Your SRM-80A will make monitoring, mixdown, and dubbing simpler and faster, thus helping you achieve professional results. ABOUT THE SRM-80 The SRM-80A facilitates mixdown and dubbing between different media types without tying up additional console channels. By connecting the control room outputs of your mixer, inputs and of up to three power amplifiers or powered speakers, speaker outputs of one stereo power amplifier, and up to three pairs of speakers, you will have a highly useful and sophisticated audio playback monitor system. Multiple copies can be made simultaneously through use of the SRM-80A's four rotary SYSTEM SETUP 1 MO N I TOR LI E OUTPU T A N PO W ERE D S PEAKERS SPEAKER B OUTPU T PA SSI VE S PEAKERS SPEAKER C OUTPU T PA SSI VE S PEAKERS I PU T N PO W ER AM PLI FIER OU TPU T H EAD PH O N ES MO N I TOR LI E OUTPU T B N MO N I TOR LI E OUTPU T A N FROM AM P( B) OU TPU T OU TPU T TO "A" N I FROM "A" OUT I PU T N SET S I H W TC TO SPK- C B/ SRM -80 A TO SOURCE I N FROM "C " OUT TO "C " N I OU TPU T I PU T N D AT RECOR D ER OU TPU T TO "B" N I FROM "B" OUT I PU T N FROM "D " OUT TO "D " N I OU TPU T MIN ID ISC I PU T N C ASSE TTE RECOR D ER SRM RU SOURCE MIXER COM PA C T D ISC PLAYER RECOR D ER - 1 SRM-80A / E ­ SIGNAL ROUTER/MONITOR STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE TO SET-UP USING SINGLE POWER AMP Please also refer to the "System Set-Up #1" drawing on the facing page. [. . . ] For example, if the "B" RCA OUTPUTS on the back panel are used for a cassette recorder, the recorder can receive signals from stereo device Source, "A", "C", or "D" INPUTS. OUTPUT SELECT C: The SRM-80A's "C" OUTPUTS can receive signals from device "Source", "A", "B", or "D" INPUTS depending on where you position this knob. For example, if the "C" RCA OUTPUTS on the back panel are used for a MiniDisc recorder, the recorder can receive signals from stereo device "Source", "A", "B", or "D" INPUTS. OUTPUT SELECT D: The SRM-80A's "D" OUTPUTS can receive signals from device "Source" "A", "B", or "C" INPUTS. For example, if the "D" RCA OUTPUTS on the back panel are used for a CD player/recorder, the recorder can receive signals from stereo device "Source", "A", "B", or "C" INPUTS. MONITOR SELECT: This five-position knob allows you to select which device you will hear through your speakers and headphones, the main console or soundcard mix (Source), or the output of any devices "A" through "D". LISTENING LEVEL: Controls the loudness level you hear through your speakers. It does not affect the signal going to any of the stereo devices connected to the SRM-80A. MONO: Changes the sound you hear through your speakers (not in the Headphones) from stereo to monaural. DIM: Attenuates the loudness of your speakers by about 15 dB, without affecting the level of the signals going to any of the stereo devices or headphones connected to the SRM-80A. This is a very useful feature if you are interrupted while monitoring, mixing, or dubbing. MONITOR LEVEL: This high-resolution, 40 x 2 LED bar graph meter allows precise pre-fade level calibration for all stereo devices connected to the SRM-80A. METER MODE: Located to the right of Monitor Level Meter, this switch can be set for the meter to display AVG (VU) or Peak Mode. SPEAKERS A, B, and C: Selects between amplifier / speaker outputs A, B, or C. TRIM LEVELS: Adjusting these "Set Once" controls allows you to set all three pairs of amplifiers/speakers to the same listening level. HEADPHONES: Plug your headphones in here. The high-power headphone amp provides excellent audio quality and can drive low-impedance phones with ease. It may be wise to disconnect your headphones to avoid damage when not in use. HEADPHONE LEVEL: Adjusts the listening level of the headphones. REAR PANEL CONTROLS AND CONNECTIONS GROUND LIFT: Allows separation of chassis ground from audio ground and can be used to reduce hum or buzz. Remember, never remove the third prong on the SRM-80A's AC 6 SRM-80A / E ­ SIGNAL ROUTER/MONITOR plug. These left-right binding posts are provided for speaker pairs "B" and "C". You may connect only passive speakers here. [. . . ] Manufacturer shall, at its own expense, furnish a replacement Product or, at Manufacturer's option, repair the defective Product.
