Electronic devices and other audio equipment Connect electronic instruments and other audio equipment to the IN3-IN8 jacks on the front of the unit and the IN9- IN10 jacks on the back of the unit. Set the LEVEL switch for the the IN9-IN10 jacks to −10dBV when connecting unbalanced equipment and to +4dBu when connecting balanced equipment. Analog record players The output of an analog record player cannot be connected directly to this unit. To connect an analog record player to this unit, a phono amp and equalizer (or an audio amplifier that has phono input jacks) must be connected between them. Monitor speakers Connect monitor speakers (powered speakers or an amplifier and speaker system) to the LINE OUT 1-2 jacks on the back of the unit. Use the LINE OUT 1-2 knob on the front of the unit to adjust the speaker volume. Headphones Connect headphones to the PHONES 1 and PHONES 2 jacks (standard stereo) on the front of the unit. CAUTION Before connecting headphones, minimize the volumes with the PHONES 1 and PHONES 2 knobs. Failure to do so might cause sudden loud noises, which could harm your hearing or result in other trouble. MIDI connections Connect sound modules, keyboards, synthesizers, drum machines and other MIDI devices to the unit in the following manner. • If you want to monitor sound from a MIDI device, connect its outputs to the IN1-IN8 jacks on the front of the unit or the IN9-IN10 jacks on the back of the unit. You could also use an external mixer for monitoring. • You can also use the MIDI IN and MIDI OUT connectors on the back of the unit to send and receive MIDI timecode (MTC). By doing this, you can use an application that supports MTC to synchronize a multitrack recorder (MTR) and MIDI devices. CAUTION When using Windows Media Player, if the "Sound and Audio Devices Properties" Control Panel "MIDI music playback (default device)" is set to "Microsoft GS Wavetable SW Synth", you will not be able to hear MIDI performances through this unit's LINE OUT 1-10, PHONES 1, PHONES 2, COAXIAL OUT and OPTICAL (S/MUX) OUT connectors. Connecting with iOS devices You can use a Lightning to USB Camera Adapter* to connect the unit to an iOS device and use it as an interface with that device. * *You will need to prepare an Apple genuine Lightning to USB Camera Adapter (sold separately). NOTE • When connected, this unit will not provide power to the iOS device. • iOS does not support 176.4/192kHz sampling frequencies. TASCAM US-20x20 13
