M-AUDIO Delta 410 - Manual (Page 37)

Typical Setup #1
Let’s assume for this setup that we’re recording a guitar and vocal, then
overdubbing another guitar and vocal track while listening to the first tracks. The
following diagram shows a microphone pre-amp and direct box being used (in
this case, the Audio Buddy™ by Midiman), and a stereo sound system. The
pre-amp and direct box are required for the mic and guitar. Many instruments,
such as MIDI modules or keyboards, may be connected directly to the
Delta 410’s inputs.
NOTE: Because improper connections may potentially make very
loud noises, it’s a good idea to have all monitor levels set low or
muted while hooking up audio equipment -- you may even choose
to turn your computer off before making the connections.
1. Plug the guitar into the channel-1 Line input of the pre-amp. Plug the
microphone into the channel-2 Mic input.
2. Plug the outputs 1 & 2 of the pre-amp into the Delta 410’s analog
inputs 1 & 2. Use a high quality shielded cable with a 1/4” phone plug
on one end and a male RCA plug on the other.
3. Plug the hardware outputs 1 & 2 of the Delta 410, that is the RCA
output jacks 1 and 2, to a sound system or power amp with speakers.
4. Turn on your equipment in this suggested order: pre-amp, computer,
then sound system.
