If you  are recording Audio and use the mixer 


Hi Gordon,
 
    I was using three V/F sine wave converters per  channel and inputting 
this into the digitial recorder as a sum. The three  channels had very different 
centre frequencies and did not overlap.
    Then I took the recorder output, passed it through  three bandpass 
filters and into three PLL detectors, which gave voltage  outputs.
    This was straight FM type recording, no computer  involved at that stage, 
just a box of chips. I was actually recording instrument  signals in a 
glider, so it had to be small and light - airspeed, lift and  sink, altitude and a 
couple of other variables. I started out with a stereo  tape recorder and 
graduated to digital stereo. 
 
    Regards,
 
    Chris Chapman

Hi Gordon,
