    788T/788T-SSD User Guide and Technical Information Analog Inputs Analog inputs 1-4 on XLR connectors and analog inputs 5-8 on TA3 connectors, are the primary con- nections into the recorder. These inputs accept balanced or unbalanced mic- or line-level inputs. Gain is controlled by the front panel Input Gain Pots.

  • Page 39: Digital Inputs

    To use a digital input, the Input Type switch located in an input’s Input Settings Window must be set to Digital. Although a digital input signal contains a pair of inputs, the 788T is able to select just one of the pair as an input, so for example, it is possible to select line or mic for Input 1 and digital for Input 2.
