5) FOOT SW jack
This is an unbalanced type phone jack. An unlatch type foot switch (Fostex Model 8051) can be plugged in
here. Operations using the foot switch are selectable in the [Setup mode]. Refer to [Setup mode] on page
27 for details.
6) DC IN connector
Plug-in the tip of the power cord of the exclusive AC adaptor (AD-9B) here and plug the adaptor into a
household AC wall outlet. Since the VM08 does not have a power switch, ON/OFF of power is done by
plugging and unplugging the AC adaptor from the AC wall outlet. If you don't plan on using the VM08 for
some length of time, the AC adaptor must be unplugged from the AC wall outlet.
7) S/P DIF OUT connector
The same signals output from ST OUT L, R are output here as digital (S/P DIF) signals.
Signals mixed in an external digital master recorder connected here can be recorded in digital as shown in
the schematic. If external digital equipment to be connected is provided with only COAXIAL (RCA pin jack)
type IN/OUT connectors, use the optional Fostex COP-1/96k optical-coaxial converting adaptor sold sepa-
rately.

reo]. The L signal of the stereo input signal will
be applied to channel 5 (or 7) and the R signal to

nection and the INPUT 5/6 input mode or IN-
PUT 7/8 input mode in the "setup mode" is set
to [In 5 > Mono] (or [In 7 > Mono]).
