AES/EBU, or SDI indicator lights for the
corresponding format of the selected audio signal
being input to channel 2 (when in 2-channel

QSDI: Press this button to select QSDI signals.
If the selected signal (except for analog audio) is not
supplied to the appropriate connector, the
corresponding indicator flashes in the INPUT MODE
display.
If the unit is not equipped with an optional DSBK-120/
120P SDI Input/Output Board, no SDI indicators light
in the INPUT MODE display no matter how many
times you press the INPUT SELECT buttons.

This button works only when the unit is in EE mode.
6 AUDIO INPUT LEVEL control knobs
When recording, you can use these knobs to set audio
input levels for CH-1 (channel 1), CH-2, CH-3 and
CH-4, respectively.
You can make these knobs inoperative for an AES/
EBU, SDI or QSDI format digital audio input by
setting “DIGITAL INPUT” under the AUDIO
CONTROL menu item to “BYPASS”.
On how to use the menu, see Chapter 4 “Menu Settings”.
