TAPE INPUT
These RCA jacks are designed to work with
semipro as well as pro recorders. To compen-
sate for typically low levels, signals coming in
here will be automatically boosted by 6dB.
Connect your tape recorder’s outputs here,
using standard hi-fi (RCA) cables.
To learn how
signals are routed from these inputs, see
