Our first attempt at making a two track recording on the Qu 32 to a thumb drive was not very successful. The record level was being controlled by the master fader. The solution was to change the output patch to the Qu Drive from the Master L/R to a Matrix 1/2.
This was accomplished by selecting the “setup” button to the right of the touch screen,
Selecting the “Output Patch” tab, and then the “USB Audio” tab just below the Output “Patch tab”
In the lower left-hand corner click on channel 17 and use the touch screen rotary knob to scroll through and choose “MTX 1 L”
Tuen click on channel 18 and use the touch screen rotary knob to scroll through and choose “MTX 2R”…. hit “APPLY”
A tip…. after assigning a channel, you can hit the “Fn” key (lower left below the touch screen) and the next channel will automatically advance to the next available number. NICE!
Choose the LR mix button in the master section just above the master fader with the blue light, then hit the “Routing” button to the right of the touch screen,
Select the “Matrix Sends” tab, make sure Mix LR is displayed (upper left) to show we are sending the LR to this matrix 1-2.
Set the first button to “Pre” the next button “On”
Center the pan and set the level to 0 db.
0 db is a good place to start to get decent healthy level.
The Matrix (MTX 1-2) master fader is on the second “Layer” It is the second to last fader from the far right and it will be your recording level master.
To start recording go to “Home” choose the “Stereo” tab and you will see the small meters just to the left of the transport controls for record, playback and stop.
Our last recorded effort was much better and resulted in .WAV files that were useable.
This is how it was explained to me, I hope it helps.
