instruments, and line level sources (e.g., mixers, external
preamps). See the following diagrams for the setup that
suits your application:

Setting Up Speakers
When using the built-in speaker, turn on
the SPEAKER switch. Turn off the
speaker when using headphones or
when connecting to powered speakers
or other sound equipment. Adjust
volume of the headphones or speaker by using the
PHONE/SPEAKER level knob.
The PHONE SELECTOR knob
determines which audio path will
be amplified/monitored through
the headphones and built-in
speaker. It does not affect any
audio being recorded. Use it to
monitor one of the following:
CD, AUX inputs, MIC/LINE inputs,
or LINE OUT which is a mix of the
CD drive or CD-R drive, and front
and rear panel inputs.
TIP:TIP:
TIP:TIP:
TIP: Typically, you will want to leave the PHONE
SELECTOR knob set on LINE OUT. Remember that
the LINE OUT level control affects the volume of
sound emanating from any external speakers.
