ﬁlm post-production recorder) and connect the output from that track to...

Page 384: Glossary
Glossary Glossary A/D converter—The conversion of analog signals into digital signals. The analog signal is sampled every few milliseconds and its level is quantized into a digital word. The larger the digital word, the more accurate the representation of the analog value. See Quantization and Sampling frequency. The 02R uses 20-bit linear analog-to-digital converters for most of its analog inputs.
Page 385 Glossary Bit—A single unit of digital data. It can have a value of 1 or 0. Bulk Dump—A MIDI function that allow the transfer of system speciﬁc data, such as sample ﬁles or mixer settings, between MIDI capable devices. The data are transmitted as MIDI System Exclusive messages. Bus—A circuit that connects the input or tape and effect return signals with the output connectors.
Page 386 Glossary Dither—Dithering is a mathematical process where a random noise is added to the least signiﬁcant bit of a digital word. With very low level signals, the quantization error becomes correlated to the signal level. This creates a measurable amount of distortion. By adding dither, the correlation between the signal level and the quantization error is cancelled, allowing the digital system to encode amplitudes smaller than the least signiﬁcant bit.
Page 387 Glossary Expander—An expander is another form of automatic level control. By attenuating the signal below the threshold, the expander reduces low-level noise or expands the dynamic range of the recorded material. See Dynamics Processor F (frequency)—The center frequency of an EQ band. See EQ. Fader calibration—The motorized faders occasionally require re-calibration in order to maintain the highest performance possible.
Page 388 Glossary Modulation—Using a low frequency oscillator (LFO) to control a signal’s frequency (pitch) or amplitude (level). The internal effects programs use modulation for a number of their programs. See Internal Effects. Nyquist Sampling Theorem—This theorem deﬁnes the process of sampling audio with a digital system. Amongst other things, it states that the sampling frequency of a digital audio system must be at least twice that of the highest audio frequency, otherwise aliasing will occur.
Page 389 Glossary Routing—The process of assigning input or tape and effect returns to the output buses or the stereo bus. Sampling frequency—The rate at which measurements of an audio signal are taken during A/D and D/A conversion. Once in the digital domain, the data usually remains at the same sampling frequency.
