Rear Panel
Everything that goes in, out, and through the
DA7 happens
on the Rear Panel, with the exception of the headphone
connector. The
DA7 provides multiple ways for doing many
things, so let your creativity be your guide.
The rear of the
DA7 is configured in four rows. The top row
contains analog INPUTS 1-16 (inputs 1-8 are balanced XLR
connectors and inputs 9-16 are balanced TRS (tip-ring-
sleeve) phone plug connectors).
Row 2 contains analog INS 1-16 (inserts) with (TRS) phone
plug connectors. Row 3 contains outputs for MASTER OUT,
REC OUT analog, MONITORS A&B, and AUX returns and
sends 1 through 6. The bottom row contains the METER
BRIDGE connection, MIDI IN/OUT, SERIAL PORT (for
direct connection to a PC or a Macintosh computer), WORD
CLOCK IN/OUT, DIGITAL IN/OUT, and a REMOTE SW
connector.
