Recording an external device (EXT IN)

Use a stereo miniplug cable to connect to the
output of an external audio device.
Other audio equipment or
external sound source
CAUTION
• Reduce the output level of the external audio device if the
input sound is distorted even when reducing the input
gain level on the unit.
• When an external audio device with a fixed output line
level is connected, it would be impossible to control the
gain level appropriately because of excessively large
input signals. In such cases, use the headphone jack or
other level-controllable output for connection to the unit.
