The VM-3100 provides two pairs of RCA/phono inputs: Inputs 9 and 10

and Inputs 11 and 12. You can set up these inputs using a method

similar to the one we used for Inputs 1-8—the difference is that these

inputs have no GAIN knob. Follow the procedure below to set up a

stereo signal input using Inputs 9 and 10. We recommend using a

stereo CD player or cassette deck for this example, though any stereo

device with RCA output jacks will do.

1. With the VM-3100 powered down, plug the left side of your device’s

stereo signal into Input 9 and its right side into Input 10.

2. Bring the Master fader all the way down.

3. Channels 9-10 and 11-12 are special stereo channels, with each

one simultaneously controlling two inputs. As set at the factory,

Channel 9-10 controls Inputs 9 and 10. Bring Channel 9-10’s fader

all the way down.

4. Power on the VM-3100.

5. Press F1-F4 ON/OFF.

6. Press F1 until “→Pre” appears above F1 on the display (if

necessary). Press F1 once more to select this setting.

7. Press F1-F4 ON/OFF to return to the main level screen.

8. Play the device connected to Inputs 9 and 10. If possible, adjust the

device’s output volume until the VM-3100 shows a level between

-12dB and -4dB on its display.

9. Press the F1-F4 ON/OFF button.

10. The display shows “→Pst” above F1. Press F1 once more to select

this setting.

11. Press F1-F4 ON/OFF to return to the main level screen.

12. Raise Channel 9-10’s fader until its pair of signals are between

-12dB and -4dB.

13. Raise the Master fader to hear the output of Channel 9-10.

These steps also apply to Inputs 11 and 12.

II. How to Set Up Inputs 9-12

You can repeatedly press Channel 9-10’s SELECT button to toggle

between the “CH VIEW” screen for Channel 9 and the “CH VIEW”

screen for Channel 10—in the upper left corner of the display, you can

see which channel is currently selected. These screens provide

independent control of each channel’s settings.You can also hold SHIFT

while repeatedly pressing the SELECT button for Channel

9-10 to toggle between the Input Assign screen for Channel 9 and the

Input Assign screen for Channel 10—we’ll discuss the Input Assign

screen on Page 4. The “CH VIEW” screen and Input Assign screen for

Channels 11 and 12 can be accessed in the same manner.

If the signal is distorted after you’ve finished the setup, adjust the output

level of the connected device. If the device has no output gain control,

you can run it through some other device with a gain control—such as a

preamp—before sending its signal into the VM-3100.
