D824/D1624 Quick Operation Guide

Connecting a analog mixer

Connecting a mixer that has eight TAPE INs

and eight BUSS OUTs (or GROUP OUTs)

Connect TAPE INs 1-8 of the mixer to ANALOG OUTs 1-
8 of the D824, and connect BUSS OUTs (GROUP OUTs)
1-8 to ANALOG INs 1-8 of the D824.
With this example, you can make simultaneous eight-
track recordings.

Be sure to turn off the power to all devices before connecting the mixing console.

The D824 should connect to an "8 tape in/8 buss (group) out" or "8-tape in/4 buss (group) out"
analog mixing console.
The D1624 should connect to an "16 tape in/8 buss (group) out" or "8 tape in/4 buss (group) out"
analog mixing console. See the following connection examples for both cases.

Connections when using the D824

Connecting a mixer that has eight TAPE INs

and four BUSS OUTs (or GROUP OUTs)

Connect TAPE INs 1-8 of the mixer to ANALOG OUTs 1-
8 of the D824, and connect BUSS OUTs (GROUP OUTs)
1-4 to ANALOG INs 1-4 of the D824.
In this case, first record Tracks 1-4, then re-patch the
cables to record Tracks 5-8.
It would be convenient to connect a patch bay between
the D824’s ANALOG INs and the mixer’s BUSS OUTs
(GROUP OUTs) so that you can make connections from
the front.

By using the optional Model 5042 (8-8 I/O card for the D824) or Model 5043 (8-16 I/O card for the D1624), you can
input and output analog audio signals via balanced connections.
For details about the optional accessories, consult the dealer you purchased the recorder from or our sales office.
