Why are there 24 sub-master output jacks on an 8-submaster mixer? This is called “triple-bus-sing.” Triple busing is a way to rout your sub groups outputs to all 24 Sub-master\/Tape outputs when supplying signal to three 8-track recorders. The signals you send to the sub outputs will appear on 1-8, 9-16 and again on 17-24. You simply put the tracks you want to record in RECORD mode, and the other tracks (not in record mode) ignore the signal. The sub-master outputs provide more than enough signal strength to do this.
That way, you can feed a 24-track deck (8 tracks at a time) without having to constantly re-patch. Connect the Sub-master\/Tape Outputs to the corresponding inputs on your multi-track, using only Sub-masters 1 through 8 for one 8-track deck, tracks 9-16 for second deck and 17-24 for third deck. Pretty cool, huh? You just arm up to eight tracks at once.
