CONTROLS & CONNECTIONS
2.1 FRONT PANEL LAYOUT
•Instrument Inputs (Channels 1 and 2). The ¼” TS connector on channels 1 and 2 are for use with an instrument (guitar, bass, etc.). When an instrument is plugged into the instrument input, the microphone preamp is bypassed, and the DigiMax D8 becomes an active instrument preamplifier.
NOTE: Active instruments are those that have an internal preamp or a line level output. Active instruments should be plugged into a line input rather than into an instrument input. Plugging a line level source into the instrument inputs on the front of the DigiMax D8 not only risks damage to these inputs but also results in a very loud and often distorted audio signal.
(In other words, don’t plug a line level source into the front panel jacks of channel 1 or 2.)
