This example shows connections with an SS-R1 unit.
Connecting headphones
Connect your stereo headphones to the
PHONES
jack.
Use the
PHONES
knob located above the
PHONES
jack to
adjust the volume.
Connecting a PS/2 keyboard
You can use a keyboard to enter file (track) names and
folder names, and also use it to control the SS-R1/SS-R05
(see “Operation using a computer keyboard” on page 60).
Connecting audio devices (inputs)
Connect an external audio source (e.g., CD player, mixer)
to the recorder’s
ANALOG INPUTS (BALANCED, SS-R1
only)
jacks,
ANALOG INPUTS (UNBALANCED)
jacks, or
DIGITAL IN
jack. To select the input source, use the REC
menu item INPUT SELECT. To adjust the input volume,
use the REC menu item INPUT VOLUME.
Connecting audio devices (outputs
)
Connect an external monitor system or mixer to the
recorder’s
ANALOG OUTPUTS (BALANCED, SS-R1 only)
jacks,
ANALOG OUTPUTS (UNBALANCED)
jacks, or
DIGITAL OUT
jack.
Computer (SS-R1 only)
If you connect the SS-R1’s RS-232C connector to your
computer’s RS-232C connector, you’ll be able to control
the SS-R1 from your computer via a serial connection.
After making connections, you’ll need to make the correct
settings on your computer (see “Using the RS-232C
connector” on page 63).
Control via a parallel connection (SS-R1 only)
If you want to control the SS-R1 via a parallel connection
from an external controller such as the RC-SS20 (optional),
use the
PARALLEL
connector (25-pin D-sub connector).
For details on the pin configuration of the
PARALLEL
connector, refer to “Control connections” (page 8).
NOTE
The illustration above shows examples of connections
with an SS-R1. SS-R05 units do not have balanced XLR
input and output jacks, or RS-232C and parallel control
connectors.
