Folks sometimes ask us, "why isn't there extra mixer circuitry included

with the Wave/4"? When we designed the Wave/4 card, we concluded

that having a built-in mixer would make it more complicated to use the

card in conjunction with an external mixer. Also, when extra mixer

circuitry is included in a sound card, an extra level of amplification is

required. This might diminish audio quality and add noise. So the

Wave/4 design follows the same model set by the popular CardD+ PC

audio card (a very high quality card). We decided to avoid needless

complexity and preserve the highest audio quality.

Connecting the Wave/4 to a mixer

Below are some block diagrams for connecting the Wave/4 card to a

mixer. The Wave/4 card can be used with a wide variety of mixers that

are available from many different manufacturers. If you are consider-

ing the purchase of a mixer for your recording setup, you can buy a

small line-level mixer; we've seen them as low as US $150. A more

flexible option would be a small console with prices that start at

around US $300.

If your mixer has channel inserts (also called patch points), for quietest

operation, we recommend that you directly patch the Wave/4 inputs to

the channels at the inserts points.

flexibility and allow you to monitor all the Wave/4 inputs and outputs

as you're recording.

If your mixer does not have channel inserts, you can achieve similar

flexibility by splitting the input signal prior to the mixer with Y-

adapters. Since the Wave/4 requires a line level signal, you will need

to make sure that any low-level signals, such as microphones, are

preamplified prior to the signal split.
