12 TASCAM FW-1082 Setup Guide
4 – Connections
Always connect and disconnect equipment to and
from the FW-1082 with the power to all units turned
off.
When turning on power, move from source to desti-
nation (in other words, turn on the monitoring system
last). When turning off equipment, turn off the moni-
toring system first, and then turn off other equipment.
This helps to prevent “thumps” that can damage your
ears, and your equipment.
MIDI connections
MIDI instruments, controllers etc. should be con-
nected with their MIDI OUTs connected to the
MIDI
IN
ports of the FW-1082.
The
MIDI OUT ports of the FW-1082 should be con-
nected to the MIDI IN ports of the external MIDI
equipment.
NOTE
Because the IEEE 1394 cable carries all MIDI information
between the FW-1082 and the host computer, including
messages generated by the control surface and sent to
it, as well as the two virtual MIDI OUTs to the host com-
puter, there is no need to make any MIDI connection
between the computer and the FW-1082.
Analog audio connections
The eight analog input channels have the following
facilities:
When connecting analog equipment, use only one of
the
MIC or LINE IN connectors—do not connect ana-
log equipment to both at the same time.
The
MIC connectors may be supplied with +48V
phantom power. This is switchable for channels 1
through 4 using the rear panel switches.
The
LINE connector for channel 8 can be switched to
match the impedance of an electric guitar or bass.
WARNING
Always take care when switching the phantom power,
to ensure that devices which may be damaged if phan-
tom power is supplied are not connected to XLR con-
nectors where phantom power is supplied.
Microphones should not be connected to or discon-
nected from the FW-1082 with phantom power
switched on.
Unbalanced dynamic microphones should never be con-
nected to phantom-powered connectors.
Analog devices such as compressors, etc. may be
connected using standard 1/4" TRS connectors with
the
INSERT jacks (channels 1 and 2). Use a special
insert “Y” cable for this, with a TRS 1/4" plug at the
foot of the Y (tip=send, ring=return), and the two
branches fitted with an unbalanced 1/4" plug.
The basic connector specifications are given here for
easy reference:
