    C - PHONES output – Connect headphones here. D - Outputs (1 - 4) – Use these balanced line-level TRS ¼" jacks to connect your T4 to monitors and external devices. Output 3 can double as a second headphone jack. (See Making Connections on page 8 of this manual for more information.)

  • Page 6: Making Connections

    Microphones should always be connected to the T4 with XLR cables. Stereo microphones should always be connected to the same stereo pair of T4 inputs (i.e., Inputs 1 & 2 or Inputs 3 & 4). If you’re using condenser microphones which require 48 volts of phantom power, set the T4 Phantom Power switch ON.

    LINE switch correctly. However, stereo line-level sources such as portable music players should always be connected to the same stereo pair of T4 inputs (i.e., Inputs 1 & 2 or Inputs 3 & 4). Connecting a line-level source to one input and an instrument to the other input in a pair may result in signal distortion.

    To set individual output levels, use the T4 Digital Panel software. Whichever mode you use, the T4’s front panel Input Mix knob always allows you to blend live input signal along with output signal. However, in Multichannel Mode, no input signal is passed through to the T4 Output jacks (though it is sent, combined with the output signals, to the PHONES jack).

    ** See Smart Monitoring on page 11 in this manual for more information. Using the T4 Digital Panel The T4 Digital Panel software is installed automatically during driver installation (Mac users will find it in their Applications folder; Windows users will find it in their Toolbar) and provides onscreen metering as well as allowing you to set output levels for each of the four channels individually.

    See your software owners manual for more information. MIDI In addition to routing audio, the T4 can serve as a computer MIDI interface too. Simply connect your T4 to external MIDI devices using the rear panel MIDI IN and MIDI OUT jacks. Keyboards and controllers should be connected to the T4 MIDI IN, and sound generating devices such as synthesizers and drum machines should be connected to the T4 MIDI OUT.

  • Page 11: Smart Monitoring

    Here’s how it works: When the T4 is in Stereo Mix mode and an INST/LINE switch is set to the LINE position, the corresponding pair of inputs (1 & 2 or 3 & 4) send signal to Outputs 1 & 2 and to the PHONES output (as well as to Output 3, if headphones are connected) in stereo, as you would expect.

    For live or studio recording into DAW software. Connect up to four microphones, instruments, or line level sources to the T4 and start making hits. The superb quality of the T4’s converters means that everything you record will sound great, and the extremely low latency offered by Thunderbolt means that you can overdub with virtually no delay.
  • Page 13 For live playback of audio both onstage and in the DJ booth. The T4 allows you to play back up to four tracks of audio with great quality sound—up to 24/96. Just connect the T4 to your laptop with Thunderbolt, and you’re ready to go—no AC cord, no wall wart, no batteries. Each track appears on its own output, too, which means you can trigger samples, add reverb, delays or other kinds of processing to craft the ultimate live performance.
