Connecting Recording Equipment

fig.VS-700-rec01-mic-e.eps

When connection cables with resistors are used, the volume level of equipment connected to the inputs

(INPUT 1–8 jacks, AUX IN Jack) may be low. If this happens, use connection cables that do not contain resistors.

Connecting a Mic

The VS-700R provides a balanced (XLR) type connector that
is wired as shown in the illustration. Check the wiring of
your device before connecting it.

When using a condenser mic that requires a balanced (XLR) connection that
supplies phantom power, set

[+48]

button ON (PHANTOM ON).

When using a dynamic mic etc. that has a phone plug, set

[+48]

button OFF

(PHANTOM OFF).

You must leave the phantom power turned off unless you’ve connected a condenser mic that
requires a phantom power supply. Supplying phantom power to a dynamic mic or audio playback
device will cause malfunctions. For details on the specifications of your mic, refer to the owner’s
manual for your mic.

Connecting a Guitar or Bass

Connecting Synthesizers or Audio Equipment

For a guitar or bass,
select the “Hi-Z” setting.

If you want to connect a guitar or bass directly, connect it to the
AUX IN jack located on the front panel of the VS-700C console.

If you want to connect equipment such as a synthesizer or effects processor, use
audio cables to connect the output connectors of such devices to the VS-700R’s
INPUT jacks (1, 2).

The eight audio inputs (INPUT 1–8) contain phantom power supplies. From SONAR’s
“Tools” menu, open “VS-700” and select the “MIC PRE” tab, and click [+48] button to
make settings. When the system is powered up, the phantom power will be turned off.
When you load a project in SONAR, the state that is saved in the project will be reflected.

Use this to adjust the recording
level.
