The MA60
media
includes an integral digital audio player, which can play audio

plugged into their respective sockets on the front panel
8
and

.
A standard set of “transport” controls is provided on the front panel to play, stop,
pause, etc., programme material.
The stereo audio output of the media player is mixed to (L+R) mono and routed
internally via the rear panel MEDIA/L1 switch

to Line Input 1. Thus to use the
media player, the rear panel switch must be set to MEDIA (button ‘in’), and the front
panel MUSIC SOURCE switch

set to Input 1/MEDIA.
