You may elect not to use either Record Output with this particular
device, as may be the case if you have several devices in your
system that are capable of recording. In this case, leave the
display on “RECD NONE” and move to Step 6.

You may also select either Record Output 1 or 2 to be associated
with this particular input. To do so, press the input button
repeatedly until you see your choice of OUT1 or OUT2 in the
display. (OUT1 is given as an example on the next page.)

STORE YOUR SELECTION
Save your choice in non-volatile memory by pressing and holding
the Mode button until the display reads NEW DATA, as below.

Note: The Nº38 Preamplifier has been optimized to yield optimum sonic
performance under normal, real-world operating conditions. This
approach involves no disadvantage when the unit is used as
designed.

Unrealistic tests such as listening at full gain to an

unterminated input

which has been associated with an

unterminated record output may

result in some small amount of noise at the main output which does
not occur when the Nº38 is used correctly. Moreover, even under
these unrealistic test conditions, any resulting noise is small and poses
no danger.

Rather than compromise the sonic performance of the preamplifier in
an effort to eliminate even the remote possibility of this noise being
detected, the set-up procedure outlined above for programming
input aliases was designed to make it virtually impossible to create a
condition under which any such noise can be heard. We recommend
using the input alias NOT USED for all unused inputs.
