Preparing your equipment and making connectionsIntroduction
●
AC inlet
Use the included power cable to connect the MV-8800 to an AC outlet.
●
Connection cables
When connection cables with resistors are used, the volume level of equipment connected to the inputs
(ANALOG INPUT) may be low. If this happens, use connection cables that do not contain resistors.
●
PHONO jacks
❍
If you’re not using the PHONO jacks, insert the included short pin. This will prevent noise from being
introduced via the PHONO jacks.
❍
You cannot use the PHONO and MIC/LINE analog inputs at the same time. If you
make connections to MIC/LINE, the PHONO input will be disabled.
●
MIC/LINE jacks
❍
Howling could be produced depending on the location of microphones relative to speakers. This can be
remedied by:
•
Changing the orientation of the microphone(s).
•
Relocating microphone(s) at a greater distance from speakers.
•
Lowering volume levels.
❍
This instrument is equipped with balanced (TRS) type jacks. Wiring diagrams
for these jacks as shown in the illustration. Make connections after first
checking the wiring diagrams of other equipment you intend to connect.
●
Grounding terminal
❍
Use this if you’ve connected a turntable. By connecting this to the grounding wire (“earth”) of your turntable
you can reduce the hum or buzz that may otherwise occur.
●
Foot switch
If you are using a BOSSs FS-5U, set the polarity switch of the FS-5U as
shown in the illustration.
