Connecting other equipment

This is an example of MZ-372 connections.

Precautions before making connections

0Carefully read the operation manuals of the devices to be connected and then connect them correctly.

0Before making connections, turn this unit and all equipment to be connected off (standby).

0Install all connected devices, including this unit, so that they are powered from the same line. When using a

power strip or similar device, be sure to use one that has high current capacity (thick cable) in order to mini-

mize fluctuations in power voltage.

0When connecting audio devices, minimize the channel 1–6 GAIN (4) knobs and faders (6), and the MAIN

OUTPUT VOL (8), SUB OUTPUT VOL (q) and PHONES VOLUME (i) knobs. Failure to do so could cause

sudden loud noises from monitoring equipment, and this could damage the equipment or harm hearing.

Examples of connections to an MZ-372

TASCAM MZ-372 13

Connecting microphones

Mics can be connected to the MAIN MIC INPUT (w)

jack on the front of the unit or to one of the channel

1–6 C (MONO) /MIC (h) input jacks on the back of

the unit with the INPUT LEVEL (j) switch set to MIC.

Connecting electronic devices and other

audio equipment

When connecting an electronic device or other audio

equipment, connect it to channel 1–6 C (MONO) /

MIC (h) input jacks, and set the INPUT LEVEL switch

(j) to LINE. The device can be connected to channel

1–6 LINE A or B (v) input jacks.

When connected to channel 2–4 LINE A (v) input

jacks, set the LINE/PHONO (k) input switch to LINE.

NOTE

The C (MONO) /MIC (h) jacks are mono inputs.

Connecting record players

When connecting a record player, connect it to

channel 2–4 LINE A (v) input jacks, and set the LINE/

PHONO (k) input switch to PHONO.

Connect the grounding wire from the record player

to the | (GND) (b) connector.

Connecting monitor speakers

Connect monitor speakers (powered speakers or an

amplifier and speaker system) to the MONITOR OUT

(z) jacks.

To mix in the mic input signal from the MAIN MIC

INPUT (w) jack, and output it from the monitor

speakers, set the MONITOR OUT (s) mic mix switch

to WITH MIC.

Connecting headphones

Connect headphones to the PHONES (p) jack (stan-

dard stereo).

You can monitor input channel pre-fader signals and

the signal before it is sent to the stereo output bus.

CAUTION

Before connecting headphones, minimize the vol-

ume with the PHONES VOLUME (i) knob. Failure

to do so could result in a sudden loud noise that

could harm hearing, for example.

NOTE

Since the headphone sound is output from the

monitoring bus, the position of the MAIN OUT-

PUT VOL (8) knob has no effect on it.

Connecting stereo amplifiers

When connecting a stereo amplifier, connect it to the

MAIN OUTPUTS 1-2 (UNBALANCED) (f) or MAIN

OUTPUTS 1-2 (BALANCED) (c) jacks.

TIP

i When connecting 2 or more amplifier and speaker

systems, including main and sub, main and mon-

itoring, or front and rear combinations, using the

MAIN OUTPUTS 1-2 (UNBALANCED) (f), MAIN

OUTPUTS 1-2 (BALANCED) (c), and SUB OUT-

PUT (x) jacks could be convenient. Moreover, the

outputs of the jacks are independent and have

their own dedicated output knobs, so you can set

the output levels separately with this unit.

i By connecting a recorder to MONITOR OUT

(z) jacks, the signal output to amplifier/speaker

systems can be recorded.

Turning the power on and off

CAUTION

i Turn down the volume of the sound system con-

nected to the unit before starting up or shutting

down the unit.

i Do not wear connected headphones when turn-

ing the unit on and off. Loud noises could damage

the speakers or harm your hearing.

(MONO) /MIC (h) input jack, set the INPUT

LEVEL switch (j) to MIC.

4. Set the MAIN OUTPUT VOL (8) knob levels low.

5. Try speaking into the mic.

Use the channel 1–6 GAIN (4) knob to adjust

the input level so that its level meter (t) lights

around 0 dB.

6. Use the channel 1–6 EQ (r) knobs to adjust the

equalizer.

7. Follow the above procedures for other input

channels with connected mics.

1. Set the channel 1–6 GAIN (4) and EQ (r) knobs

to their center values.

