applied, or damage to the unit could result. (See markings on unit.)

DIIFF:: These are the stereo digital inputs and outputs provided to connect to other digital equipment,
such as a computer or DAT deck. The input syncs to an incoming clock (up to 48 kHz) if one is present,
defaulting to 44.1 kHz if one is not. Two lights indicate if it has locked onto an input clock or if there is
an error in the data. The digital input is only connected to the analog processes if the kosmos Pro input
selector switch is in the S/PDIF mode, but it will always be used (if it has a clock) as a sync to set the
internal sampling frequency. The S/PDIF output is always live and is the same as the main left and right
outputs. Digital full-scale (zero) corresponds approximately to the analog clipping point (+22 dBu). At
typical operation levels this leaves 18 dB of headroom.

utt:: This is a 1/4" TRS electronically-balanced output, that can be used either in
balanced mode (with a 1/4" TRS jack) or unbalanced (standard 1/4" jack). This output supplies the
signal for the sub-woofer amplifier (line level).

uttss:: The left/mono and right outputs are electronically balanced, with pin 2
(and tip) positive. The XLR and 1/4" TRS phone jacks are directly wired in parallel. Balanced and
unbalanced jacks should not be mixed on the same channel outputs since this would cause both to
become unbalanced. The left/mono output has the mono output signal when in the mono mode.

uttss:: The left and right input jacks are balanced with pin 2 (and tip) positive. The XLR and 1/4" TRS
jacks are directly wired in parallel. If a mono signal is used, apply it to the left/mono jack (XLR or 1/4")
and depress the MONO switch.

ecctt:: Either the analog (XLR and 1/4”) inputs or the S/PDIF digital input can be selected.
Selecting one disconnects the other. This affects both the left and right inputs. The mono switch is
disabled when the unit is set for S/PDIF inputs.

o:: If only one input of the kosmos Pro is used, this switch should be pressed. It insures proper
internal levels to the processes which rely on having both left and right signals. This switch does not
affect the S/PDIF units.
