Audio In/Optical Digital Audio In Port

You can connect external microphones or other audio equipment to the audio in/ optical digital audio in (,) port. The audio in port is also a S/PDIF stereo 3.5 mini- phono jack.

The audio in port does not provide power to a connected device, so you must use self- powered devices. You can use a Toslink cable and a Toslink jack-to-miniplug adapter to connect a Digital Audio Tape (DAT) deck or digital instruments to input and mix your own music.
