The analog input/output reference level adjustment
The analog input/output reference level during recording or
playback is factory set to +4 dBs within a range of –20 dB to
the full bit level for both input and output.
To lower the reference level, use a screwdriver to adjust the
ANALOG(BALANCE) IN/OUT LEVEL controls on the rear
panel for both CH-1 (L) and CH-2 (R). You can adjust the
reference level in a range of +4 dBs to –12 dBs. Make sure to
set the REC LEVEL CH-1(L)/2(R) controls on the front panel
to the center point before making this adjustment.
For connections through the ANALOG(UNBALANCE) IN/
OUT connectors
Use phono-plug audio connecting cords.

Use the DIGITAL IN/OUT switch on the rear panel to
select the input/output connectors for digital signals.
Set the switch to AES/EBU to select the DIGITAL
AES/EBU IN/OUT connectors; set it to COAXIAL to
select the DIGITAL COAXIAL IN/OUT connectors.
For connections through the DIGITAL AES/EBU IN/OUT
