Analog audio input connection

The PD-6 provides six analog mic/line input channels (channels 1 through 6) with six-
channel mixing capability, which allows location mixing and recording without the need
of an external mixing console. Six balanced XLR-3-31 type connectors, which accept a
wide range of audio signal level from mic to line, are used.

To record an analog audio signal, connect an analog source to any of the six [ANALOG
IN] connectors (XLR-3-31 type), and set the corresponding [INPUT MODE] switch to the
appropriate position (LINE, D, P or T) according to the input source. See “Chapter 5:
Recording/playback” on page 57 for details about the [INPUT MODE] switch setting.

The PD-6’s six-channel mixer provides the phantom power supply which allows the PD-
6 to accept condenser microphones, as well as dynamic microphones. It also provides
HPFs (High Pass Filters) and limiters.
