17. TAPE INPUT

These stereo unbalanced RCA inputs are designed
to work with semi-pro as well as pro player/recorders.
They may also be connected to any standard source with
player, iPod, and so on.
Connect the source's line-level outputs here using
good quality hi-fi (RCA) cables.
These may be used with a tape or CD player to feed
music to a PA system between sets when the break
switch [34] is engaged. The level coming into the mixer
example, press the break switch to mute all channels at
once, then play the tape or CD player and bring up its
level slowly.
18. TAPE OUTPUT
These stereo unbalanced RCA outputs allow you to
record the main stereo mix onto a tape deck, hard disk
recorder, automatic CD burner, computer, etc.
This allows you to make a recording for posterity/
archive/legal purposes whenever the band gets back
together again.
The tape output is the stereo main mix, not affected
