Analog Input Jacks

1
2
The analog input jacks allow you to bring analog audio into the VS-2000's 24-bit analog-
to-digital (A/D) converters using balanced XLR connectors and balanced or
unbalanced 1/4" connectors. We'll explain how to correctly set an analog input's level
in "Setting Analog Input Levels" on Page 134.
Each XLR jack is paired with a 1/4" jack. There are therefore eight input jack pairs:
Inputs 1-8. Inputs 1-8 are controlled by Input Channels 1-8, respectively (Page 52).
Don't use the same-numbered XLR and TRS input jack—each INPUT knob and
channel controls both jacks, so you won't have independent control of the individual
jacks' signals.

1—XLR Inputs 1-8
Each of the eight XLR input jacks accepts an input signal from a balanced XLR
connector.
The VS-2000 can provide phantom power for a condenser-type mic connected to an
XLR jack. See "To Turn an XLR Input Jack's Phantom Power On or Off" on Page 134.
2—TRS Inputs 1-8
Connect a 1/4" phone-type TRS balanced or unbalanced audio connector to any of the
eight TRS input jacks.
3—GUITAR/BASS (Hi-Z) ON Switch
Press the GUITAR/BASS (Hi-Z) ON switch to turn on the GUITAR/BASS (Hi-Z) input
jack, and to turn off TRS Input 8—when the switch is locked in its "in" position, the
GUITAR/BASS (Hi-Z) input jack is activated.
