YPC-1_E.fm Page 1 Thursday, September 18, 2003 9:57 AM FEATURES The Yamaha YPC-1 passive controller features a 5-way input selector and a volume adjustment function. Since it does not include any active elements, such as an internal amplifier, the YPC-1 can route an unmodified analog source signal to the output jacks. Typically, you can connect the YPC-1 prior to the power amplifier to select the input source and adjust the volume level.
YPC-1_E.fm Page 2 Thursday, September 18, 2003 9:57 AM CONTROLS AND FUNCTIONS INPUT selector Selects the signal source from five AUDIO INPUT jacks (1-5) on the rear panel. VOLUME control Adjusts the signal level at the AUDIO OUTPUT jacks. Turn the volume to minimum before playing the sources.