2. When connecting an audio device to channel

1–6, press the SOURCE SELECT switch (5), so

that the SOURCE SELECT indicator (A/B/C/MIC)

lights.

3. When connecting an audio device to a channel

1–6 C (MONO) /MIC (h) input jack, set the

INPUT LEVEL switch (j) to LINE.

When connecting an audio device to channel 1–6

LINE A/B (v) input jacks, set the LINE/PHONE

switch (k) to LINE.

4. Set the MAIN OUTPUT VOL (8) knob levels low.

5. Start playback on the connected audio device.

Use the channel 1–6 GAIN (4) knob to adjust

the input level so that its level meter (t) lights

around 0 dB.

6. Use the channel 1–6 EQ (r) knobs to adjust the

equalizer.

7. Follow the above procedures to adjust other

input channels with connected audio devices.

Adjusting the input of a mic connected

to the MAIN MIC INPUT jack

1. Connect a mic to the MAIN MIC INPUT jack (w),

and press the MAIN MIC (2) switch so the MAIN

MIC (2) indicator lights.

2. Use the MAIN MIC INPUT VOLUME (1) knob to

adjust the mic input level.

3. Use the MAIN MIC INPUT EQ (e) knobs to adjust

the 2-band (HIGH/LOW) equalizer for the mic

sound.

Output channels

Output signals can be sent to the following jacks from

the stereo output bus.

0MAIN OUTPUTS 1-2 (UNBALANCED) (f) and

MAIN OUTPUTS 1-2 (BALANCED) (c) jacks

0SUB OUTPUT (x) jacks

0MONITOR OUT (z) jacks

NOTE

The output level from the MONITOR OUT (z)

jacks cannot be adjusted.

Adjusting the levels output from the MAIN

OUTPUTS 1-2 (UNBALANCED) and MAIN

OUTPUTS 1-2 (BALANCED) jacks

While checking the output level indicators (7), use

the channel faders (6) and MAIN OUTPUT VOL (8)

knobs to adjust the output levels. The optimal output

level adjustment is usually when the output level

indicators (7) light around 0 dB.

When an amplifier is connected to the MAIN OUT-

PUTS 1-2 (UNBALANCED) (f) or MAIN OUTPUTS

1-2 (BALANCED) (c) jacks, set the ATTENUATOR (g)

switch to OFF if it accepts high gain or ON (-6dB) if it

accepts low gain.

Adjusting the level output from the SUB

OUTPUT jacks

Use the SUB OUTPUT VOL (q) knob to adjust the

output level.

If the MONO (0) switch is set to ON (MONO indicator

lit) mono signals will be output from all output jacks.

To output mono signals from only the SUB OUTPUT

(x) jacks, set the SUB OUTPUT (d) switch to MONO.

Using the talkover function

When the talkover function is turned on by pressing

the TALKOVER (3) switch, the levels of channels 1–6

will be automatically lowered when sound is input

from a mic connected to the MAIN MIC INPUT (w)

jack, making the mic signal easier to hear.

To turn the talkover function off, press the TALKOVER

(3) switch to turn it off (TALKOVER (3) indicator

becomes unlit).

Listening to channel pre-fader signals

By pressing the PFL (y) switches of channels to turn

them on, you can enable headphone monitoring of

individual channels 1–6, even when their faders (6)

are set at minimum values.

You can also monitor the signal before it is sent to the

stereo output bus.

1. Press the PFL (y) switches for the channels you

want to monitor so that their PFL indicators light,

and turn the MIXING (u) knob to PFL.

To monitor the signal before it is sent to the

stereo output bus, turn the MIXING (u) knob to

MONITOR.

2. After making mixing adjustments, use the

PHONES VOLUME (i) knob to adjust the moni-

toring output level.

NOTE

i The L/R SPLIT (o) switch can be turned on/off to

change the headphone output mode.

i When the L/R SPLIT switch (o) is on (indicator

lit), the pre-fader signals are output from the left

channel and the monitoring signal is output from

the right channel.

i When the L/R SPLIT switch (o) is off (indicator

unlit), the pre-fader signals and the monitoring

signal are mixed and output together from both

headphone channels.

i When the PFL (y) switch is off, if the L/R SPLIT

(o) switch is set to on, the monitoring signal

will be output from the right channel and no

sound will be output from the left channel of the

headphones.
