AUX Output configuration
This auxiliary stereo output - available on a TA-3 connector [AUXOut] - is directly derived from the DSP of the
Recorder; thus it monitors the tracks of the recorder. This output is used to feed a mix to camera, an external
recorder, a video suite or any other destination where a sub-mix might be required. It is configured by two
separate menus
- [AUX] menu:
is used to route and assign the tracks to the output
- [AUX SETUP]:
is used to configure the Auxiliary output as analogue or digital output, to adjust the
output level from 0dBFS to -40dBFS or to turn it Off to save on batteries
The routing and assignment is configured on a similar way as for the BOOM output, except that the [AUXOut]
does not offer the Solo Monitoring
Primary switches select the
monitoring mode per pair:
OFF, MONO, STEREO, REV-
ST , MS or indicates USER
Odd track of the pair
Secondary switches route each
track individually:
OFF – L – R – C
Even track of the pair

The attenuation of the output signal is computed in the DSP, in the digital domain, and is applied to the sum of
the Left and Right channels which results of the routing configuration in the [AUX OUTPUT] menu.
Logically, the maximum level allowed in the routing is 0dBFS, which corresponds to an analogue level of
14dBu. The analogue output level is -4dBu for a reference set at -18dBFS, respectively -6dBu for a reference
of -20dBFS and +5dBu for a reference at -9dBFS.
WARNING:
levels on the Left and Right outputs depend on the summation in the routing matrix; thus,
output levels do not correspond to the levels displayed by the peak-meters.
