1. INSTRUMENT 1 AND INSTRUMENT 2 INPUTS
These unbalanced inputs accept 1/4” connectors and support instrument
level sources (including guitars). Note that when the Instrument 1 input
is connected, the Mic/Line input 1 is disabled. The same is true for the
Instrument 2 and Mic/Line 2 inputs: when the Instrument is connected, the
Mic/Line is disabled.
2. POWER JACK
Use only the included PS1225DC power supply.
3. POWER SWITCH
Turns the IO 82 power on and off.
4. USB PORT
The USB Port is used to connect the IO 82 to your computer. A standard
USB cable is included. The IO 82 is only compatible with USB 2.0.
5. MIDI IN AND OUT
The MIDI jacks provide MIDI input and MIDI output to and from your
computer. Connect your MIDI keyboards, sound modules, and external
controllers here.
6. S/PDIF IN AND OUT
The S/PDIF in and out ports are unbalanced phono (RCA) connectors that
transmit and receive either a 16-bit or 24-bit two-channel audio stream.
S/PDIF ports may be found on many professional and consumer CD and
digital audio recorders. It is recommended to use 75-Ohm coaxial cable for
S/PDIF transfers and keep the cable length to a maximum of 10 meters to
minimize interference and data dropout.
7. MAIN OUTPUTS
These outputs support balanced TRS (Tip, Ring, Sleeve) or unbalanced TS
(Tip, Sleeve) ¼” connections. These outputs can be connected to a mixing
board, power amplifier, powered studio monitors, recorder, or another line
level input. When connecting to other balanced equipment, use balanced
cables for best performance.
