(1) [INPUT (1 through 16)] connectors

 

(3) [AC IN] connector

 

 

 

Each connector accepts a mic or line level analog audio signal.

The connector is a combo type - a combined XLR connector and phone jack in one. You can connect a microphone to the XLR connector or connect a line signal to the phone jack. (Note that you cannot use the XLR receptacle and phone jack on a same combo connector simultaneously.) See page 28 for details.

Used to connect the supplied power cord (See page 15 for details).

<Note>: Use only the supplied power cord. A different power cord may cause fire, etc. Also note that when you hear thunder rum- bling, disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet.

(2) [INSERT (1 through 8)] jacks

Each jack is used for connecting an external effects processor such as a compressor/limiter.

To connect an external effects processor, use a Y-cable as shown below ( See page 31 for details).

(4) [POWER] switch

Turns on or off the LM16 (See page 15 for details).

<Note>: Do not turn off the LM16 while ac- cessing the internal hard disk. Doing so may destroy data. Even if you turn off the LM16, it consumes a very small amount of power. Therefore, it is recommended to disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet if you do not use the LM16 for a long time.
