Connecting Audio Sources to Digi 001

Audio sources of two types can be used with Digi 001: analog or digital. 

Analog Audio

Analog audio signals are output by microphones, synths, mixers, and instruments with 
magnetic pickups. Of these sources, microphones and magnetic pickup instruments 
output the quietest signals, and generally require the most amplification. Digi 001 includes 
preamps for these sources on Mic/Line inputs 1 and 2, and 48v phantom power for both 
channels. Mic/Line inputs 1 and 2 accept XLR or 1/4” connectors.

Keyboards, preamps, and mixers output “line level” audio, which varies with each device 
between the –10 and +4 standards. Use Digi 001’s line level inputs 3–8 (on the back of the 
Digi 001 I/O Box) for these devices. Digi 001 includes software controllable gain to
