Note:

Don’t connect the recorder’s digital output to the DTR-8.4 when the recorder’s digital input is connected to one of the DTR-8.4’s digital outputs. Doing so may create a signal loop and cause a malfunction.

Connecting a Turntable

The DTR-8.4’s phono inputs are for use with moving magnet (MM) type cartridges.

Use an analog audio cable (RCA/phono) to connect the DTR-8.4’s AUDIO PHONO IN L/R inputs to the audio outputs on your turntable, as shown.

You might need to change the digital input-to-input source assignments (page 45).

■Digital Recording

If your recorder has a digital input, by connecting it to one of the DTR-8.4’s DIGITAL OUTs you can record digitally. Since the DTR-8.4 does not convert analog input signals to digital and vice versa, only input signals connected to a DIGITAL IN can be recorded digitally.

Notes:

•If your turntable has a ground wire, connect it to the GND screw on the DTR-8.4. With some turntables, connecting the ground wire may cause hum, in which case it should be disconnected.

•If your turntable has a moving coil (MC) type car- tridge, you’ll need a commercially available MC phono preamp. Connect the phono preamp to your turntable, and then connect the phono preamp to the DTR-8.4’s AUDIO PHONO IN L/R inputs.
