If you don’t have a spare stereo aux, go to setup > config > mixer config and create another one. You may need to then go to setup > control > strip assign to put this new mix somewhere on the surface. It’ll be under the mix tab on the left, drag it down to somewhere on the surface, then select it and name it something like “recrd”.
Once you have this, press its mix button to see the contribution levels and assignment status of each channel to this mix. You’ll want to make sure that all channels you want to record are set “on” and post fade. There is no indication for post-fade, so you just want to make sure that it doesn’t say “pre” (unless you want a channels recording level to be totally independent from its level in the main mix, room mics maybe). Set all the faders (when you have a mix button pressed these become the equivalent of the aux send knobs on an analog console) to 0.
This levels to this mix are a combination of your fader positions in your main LR mix and the send levels from the channels to the record mix, so you can make whatever offsets you require here. If you’re using any subgroups be aware that the effect of these will not be reflected in the recording, as they happen later in the signal flow than where you’re taking your signal from. DCAs will be reflected, as these effectively modify the fader levels.
