Connecting the sound sources
The [INPUT] jacks to which you connect the sound sources differ depending on the step.
Connect the sources correctly following the instructions in each step.
You can connect up to six sound sources to the XR-7. Take special note that you can adjust
the level using the TRIM knobs for the sound sources connected to the [INPUT] jacks 5 and
6, which allows you to connect either mic level or line level instruments.
Using the [TRIM] knobs:
You can adjust the level of the signal input to the
[INPUT] jacks 5 and 6 according to the output
level of the connected sound sources. We
recommend you connect the microphone to the
[INPUT] jack 5 ore andadjustthe level using the
TRIM knobs as lollows;
When a low-level source such as a micro¬
phone is connected:
Rotate the knob clockwise (toward "-60").
When a line-level source such as a synthe¬
sizer is connected:
Rotate the knob counter-clockwise (toward
Using the [INPUT SEL] switches
Set the [INPUTSEL] switches as follows according to the signal routed to the [INPUT] faders.
The signal adjusted by the [INPUT] fader goes from the [INPUT] fader through [EQ] and
[PAN], to the stereo bus. (However, in direct recording, the signal is routed directly to the
recording section from the [EQ] section, and it is not sent to the stereo bus.)
