Monitor Source buttons.
BALANCED AND UNBALANCED CONNECTIONS
The outputs on Volt are balanced when connected with TRS
•
connectors to balanced equipment.
Use TRS (balanced) audio cables for the best results with a
•
balanced stereo speaker system. Balanced equipment uses three
conductor wiring to reduce interference and electrical noise, and
to provide better audio quality over longer cable runs. TS
connections may be suitable for shorter output cables, where
electrical interference noise may not be an issue.
Note: The monitor outputs are not powered. You will need to connect the
cables to either powered speakers or an amp with speakers.
(18) Line Outputs
Use the line outputs for monitoring unattenuated audio directly from the
software. Audio can be assigned to these outputs in your software. These
are ¼" balanced outputs. See
information.
Line Outputs 1-2 typically carry the main outputs from your
•
software.
Line Outputs 3-4 must be specifically assigned as outputs from
•
your software. These can be used for various monitoring
purposes.
(19) MIDI I/O
You can connect a MIDI device to Volt with standard 5-pin MIDI DIN
cables. Connect the MIDI OUT of your device to the MIDI IN on Volt, and
the MIDI IN of the device to the MIDI OUT on Volt.
You may not need to make both connections. For example, a MIDI
controller might only be connected to the MIDI IN on Volt, and a MIDI
sound module might only be connected to the MIDI OUT from Volt.
