1. The jacks OUT LEFT and OUT RIGHT
9
on the module‘s rear output all
signals in stereo. Connect these jacks to two line-inputs of a mixing desk, 
a computer-audio-interface or to an amplifier using two 6.3 mm cables 
(TS). Alternatively or in parallel, you may connect a headphone 
7
on the
module‘s front panel.
NOTE
All of the DRM1 MKIII sound channels offer individual 
outputs 
5
, allowing them to be patched to the inputs
of a mixing console or an audio-interface. Find more 
details in chapter “Individual Outputs/Inserts” on page 
23. Use the stereo output as a starting point.
2. Before switching on the unit by pressing its POWER button
1
, complete
all audio connections to avoid loud impulses and cracking noises in your 
audio system. These peaks can lead to distortion and could even harm con-
verters when connected directly to an audio-interface. For safety reasons, 
while connecting and powering up the unit, turn down the MASTER control 
6
of the DRM1 MKIII as well as the input controls of the units that follow
in the signal chain. After powering up the DRM1 MKIII, a corresponding red 
LED next to the POWER button 
1
will light up.
Setting up MIDI connections
1. The unit that is supposed to control the DRM1 MKIII’s sounds needs to
be connected to the DRM1’s MIDI IN jack
10
. This can be a groove box, a
hardware-sequencer, the MIDI output of a software-sequencer (using the 
computer’s audio- or MIDI-interface) or a keyboard.
2. MIDI THRU forwards the MIDI data from the DRM1 MKIII’s MIDI input and
allows connecting more MIDI devices.
