Video In Jacks
The Zpre2 has input jacks to accommodate up to four composite video sources. The video
inputs correspond to the same numbered audio input and are switched at the same time.
Audio Out Jacks
Main - Variable Out
jacks connect to your power amplifier. Their output level is controlled by
the Zpre2 volume control.
Fixed – Rec Out
jacks feed a recorder or system controller for which a fixed output level is prefer-
able. The signal at the Fixed - Rec output jacks does not vary as the volume control is adjusted.
Video Output Jacks
The
Video Out
jack feeds your TV or video monitor.
The
Rec Out
jack feeds your video recorder. In fact, these jacks carry the same video signal and
you may certainly use the Rec Out jack to connect a second video display.
