Rane MP 2 2003 version - Manual (Page 5)

Manual-
REAR PANEL DESCRIPTION
1 POWER input connector: This is not a telephone jack! Connect an 18 volt AC center-tapped transformer only. Use only a Rane
model RS 1, shipped with the unit, or other compatible power supply approved by Rane.
2 Chassis ground point: This screw is provided for connection to chassis ground if required. See Chassis Grounding below.
3 HOUSE OUTPUT: The front panel HOUSE LEVEL control affects the volume at this Output. These balanced ¼" TRS (tip-
ring-sleeve) Outputs connect to a balanced equalizer or amplifier. Though not recommended, unbalanced ¼" TS (tip-sleeve)
cables may be used for short runs (under 3 meters [10 feet]) to an amplifier with unbalanced inputs. See the RaneNote “Sound
System Interconnection” for wiring recommendations.
4 AUX OUTPUT: This delivers the same signal as the HOUSE OUTPUT, but has its own LEVEL control on the rear panel. This
Output is not affected by the front panel HOUSE LEVEL control. These balanced ¼" TRS (tip-ring-sleeve) Outputs connect to a
balanced equalizer or amplifier (for a possible second listening zone) and follow the same interconnection rules as above.
5 TAPE OUT: These line level RCA Outputs are intended for use with a tape recorder, but not necessarily restricted to that pur-
pose. You may be creative. These Outputs are not affected by the HOUSE LEVEL or AUX LEVEL controls.
6 MIC to TAPE OUT switch: In the YES position the Mic signal along with the Program Inputs are routed to the TAPE OUT. In
the NO position only the Program Inputs appear at the TAPE OUTPUT.
7 LINE 1 & 2 INPUTS: connect to stereo sources such as CD players or any line-level device. L1 and L2 may be assigned to Pro-
gram A or Program B via the front panel INPUT switches.
8 PHONO/LINE 1 & 2 INPUTS: These stereo Inputs are switchable from a PHONO (RIAA) stage for magnetic cartridges
(PHONO switch in) to a LINE level Input suitable for any line level device such as a CD player (PHONO switch out). The
Phono Ground screw connects those extra wires coming out of the turntables.
9 MIC Input: Accepts a ¼" balanced (TRS) or unbalanced (TS) microphone cable, controlled by the MIC LEVEL control on the
front panel.
