Finally...Let’s Get Started!
The following procedure lets you try out some of the capabilities of
your VM200. To simplify the explanation, in this procedure we will
connect a microphone to channel 1, adjust the EQ, apply effects, and
record the signal.
Making Connections
This procedure assumes that you have installed and powered on the
VM200. (See page 45 for more information.)
1.
Connect a microphone, instrument, or other sound source to
input channel 1.
You can connect either:
a balanced XLR-type condenser microphone to input channel 1,
connector A, and leave the Input A/B selector button on the top
panel unpressed; or
a balanced/unbalanced TRS-type microphone to input channel
1, connector B, and depress the Input A/B selector button.
However, you can use another sound source, such as a synthe-
sizer keyboard or CD player, if you desire. Make sure it is powered
off before you connect it to the VM200.
2.
Connect the VM200 MONITOR OUT to an amplifier and
speakers, or connect a pair of stereo headphones to the
PHONES jack.
You can use the Monitor Gain or Phones Gain knobs to adjust the
output volume level. Lower the Gain to minimum to prevent loud
noise.
3.
Connect the ST BUSS OUT to the analog inputs of a recorder.
Even though the VM200 is a digital mixer designed primarily for
use with digital multitrack recorders, to simplify this brief proce-
dure, we will connect to an analog recorder.
