Connecting your DP-01 to other equipment
16 TASCAM DP-01 Owner’s Manual
Starting out with your DP-01
External stereo input The DP-01 has two 1/4"mono unbalanced jacks
on the rear panel marked
STEREO MIX.
These can be used to connect an external stereo sub-mixer, synthesizer, drum
machine, CD player, etc.
The signals input here go only to the analog
LINE OUTPUT jacks. They cannot
be recorded on the DP-01, and the signal level cannot be adjusted using the
DP-01.
You can connect a
digital recorder
(CD, MD) using the digital con-
nection, and keep using the
LINE
OUTPUT
jacks for monitoring.
Digital output Use a standard optical digital cable to connect this (rear
panel, close to the power switch) to a suitable digital stereo input of a moni-
toring system, or stereo recorder.
The signals sent from this mirror those sent from the
LINE OUTPUT jacks (but
the
STEREO MIX signals are not output through the digital output).
MIDI output Use this (rear panel) to connect a sequencer, drum machine,
etc. which can be started, stopped and synchronized with the DP-01. See
“Working with MIDI” on page 35 for details.
