Keyboard/drum machine/sound module/
CD player, etc. (analog connection)
Connect the analog audio output of these devices to the
LINE IN/GUITAR [9-10]
jacks or
INPUTS [11-14]
jacks.
If you use the
LINE IN/GUITAR [9-10]
jacks, set the
GUITAR-LINE IN
switch to
LINE IN
.
NOTE
If you use the
LINE IN/GUITAR [9-10]
jacks, you can
adjust the input gain levels continuously from –6dBv
to –52dBv. If you use the
INPUTS [11-14]
jacks, you
can switch the nominal level between –10dBv and
+4dBu.
Sound module/CD players, etc. (digital
connection)
Connect the digital audio output of these devices to the
DIGITAL IN
jack.
NOTE
The US-1641
DIGITAL OUT
jack outputs either S/PDIF
or AES/EBU signals (selectable in the US-1641 Control
Panel). On the other hand, you can input S/PDIF
signals to the
DIGITAL IN
jack.
Headphones
Connect a set of stereo headphones to the
PHONES
jack
(1/4” stereo phone jack).
Powered speakers/audio system
Connect powered monitoring speakers or audio system to
the
MONITOR OUTPUTS [L/R]
jacks.
MIDI connections
Connect your sound module, keyboard/synthesizer, drum
machine, or other MIDI device to the US-1641 as shown in
the illustration on page 17.
The US-1641 receives MIDI signal at the
MIDI IN
connec-
tor, then transmits it to the connected computer. Also, the
US-1641 receives MIDI signal from the computer, then
transmits it from the
MIDI OUT
connector. In this way,
you can use the
MIDI IN/MIDI OUT
connectors to trans-
mit and receive MTC (MIDI Time Code). This allows the
MTC-compatible MTR (Multi Track Recorder) of your
DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) computer application to
synchronize with your MIDI equipment.
