3 ConnectionsTASCAM X-9 Owner’s Manual 11When connecting an ampli-fication system to the X-9,check the inputs of theamplifier. If they look likeeither of the connectors shown here, they are XLRconnectors and are probably balanced.Check the rear panel of the amplifier, or the ampli-fier’s manual, to make sure. Amplifiers with bal-anced inputs should be fed by the MASTER OUTPUT(BALANCED) output connectors of the X-9.All other connectors (mono 1/4” jack or RCA pinjacks should be fed by the (UNBALANCED) RCA pinoutputs.The level of the outputfrom the unbalancedoutputs can be setusing the PRE/POSTswitch to be affectedby the master fader(POST) or unaffectedby it (PRE).WARNINGIt is most important to make sure that you make thecorrect connections. Connecting the wrong output ofthe X-9 to the amplification system can result in over-heating and possible damage to both the X-9 and tothe amplification system.If you are in any doubt at all, we strongly suggest thatyou consult your TASCAM dealer or other qualifiedaudio professional regarding the interconnection ofyour system.Use the trimmer potentiometers (LEVEL ATT) toadjust the output level to the amplification systems.Again, you may find it useful to consult the amplifi-cation system documentation and/or consult a profes-sional sound engineer.Booth outputsThe booth outputs provide you with a sec-ond mix where the level is not controlledby the master fader, but by the BOOTHLEVEL volume control.Connect the unbalanced BOOTHOUTPUT RCA jacks to the unbalancedinputs of the booth amplification system.Microphone (connection and use)To input your voice through the X-9 sys-tem, you need to connect a microphoneto the system. The X-9 provides an XLRconnector for connecting a standard(dynamic) microphone.Connect your favorite microphone tothis connector.Use the TALK OVER key to “dim” allthe signals except the microphone by20 dB (the key lights when active).Adjust the level of the microphone sig-nal sent to the master fader with theLEVEL control.Adjust the tone of the microphone signalwith the HI (treble) and LO (bass) EQcontrols.Use the menu system (18bm) to change the left-rightbalance of the microphone signal.You can also select the microphone signal to bepassed through the internal or external effects, aswell as being used as a source for sampler 1.The microphone signal can be cued (see “Cue (pre-viewing sounds)” on page 16) in the same way asprogram signals, using the CUE key (lights whenactive).or |
