Phonograph Turntables; Do Not Connect Any Of The Following To Any Input Of The Multimix 12R - Alesis MULTIMIX 12R Reference Manual

Phonograph turntables

If you're using a record turntable, you may not plug it directly into the
line inputs of the Multimix 12R (well, you can, but it will sound very
thin and noisy). Obtain a phono preamp from your dealer or an
electronics specialty store.
1. Plug the outputs of the phonograph pickup into the RIAA-
equalized phono preamp.
2. Plug the outputs of the preamp into the LINE IN 9-10 or 11-12
inputs of the Multimix 12R.
Do not connect any of the following to any
input of the Multimix 12R!
• The speaker output of any power amplifier.
• Any source that is too loud for the input (no more than 3 volts RMS
into a [MIC] jack or 13 volts RMS into a [LINE IN] jack).
• Any unshielded cable.
