Wave/824 Audio connections
The audio connections for the Wave/824 are very versatile. They are LINE-LEVEL which means that you will need to preamplify
any microphone or low-level signal prior to connection. Almost any type of analog audio line-level signal can be connected to the
Wave/824. This includes both balanced (3-wire) and unbalanced (2-wire). Additionally, the strength of the input or output signal
can be switched to either the professional standard of +4 dBu (louder) or the consumer audio stan
dard of -10 dBV (about 12 dB
softer). The Control Panel software applet is used to switch signal levels.
For connection convenience, the first
2 audio channels have both
1/4" (6.35 mm) jacks and
professional XLR jacks.
