18. TAPE INPUT
These stereo unbalanced RCA inputs are designed to
work with semipro as well as pro player/recorders. You
can also connect any standard source with an unbal-
anced line-level output, such as a CD or DVD player,
iPod dock, and so on.
Connect your source’s line-level outputs here, using
good quality hi-fi (RCA) cables.
You can use these with a tape or CD player to feed
music to a PA system between sets, when the break
switch [35] is engaged. The level coming into the mixer
can be adjusted with the tape level knob [36]. For ex-
ample, you could press the break switch to mute all the
other channels at once, then play your tape or CD player
and bring up its level slowly.
19. TAPE OUTPUTS
These stereo unbalanced RCA outputs allow you to
record the main stereo mix onto a tape deck, hard disk
recorder, automatic CD burner, or a 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
by the main fader [48], or the graphic EQ [37].
