MIC Input 5. GND Terminal This is a Neutrik "combo" input connector that accepts either a balanced male XLR connector or a 1/4" balanced or unbalanced connector. Use an XLR connector for low-impedance microphones and a 1/4" connector for high-impedance microphones. The MIC Input signal is routed through the MIC Input Section, MIC EQ, and then to the Main Mix bus. These terminals are provided to connect a ground wire from your turntable(s) to the d.2. Most turntables provide a ground wire to connect to the preamp for the purpose of eliminating "hum" in the audio signal. Simply turn the ground terminal on the d.2 counter-clockwise to loosen it, wrap the end of the ground wire clockwise around the terminal, and hand-tighten the ground terminal for a secure ground connection. 2. CD Inputs These RCA jacks accept a stereo line-level signal from a CD player or other line-level playback device (such as an MP3 player or DVD audio). 3. LINE/PHONO Inputs 6. Stereo FX SEND These 1/4" TRS jacks provide a balanced line-level output signal from the stereo FX Send bus. Use these to connect to the inputs of an external effects processor. You can also use an unbalanced 1/4" TS cable to make this connection. These RCA jacks accept a stereo phono-level signal from a turntable (when the LINE/PHONO [4] switch is pushed in), or from a line-level playback device such as a CD player or MP3 player (when the LINE/PHONO switch is out). Check that your turntable has a phonolevel output and a Moving Magnet cartridge. 4. LINE/PHONO Switch If you connect a turntable with phono-level outputs to the LINE/PHONO inputs [3], push this switch in to select the phono-level input stage, which includes an RIAA preamp for proper re-equalization of the incoming phono signal. If you are connecting a line-level playback device like a CD or MP3 player, leave this switch out to select the line-level preamp. Do not press it in if you have a line-level signal connected. 7. Stereo FX RETURN These 1/4" TRS jacks accept a balanced line-level signal from an external effects processor. They will also accept an unbalanced 1/4" TS connector. If you are using a stereo effects processor, connect its left and right outputs to the corresponding left and right FX RETURN jacks. If it is a mono effects processor, connect its output signal to the left FX RETURN jack, and it will appear on both the left and right Main Mix bus. 8. BOOTH Outputs These 1/4" TRS jacks provide a balanced line-level signal from the Main Mix bus, prior to the rotary MAIN LEVEL control [32]. Use these to connect to a pair of powered monitor speakers (or to the inputs of an amplifier powering the monitor speakers in the booth). 10 d.2 DJ Mixer
