standard RCA pin jacks. These are used to send the
stereo output to a second tape recorder for making a
stereo master tape.
® AUX SEND JACK

via this standard RCA pin jack. A signal processor such
as a reverb unit or multi-effect device may be con¬
nected here.

These standard RCA pin jacks are inputs for the
“returning” effects-processed AUX SEND signal; the
signal is then sent to the stereo buss. Two jacks are
provided, since many effect devices have stereo out¬
puts. The jacks can also be used as auxiliary inputs,
effectively giving the X-28H ten inputs.
© MONITOR OUT JACKS LEFT, RIGHT
(MON OUT L, R)
The signals selected with the MONITOR select switch
(the same as those heard in the headphones) is output
via these standard RCA pin jacks. These jacks are for
connecting to an ampiifier/speaker system for moni¬
toring.
© POWER SWITCH
(STANDBY/ON)
This switch sets the power to STANDBY (off) or ON.
The connected AC adaptor for the X-28H will not be
turned off even when this switch is set to STANDBY.
Because of this we recommend that you unplug the AC
adaptor when not using the unit for a long period of
time.
