38 TASCAM DM-3200 User’s Manual
3 – Connections
This section describes how the DM-3200 connects to other equipment in your studio.
Since the DM-3200 is extremely “soft” in terms of the internal routing and patching, it is unlikely that you will
need to spend a lot of time connecting and disconnecting equipment once you have your setup in place.
A patchbay is also probably less necessary with the
DM-3200 than with many other mixers. See “Rout-
ing” on page 47 for full details of how the routing
and assignment are managed.
The illustration above provides an overview of the
way in which the top and rear panel connections are
arranged. Not highlighted are the power connector
and switch, and the two option slots, which may be
used to expand the capabilities of the DM-3200.
