Connecting audio

The DLC-C003 provides a stereo audio input for sound to light functions.
The stereo channels are combined internally to give a mono signal.
The DLC-C003 2048 has a stereo audio input socket with a gain control
next to it.
The DLC-C003 2048 has two mono jacks and the gain control is on the
front panel with the LCD contrast/brightness controls.
There is an internal link on the PCB to set the overall sensitivity of the
audio inputs to mic or line level. By default the audio input is set to
maximum sensitivity. See page 140 for details.
1.1.5
Qwerty: for connecting a standard PC keyboard. This is used for
entering legends to name memories, chases and palettes. If using a
keyboard you should connect it before you turn the power on.
VDU: for connecting a VGA display. Any standard VGA display will be
OK, the console uses a 640x480 text mode. You do not have to connect
the VDU screen as most information is shown on the console's on-board
display, but some extra displays are available on the VDU screen which
are useful when programming or operating a complex show.
Serial: is for the Stage Remote or the graphics tablet.
DMX In: allows you to capture DMX from an external system into
memories on the DLC-C003 using the Include function.
USB: for future use in the software.
Visualiser: (if fitted) allows direct connection to a PC running
Visualiser; alternatively a MIDI adaptor cable can be used to connect
Visualiser to the MIDI ports.
Reset button: allows you to restart the DLC-C003 if something funny
happens to it. The DLC-C003 will come back to the same place it was in
when you pressed Reset, but all playbacks will be turned off. The
memory is not affected.
LCD contrast and brightness controls are on the front of the console
next to the key switch. If you can't see anything on the display, first set
the contrast control to a central position, then adjust it for best display.
The brightness control sets the intensity of the display's backlight.
