TASCAM SX-1 Quick Start Guide
Master Stereo Outs
4 MASTER STEREO OUTS
There are two
sets of stereo outputs: balanced XLR and unbalanced
RCA. The level of these outputs is controlled by the
MASTER
fader, found on the SX-1's control surface.
These outputs are normally used to send a stereo sig-
nal to 2-track recording devices such as a TASCAM
DA-45HR DAT deck (but they can be configured on
the routing pages).
The Master output is separate from the Studio and
Control Room outs so that you can adjust your moni-
toring levels independently, without affecting the
level going from the Master out to a 2-track mix-
down deck.
Basic Wiring Diagram
The SX-1’s
CONTROL ROOM
and
STUDIO
outs can
be connected directly to self-powered speakers;
speakers that are not self-powered must first be con-
nected to a power amp. Line level sources can plug
straight to the SX-1’ s line inputs, while dynamic
mics, or condenser microphones needing phantom
power, should be connected to the mic inputs.
TIP
The SX-1 is equipped with +48V phantom power on all
of its mic inputs (enabled in groups of 4). If your micro-
phone requires phantom power, avoid damaging your
mic by turning on
PHANTOM power after you have
connected the microphone (reverse this order to discon-
nect the mic).
