"BRIAN MONTGOMERY: Okay. So, pretty much got the levels set for the mixdown, now we're going to do is we're going to dump it down to a CD-R here so what we'll need is I got these RCA cables here that will be runnin' out of our line-out so I'll just plug those guys in there and these are runnin' into the input on the CD-R. It's just--always remember that this an analog signal comin' in so always be sure and take a look at whatever it is you're dumpin' down to if it's just a, to a regular cassette tape you don't really have to worry about it. But this machine in particular has an input select so I've got it actually set for analog there. Everything should be in the tape, everything should be in the safe mode, the master fader should be up, I've got the monitor up a little bit just so we can hear it and make sure everything is playing correctly, and from there it's a matter of press and play and hit record on the machine here."
