Emtech Electronics EJ-8 - Manual (Page 5)

This section explains how to use the EJ-8 to properly connect the following audio
devices to a microphone input jack (connector) of a sound system. Use this procedure
with the following:
• Compact Disc Players
• Cassette Players
• AM/FM Stereo Cassette Players
• Tape Decks
• VCR’s
• Radios
• Dictaphones
• Reel-to-Reel Tape Decks
• Stereo Receivers
• Record Players
• Musical Instruments (such as electric guitars and electronic keyboards)*
• Or other equipment with the AUX-type output
NOTE: More than one audio device can be connected to the EJ-8 at the same time. In
this case, the EJ-8’s volume control serves as master volume control for all audio devices.
* Electronic instruments will only work if they contain a preamplifier (pre-amp). If you
are unsure whether the instrument has a pre-amp or not, you will not harm either the
instrument or the EJ-8 by simply attempting to connect it as described below.
To Get Ready:
1. Take audio device and EJ-8 to the most convenient microphone connector of the
sound system. NOTE: You need not attempt to remove the EJ-8 from its case; it
is permanently attached to prevent loss or damage to the EJ-8 and its cables. If
you cannot place the audio device near a microphone connector you will need a
microphone extension cord long enough to reach from the EJ-8 to microphone
connector. If you need it, plug the extension cord into the microphone connector
and carefully place the cord so that the free end is within easy reach of the audio
device and the EJ-8.
2. Turn the volume control knob of the EJ-8 down to minimum volume (MIN).
3. Plug in the audio device’s power cord (use a properly rated extension cord if
necessary).
4. Turn on the sound system and set its microphone volume control to a moderate or
mid-way position.
