Analog audio input connection

The PD606 provides six analog mic/line input channels (channels 1 through 6). The balanced XLR-3-31 type connector on each channel accepts a wide range of audio signal level from mic to line.

Each channel provides the input selector (LINE or MIC), power supply for micro- phone, limiter circuit and HPF (high pass filter). The power supply for microphone supports both phantom power (P48) and A-B power (T12) which allows the PD606 to accept various condenser microphones.

The limiter threshold and ratio can be adjusted using the "Limiter parameter" item in the "SYS SETUP" menu of the MENU mode (see page 159).

As for the HPF, you can adjust the cutoff frequency and select the slope curve.

To record an analog audio signal, follow the procedure below (for details, see "Chapter

5:Recording/Playback").

1)Set the [INPUT SEL] switch on the top panel to the appropriate position (LINE or MIC) according to the input source.

2)Select the Microphone power switch appropriately when you use a microphone.

3)Connect an analog source to the [ANALOG IN] connector.
