88 Chapter 8—Stereo Output

About the Stereo Output

The stereo output features four-band parametric EQ, a dynamics processor, balance control, and variable output delay of up to 300 milliseconds. The stereo signal is output via analog XLR-type connectors, analog 2TR OUT connectors, Coaxial digital outputs, and can be assigned to the Option I/O digital outputs or omni outs.

Analog Stereo Output

The stereo output signal is converted to analog using 20-bit 8-times oversampling D/A converters, and then output via balanced XLR-3-32-type connectors with a +4 dB nominal output level.

2TR Out & the Stereo Output

In addition to the XLR connectors, the stereo output signal is output to the 2TR OUT connectors. These are phono jacks with a –10 dBV nominal output level, and are typically connected to the analog inputs of a stereo cassette deck, DAT, or MiniDisc deck for stereo mix recording.

Coaxial Digital Out & the Stereo Output

The stereo output signal is output digitally in Coaxial format from the digital stereo out connector. Typically this is connected to the digital input on a DAT or MiniDisc deck for stereo mix recording. See “Digital Stereo Out” on page 211 for more infor- mation.
