AUXILIARY DEVICES (INTERACT AT)
The mixer allows connection to a number of different audio and video peripherals, such as video codecs,
VCRs, DVD players, cameras and computers.
Connecting Video Codecs and Amplifiers
Line Input/Output devices such as video codecs, amplifiers and sound cards can be connected to the Line
In or Line Out connectors on the INTERACT mixer. These connectors provide mono-audio.
Connecting a Video Codec
1. Using an RCA cable, connect the Line In on the INTERACT mixer to the line out on a video codec.
2. Using an RCA cable, connect the Line Out on the INTERACT mixer to the line in on a video codec.
Connecting an External Amplifier
Using an RCA cable, connect the Line Out or Record Out on the INTERACT mixer to the Line In on an
amplifier.
» NOTE: Use the INTERACT software to adjust the equalization and volume of these devices.
Refer to pages 26-31 for more information. When using the INTERACT software, be sure to
drag the amplifier to the correct device (either Line Out or Record). This will properly assign
the AEC reference and change the volume command on the controller to control the external
amplifier volume.
» NOTE: The INTERACT COM allows direct interface to a PC from the USB for the audio
connection.
