Connecting to Speakers or
Headphones
Since the DTX900 has no built-in speakers, you’ll need an
external audio system or a set of stereo headphones to
properly monitor it.
■
OUTPUT L/MONO, R jacks (standard
mono phone)
These jacks allow you to connect the DTX900 to an exter-
nal amplifier/speaker system and produce full, amplified
sound.
• Use the DTX900’s OUTPUT L/MONO jack when
connecting to a device with a mono input.
■
PHONES jack (standard stereo phone
jack)
The overall headphone level is adjusted by the PHONES
slider.
Connecting to External Audio
Equipment
When recording your performance on a DTX900 Drum Kit
or sending its sounds to a mixer, connect your equipment as
follows:
The OUTPUT (L/MONO and R) and INDIVIDUAL OUT-
PUT (1 to 6) jacks produce line level audio signals regard-
less of whether headphones are connected or not. These
jacks are mono phone type. To make audio connections via
these jacks, use cables with a mono phone plug for the
DTX900 and an appropriate plug for the other device.
Use both OUTPUT jacks (L/MONO and R) for stereo out-
put. If the other device has a mono input, use the L/MONO
jack only.
The DIGITAL OUTPUT connector can be connected to a
coaxial digital input (S/P DIF) on an external audio device.
This connector digitally outputs stereo audio signals identi-
cal to those from the OUTPUT L/MONO and R jacks.
External audio signals input to AUX IN/SAMPLING IN
jack can be monitored together with the DTX900 sounds
via headphones connected to the PHONES jack, and can be
recorded to create additional User Voices. If necessary, you
can use the [GAIN] knob on the rear panel to adjust the
gain of the input signal.
• Whenever making connections, make sure that the plug on the cable
being used corresponds to the type of jack on the device.
• Do not use the DTX900 at a high volume level for a long period of time,
or your hearing may be damaged. Doing so may cause hearing loss.

NOTICE
CAUTION
NOTE
• Connect a set of headphones to the PHONES jack for monitoring the ste-
reo output (identical to that of the OUTPUT jacks). The sounds output from
the INDIVIDUAL OUTPUT jacks cannot be heard from the headphones
connected to the PHONES jack.
• Depending on the connected equipment, you may need to change the
parameter settings in the Utility mode. For details, see page 128.
