Unbalanced phone plugs can also be connected.
Be aware that if you plug into the [GUITAR IN]
jack, nothing can be input from the [INPUT 1] jack.
If you wish to input a source to the [INPUT 1] jack,
you must remove the plug from the [GUITAR IN]
jack.
6 [INPUT 3], [INPUT 4] jacks
Audio sources such as mic or line (keyboard etc.)
can be connected here.
These are balanced inputs with 1/4" TRS phone
jacks. Unbalanced phone plugs can also be con-
nected.
7 [TRIM] knobs: 60…–10+4 dBu
These knobs adjust the input level. The markings
indicate the input level. Adjust these as appropri-
ate for your input device.
The LEDs will show different colors to indicate the
following statuses.
Lit green: input present
Lit orange: correct level
Lit red: excessive level
Adjust these knobs so that the LEDs do not light
red.
Although the input level will depend on your
equipment and performance, here are some gen-
eral guidelines for adjusting these knobs.
–40 – –60 dBu: mic input
–30 dBu: guitar, bass guitar
–10 dBu: consumer audio equipment such as CD
players
+4 dBu: keyboards and studio equipment
If the [TRIM] knob is raised excessively for an
input to which nothing is connected, you may hear
hum or noise.
8 [PHONES] jack
Headphones can be connected here.
This is a 1/4" stereo phone jack.
It outputs the same audio signal as [MONITOR
OUT L/R].
9 [PHONES LEVEL] knob: 010
This knob adjusts the volume level of the head-
phones. Higher settings will increase the volume.
10 [FOOT SWITCH] jack
If both your hands are occupied with playing an
instrument etc., you can use a foot switch to per-
form basic operations of the D16’s recorder.
The foot switch can be used to play/stop, start/
end manual punch recording, register a mark, and
register tap tempo etc. (p.45)

ter of an insert effect. You can control the parame-
