Audio Input and Output Connections
To connect your audio equipment:
1. Make sure that the power switch on the Nitris DNA is Off.
2. Connect the audio output ports on the Nitris DNA to the input ports on the VTR or audio
device.
3. Connect the audio input ports on the Nitris DNA to the output ports on the VTR or audio
device.
The Nitris DNA provides two balanced ¼-inch audio TRS jacks for monitoring your audio.
The Monitor Out jacks are on the SD Video I/O board. When you play a sequence, the audio
tracks are mixed down to stereo when heard through the monitor speakers (see the following
figure).
c
These TRS jacks provide balanced professional level audio to your speaker system. Do
not use 1/4 mono cables in this connector, your output levels might be too high.
