Little Box
« on: April 04, 2011, 02:52:30 PM »
I have a question on the signal light (I think I figured out the other one completely(well probably not, but I have a good guess). while running the little box late in the second set the light came on full time green with no change on the output signal. The recording sounds fine so far as I can tell. Just wondering what happened. At some point I believe it will change colors when clipping.  Thank You!

My first thought. But the batteries Dual 9 volt showed well into the good on my battery meter (actually about half of what a new battery shows). That would be a easy thing to understand since room for error is probably built in.

green/red or blue/yellow?

More like blue/purple, green/red, orange/red, etc, etc, etc :(

The red comes on much brighter than the green.  I can do separate green and red LEDs on request as well.

Jon, are you talking about the level meter in the middle? I can kinda see a diff between the green/red :) As long as I'm not overloading my 722/M10, I dont care what color they are :P ;D

Just got my Littlebox in mail ... right in time for Wanee. But mine did not come with RCA outs. Rather it's got the minijack (two of them). I'm in a bind ... what will I need to connect to a R-09?
