Connect FROM T1 ToneMatch Audio Engine Master or Aux Output using ¼ inch jack connections.

Connect TO the Compact Channel 2 volume straight up (12:00 o'clock to 1:00 o'clock) for good results. You can turn it up higher, but if you see the light on the Compact solid red (flickers of red are okay) or you hear distortion, turn down the volume on the Compact.


¼ Inch Tip-Ring-Sleeve (balanced) to ¼ Inch Tip-Ring-Sleeve (balanced)

A balanced connection is preferred and will provide better noise rejection over greater distances than the unbalanced connection.

¼ Inch Tip-Ring-Sleeve (unbalanced) to ¼ Inch Tip-Sleeve (unbalanced)

This should work fine but a balanced connection (immediately above) is preferred especially if you will have cable runs in excess of 20 feet (6 meters) or if you hear line noise, hum or hiss.
