Monitoring and Recording
from Alternate Sources
Digi 002 and Digi 002 Rack provide a pair of ad-
ditional inputs for monitoring and recording
from an external sound source such as a CD
player or tape deck. This alternate input is
equipped with standard RCA connectors and is
designed for input signals with a nominal oper-
ating level of –10 dBV.
To monitor an alternate sound source through the
Digi 002 or Digi 002 Rack Monitor Outputs:
1
Connect the outputs of the external device to
the left and right Alternate Source Inputs on the
back panel of Digi 002 or Digi 002 Rack.
2
Press the “Alt Src to Mon” switch (located on
the top panel of Digi 002, and on the front
panel of Digi 002 Rack) to route the signal to the
Monitor Output.
3
Adjust Monitor Output or Headphone Output
levels to audition the input.
If you plan to use the external device as an
Insert in Pro Tools, connect it to inputs and
outputs of the same number (for example,
Input 5 and Output 5) of Digi 002 or
Digi 002 Rack.
You can use the I/O Setup dialog (Setups >
I/O Setup) to label the inputs and outputs
you are using in Pro Tools LE and identify
them as inserts or sends when working in a
session. Refer to the Pro Tools Reference
Guide for details.
Alternate Source Input connectors (back panel)
To monitor an external device through the
Alternate Source Inputs, Digi 002 or
Digi 002 Rack must be powered on.
