Connecting Instruments to the
Digi 002 or Digi 002 Rack
Digi 002 and Digi 002 Rack support two types of
inputs, which correspond to the signal strengths
output by different types of instruments. Instru-
ments such as electric guitar or electric bass usu-
ally have a lower level of output than instru-
ments and electronic audio sources such as
mixers, samplers, keyboards, turntables, and
synthesizers.
The higher level of output is commonly called
“line-level” and the instruments that produce
these higher levels are called line-level devices.
On the Digi 002 and Digi 002 Rack, Line/Inst In-
puts 1–4 support low-level instruments
and line-
level instruments. Analog Inputs 5–8 support
line-level instruments only.
To use a guitar with Digi 002 or Digi 002 Rack:
1 Plug your guitar cable into one of the
Line/Inst inputs on the back of the Digi 002 or
Digi 002 Rack. The inputs are numbered right to
left, so Line/Inst Input 1 is the rightmost input.
2 Press the Line/Inst and Mic Selector switch
(located on the top panel of the Digi 002, and
on the front panel of the Digi 002 Rack) for the
corresponding input so that it is in the
“Line/Inst” (up) position.
3 When Pro Tools is launched and the input is
routed to a Pro Tools track (see “Recording a
Pro Tools Session” on page 8), you can adjust
the input level with the Gain knob on the top
panel of the Digi 002, and the front panel of the
Digi 002 Rack.
