For detailed instructions on connecting audio equipment, refer to
the next two sections of this chapter. For complete instructions on
connecting other equipment, such as a scanner, see the manual that
came with the equipment.
Connecting Audio Equipment
The SuperMac J700 can play and record stereo sound from a variety of
sources. You can connect audio equipment to the Audio In port to dig-
itize stereo sound and store that sound on your hard disk, and to play
sound through the built-in speaker. Use the Audio Out port to trans-
fer digitized sound from your hard disk to other equipment, or to play
it through external speakers. (If you connect equipment to the Audio
Out on the front of your computer, that connection overrides any con-
nections made to the Audio Out on the back.) With an internal CD ROM
drive, you can also use your computer to play and record sound from
audio compact discs (CDs). (If you have either the CDT Remote
™
or
AppleCD Audio Player program, choose the program from the Apple
menu and click play.)
The Audio In port on the front panel is marked with an icon of a
microphone. There are two Audio Out ports, one on the front panel
marked with an icon of headphones, and one on the back panel marked
with an icon of a speaker. These sound ports accept a connector known
as a stereo miniplug—the type used on headphones for a personal tape
player. If your equipment has a different type of connector, purchase
an adapter at an electronics supply store.
