the
TAPE

TAPE MONITOR
To record to tape, CD recorder, DAT, minidisk or computer soundcard analogue input, connect the tape out to
the recorder line in. Press the input selector button on the front panel or remote control. This source will now be
routed to the M6PRE

the
TAPE MONITOR LED is lit
. Press again to return back to the original input being listened to (and
TAPE
MONITOR
LED is out again).
On some 3 head tape decks there is an additional tape/source switch which should be in the 'TAPE' position for
this to work. If in doubt, please consult tape deck operating manual.
Note – the M6PRE volume control has no effect on the TAPE OUT signal.
BALANCED 1/HT
To use the
BALANCED 1/HT
input as a standard input, connect balanced source outputs to the
BALANCED
1/HT
input XLR sockets (see page 7). Select the
BALANCED 1/HT
input by pressing the
BALANCED 1/HT
button so
BALANCED 1/HT
LED is lit. Selecting the
BALANCED 1/HT
input can also be achieved by pressing
the corresponding button on the remote handset (see page 8).
To use the
BALANCED 1/HT
input as a HT input, move the
BAL/HT
switch to the HT position. This input is now
unaffected by the volume control, allowing volume control on an external Home Theatre processor to be used
directly. Connect Home theatre or other source outputs to the
AUX
input XLR sockets (see page 7). Select
BALANCED 1/HT
input by pressing the
BALANCED 1/HT
button so
BALANCED 1/HT
LED is lit.
IMPORTANT: Take great care when using the input in HT mode. Ensure that the volume control is turned right
down on the HT processor when first setting up. The HT mode is designed for sources which require their own
volume control to be used. Connecting sources in HT mode with no volume control could result in damage to
hearing and/or speakers due to uncontrolled loud sounds.

BALANCED 2
input, connect balanced source outputs to the
BALANCED 2
input XLR sockets (see
page 7). Select the

LED is lit.
Selecting the

input can also be achieved by pressing the corresponding button on the remote
handset (see page 8).
