I've recently begun to use up more and more tracks with audio: vocals guitars etc, and tend to have drums via a MIDI sync'd drum machine, with bass and pads via sequenced synths.
I would normally just keep channels 7+8 or 9+10 as targets for a stereo mix of the external sounds, but I wondered if there is a way to record a mix with all 10 tracks used for audio but with some way to input the external drums/synths during the mix down (to 11/12).
I know I can have the synths plugged into any recorded track and in MTR mode with REC enabled, on playback I'll hear both the input and the track contents, but as soon as I hit the transport REC button I'll overwrite the track.
Any tips?
Ideally I'd like to record to 11/12 the following:-

Ideally I'd like to record to 11/12 the following:-
- Audio tracks 1-10
- Stereo inputs from drum m/c
- Stereo inputs from sound module.
