Connect a pair of cables from the processor output jacks to the C38 RECORD PRO-
CESSOR FROM jacks. Connect another pair of cables from the processor input jacks to the
C38 RECORD PROCESSOR TO jacks.
WHEN AN EXTERNAL SIGNAL PROCESSOR IS CONNECTED TO THE C38 RECORD PRO-
CESSOR jacks, THE PROCESSOR MUST BE TURNED ON AND OPERATING, OR IN BYPASS
MODE, FOR A PROGRAM TO BE FED TO THE TAPE OUTPUTS OR AREA B OUTPUTS.
AUDIO INPUTS
8. VIDEO
Use these inputs for audio signals from accessories such as a Laser Disc player, VCR,
TV receiver or MVS-3 Audio/Video Selector. Connect a pair of cables from the video accessory
outputs to the C38 VIDEO inputs.
When the VIDEO inputs are selected, data is also available at the VIDEO Data port to
feed the optional MVS-3 Video Selector for switching five additional audio/video signals.
9. TAPE 1, 2 and 3
A total of three tape recorders can be connected to the C38. The separate LISTEN and
RECORD selector switches allow recording, and listening to the original signal or monitoring
the recorded signal from a three head recorder. The TAPE inputs can also be used for other
accessory audio equipment with similar output levels.
Connect a pair of cables from the outputs of a tape recorder to the appropriate 1, 2 or
3, C38 TAPE inputs. (Connect the tape recorder Outputs as indicated in Step 6 above.)
IF MORE THAN ONE TAPE RECORDER IS CONNECTED FOR BOTH RECORD AND
PLAYBACK, MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE INPUTS AND OUTPUTS OF EACH RECORDER ARE
CONNECTED TO THE SAME MATCHING NUMBER JACKS.
When a C38 is connected to a CR10 Remote Control System, only TAPE 1 and TAPE
2 can be accessed from the CR 10.
10. TUNER
Connect a pair of cables from the outputs of a tuner to the C38 TUNER inputs. Connect
the Control cable from the C38 TUNER CONTROL connector to the matching connector on
a Mcintosh tuner. This allows you to control tuner operation with the HR38 hand held remote
controller or a WK-1 keypad.
11. CD1 and CD2
Connect a pair of cables from the outputs of a CD player to either pair of C38 CD IN-
PUTS. For example, CD1 inputs could be used for a single disc player, and CD2 inputs for
a CD changer.
When a C38 is connected to a CR 10 Remote Control System, only CD2 can be selected
from the CR 10.
12 and 13. PH/AUX (PHono/AUXiliary)
Both the PHono and Auxiliary inputs are selected by the same position on the front panel
LISTEN and RECORD selector switches. Either the PHono Inputs, or the Auxiliary can be
used, but not both at the same time. When a pair of cables is connected to the Auxiliary
input jacks, the PHono section is automatically bypassed.
Auxiliary: Connect a pair of cables from the audio outputs of an accessory unit to the
C38 AUX inputs.
To use the PHono inputs, FIRST remove any cables connected to the AUX inputs.
