Analogue Inputs On Ews88 Mt; General - TerraTec EWS88 MT Manual

Analogue inputs on EWS88 MT.

The line input-sensitivity on the 88AX may be controlled individually.
You can switch between –10 dBV and +4 dBu and adjust the gain
controls in order to make the most of the 24-bit converters.

General.

The AudioSystem EWS88 MT is equipped with 8 high-quality inputs (labeled IN on the break-
out box), which can be accessed individually. The connectors are of the Cinch(RCA)-type and
are always displayed as pairs in the ControlPanel (1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8). Naturally, you can also
access the channels individually.
The input sensitivity may be switched in the ControlPanel between –10dBV and +4dBu in
"Routing / Analog Input Levels". –10 dBV is very common in home-studios (the signal-levels
are comparatively low, which is compensated for with the higher input sensitivity). +4 dBu is
generally a professional setting (Instruments are powerful enough, hence the input sensitivity
is acceptable). If you find that one of your instruments does not deliver a high enough level,
you can increase the sensitivity in 0.5dB increments in the ControlPanel.
Safety-warning: Never plug analogue instruments into the jacks if
the power is on! This will protect you from electric shocks, as well as
your speakers and your hearing from sudden signal peaks. When
plugging in digital instruments, you should at least turn down the
volume.
You can find more information on controlling inputs in the chapter "Software." from page 47.
