Analog connections: use the XLR ANALOG jacks
for connecting to and from +4 dBu equipment,
and the RCA jacks for –10 dBV equipment.
Digital connections: use the RCA (pin) jacks for
S/PDIF connections. ese can be used at dou-
ble-speed for 88.2 and 96 kHz projects.

DIGITAL jacks for connecting AES/
EBU equipment. Use two connectors (1 and 2)
for double-wire 88.2 or 96kHz recording, or for

audio workstation for editing and mastering.
e 24-bit audio files are organized on the disc
within projects (maximum of 99 files/project)
and the files within a project are all the same
