Wiring:
Connect your sound sources to the microphone/line inputs of the mixing console. Connect the master machine (DAT/minidisk recorder) to the main outputs. Your monitor speakers are connected to the control room outputs; the headphones are connected to the headphone output.

+With this application, the CD/TAPE TO MIX switch should not be pressed; otherwise, the playback signal from the sound card output would be routed back to the computer and would be added to the recording. This would not only be undesirable, it would also create a feedback loop.
