Once a project is mixed, "mixing down" is the process of combining the channels into a single (usually stereo) source, ready to be listened to.

The MRS8 has 2 options.

1. The traditional way is to output directly to a recording device via the Master outputs.
2. More commonly in the digital age the channels can be bounced to the dedicated Master Tracks to then be transfered to a PC for conversion to another format.
