Question is; What exactly does the Lt Rt preamp outputs on the top row do? I've experimented with these trying to get sound out of them but it doesn't seem to do anything.

If you run a reference test film (like Cat. 69T Dolby tone) you should measure 388mV on each channel. They only have signal from the optical preamp.

This is for the high frequency slit loss adjustment and you need an analyzer hooked up to your processor to adjust this and a piece of test film with pink noise on it.  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-25-2002 04:50 PM                     Yes they are a handy place to connect a tape machine to bootleg soundtracks and to feed into the manditory stereo synthesizer  |  IP: Logged
