Does this record to discrete files for each channel on the sd card for mixdown externally, or does one have to mixdown to stereo to save files?

The recorder saves all six inputs and the stereo mix. The six inputs can be specified in the menu to record as six mono tracks or three stereo pairs. To save memory space, you can select which tracks are active so as not to waste space saving empty tracks. Only active channels/tracks are saved and sent to the stereo mix pair if it is activated. With all tracks active, you have four stereo wav files or one stereo and six mono.

Discrete files. A few different formats A 6 channel wav or a series of stereo wavs or mp3s But all tracks are recorded separately IN ADDITION to stereo mixdown

Simple Answer-NO Hope this helps! It is a very nice recorder. I have lots of music on my via micro-card.

Yes it does on at least 1 channel. Depends on your machine, some have 2 channels to record audio.

Hi LFTV,When I recorded and played, it played in stereo.You can take a look at the technical spec and it indeed recorded stereo as it claims.Take a look at the link and read the "Features" section.Thank you.

Perhaps I am too simplistic, but I think the obvious answer is that since you can only record to a CD, the output is Digital. You cannot record to the tape or phonograph portions of the unit.

It has two channels in and two channels out along with a stereo output. Stereo is always two channels. Whether you directly record to two separate tracks or one stereo track (to break into mono later) is up to you and your recording software. Of course you will have bleed on both tracks from both mics.

I think that if you do have the red/white analog (rca) inputs to record to on the soundcard -- use this. The analog sampling rate is higher than the SPDIF. Your computer software will then take that and compress it into the MP3 format. It is always better to go from higher sampling rate to the compressed format -- better clarity through the abridged audio frequency spectrum.

You plug it straight into the camera and it will give you sound and video in the same file. If you record externally you will get two files

The problem is that I'd like to use it when recording video, not just for voice notes. It's been very frustrating - sometimes it records in stereo, but most of the time in mono. I haven't been able to figure out what makes the difference.

It can be done, but not directly. The H4N will allow you to record four channels at once, which are saved as two stereo files. If you have audio software, you can then divide those stereo files into individual mono files. It's a little cumbersome, but it can be done.

Only by the size of the builtin storage. I have uploaded whole tracks but than it defeats the true purpose and power of the SPD-SX as naturally it reduces overall storage space to be able to take advantage of the 200+ samples that can be stored. Using a mixer I prefer to connect via a third medium such as iPhone, iPad.or laptop. The SPD also has the option to connect directly if you do not have a mixer. I use GarageBand which is also a very powerful mixing tool that when combined with the SPD works wonders or iTunes if practicing using backing tracks. I Hope this helps.

I capture both channels from the ART USB Dual pre into my DAW, which is Sony Sound Forge Audio Studio. I then have the option of mixing the channels to any degree that I want in the software, and then saving the final mix as a stereo sound or 2-channel mono.Of course, you also have the option of using just one mic. You will get a single channel output, which you can duplicate into your second channel (in your DAW software) and save the final mix as 2-channel mono.Hope this helps.

I record using the mic jack using a stereo plug coming from a reel-to-reel tape deck. I get a usable file but I suspect my original recordings are monaural.

If your asking about the built-in USB (only computer connect I'm aware of) it carries the 2-channel main mix output, not individual channels. Hope this helped.

I saw that as well. Have no idea if it will record to the SD card, but pretty sure you can play the SD card depending on how your hookups are wired. But the only way to find out some of these things is to give it a try. I wonder if you can put an SD card in the slot and tell the recorder to record the picture shown from the card direct to the hard disc. I might try that to see if that works. Probably would have to have all kinds of inputs and outputs pre-arranged.

This is for two channel stereo output only, which is how most music is recorded. You will have to determine if your sound unit has a stereo output option.

The device records a single stereo track at a time. If you want to record different tracks separately, you could conceivably do that and synchronize the tracks using software, but you would need something more capable in that regard (a digital audio workstation) than the included Wavelab LE (an audio editor).
