Select the “MasterLR” button and press the
[ENTER] key to turn it “On” (highlighted).
Gradually raise the [PHONES LEVEL] knob or
[MONITOR OUT LEVEL] knob, and listen to
the sound in your headphones or monitor sys-
tem.
2. Digital input
The D12 can record a digital audio signal that is input
via the S/P DIF jack.
The S/P DIF input has a built-in sampling rate con-
verter. Sources with sampling rates of 48 kHz or 32 kHz
can be connected directly, and will automatically be
converted to 44.1 kHz.
Here we will explain how the audio from a CD player
connected to the [S/P DIF IN] jack can be input to
mixer channels 1 and 2.
1 Connect the digital output device.
Lower the [MASTER] fader of the D12, and use an
optical digital cable to connect the digital output of
your CD player to the [S/P DIF IN] jack.
2 Enable the digital input.
Access the [INPUT] “Ch1–6” tab page.
When you select the “DigiIn” button and press
the [ENTER] key, a message of “Obey Copyright
Rules” will appear.
Carefully read the owner’s manual section “About
copyright” (p.1). If you accept the terms, select
the “Yes” button for the “AreYouSure?” prompt,
and press the [ENTER] key. Digital input will be
enabled.
3 Specify the input channels.
Select the “Ch1” icon, and rotate the [VALUE] dial
to select “S/P DIF L.” In the same way, select “S/P
DIF R” for “Ch2.”
The input from the [S/P DIF IN] jack has now been
assigned to channels 1 and 2.
4 Assign the input sound to mixer channels 1 and 2.
Play back the CD, and press the [TRACK STATUS]
keys of tracks 1 and 2 to set them to INPUT (LED
lit orange).
5 Check the recording mode and input level, and
audition the sound.
Refer to steps 3, 4, and 5 of “Connect a guitar to
the [GUITAR IN] jack and assign it to mixer chan-
nel 1.”
3. Using the tuner
Here’s how you can tune a sound that is being input.
1 Use “SelectSource” to select the source that you
wish to tune.
If you wish to tune an instrument such as a gui-
tar, connect the instrument to the [INPUT 1/
GUITAR IN] jack. If you wish to tune using the
internal mic, set the [MIC] switch (p.10) to
INPUT1.
In [INPUT] “Ch1–6” tab page, set “Ch1” to
“Input 1.” In [INPUT] “Tuner” tab page, set
“SelectSource” to “Input1.”
2 Set “Calib
” to specify the reference frequency.
3 Adjust or measure the pitch.
The “Note Display” shows the note name, and the
“CENT Scale” shows the pitch.
If you selected “Input1,” play your instrument
to produce sound, and tune it so that the central
triangle is displayed as “.”
To measure the pitch of a previously-recorded sound
To measure the pitch of a previously-recorded track,
set “SelectSource” to “Track,” and choose the track
that you wish to measure. Move to the time location
that you wish to measure, press the [PLAY] key to
play back, and measure the note name and pitch.
