• To connect this console to the processor, use the VM link cable (AES/EBU
digital audio cable) supplied with the processor.
• R-BUS is the same standard as RMDB2 or RMDBII. Even if "RMDB2" or
"RMDBII" is indicated on your DIF-AT, it can be used without any
problems.
• When connecting a digital multitrack tape recorder like an ADAT or
TASCAM, install the VM-24E beforehand. For details, refer to the operation
manual of the processor (VM-7200/7100).
• When connecting the processor in cascade, install the VM-24C beforehand.
For details, refer to the operation manual for the processor (VM-7200/7100).
• Howling could be produced depending on the location of microphones
relative to speakers. This can be remedied by:
1. Changing the orientation of the microphone(s).
2. Relocating microphone(s) at a greater distance from speakers.
3. Lowering volume levels.
