ANALOG INPUTS A and B connectors
These A/B balanced XLR connectors are for analog
balanced line inputs (1: GND, 2: HOT, 3: COLD). Set
which channels the signals input through these
connectors are recorded to using the unit settings.
j
DIGITAL I/O (ADAT) 1-8 connectors
These connectors are for the input (IN) and output
(OUT) of ADAT optical format digital audio. Sampling
frequencies of 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz are supported.
k
REMOTE cover
This cover is attached when the unit is new. Remove
the two screws from the cover to access and use the
REMOTE
connector.
l
RS-422 connector
This 9-pin D-sub connector is for RS-422 serial control.
Connect an external controller, for example, here.
NOTE
This cannot be used at the same time as the RS-232C connector. (See
“RS-422 page” on page 48.

RS-232C connector
This 9-pin D-sub connector is for RS-232C control.
Connect an external controller, for example, here.
NOTE
This cannot be used at the same time as the RS-422 connector (See
“RS-232C page” on page 48.)
z
PARALLEL connector
This 25-pin D-sub connector is for parallel control.
Connect an external controller, for example, here.
x
AC inlet
Connect the provided AC power cord set here.

ANALOG OUTPUTS L/A and R/B connectors
These A/B balanced XLR connectors are for analog
balanced line outputs (1: GND, 2: HOT, 3: COLD).
These output the stereo signal mixed in this unit or the
monitoring signal (the same sound output from the
PHONES
jack, including soloed tracks, etc.).
b
DIGITAL I/O (AES/EBU) 1-8 connector
This 25-pin D-sub connector is for digital audio input
and output in AES/EBU (AES3-2003/IEC60958-4)
format.
Transmission occurs at double speed when the
sampling frequency is 88.2 or 96 kHz and at quad
speed when 176.4 or 192 kHz.
The digital input section includes a sampling
rate converter that is compatible with sampling
frequencies between 32–216 kHz.
The pin assignments are as follows.
