Hi there, I want to know how to set up the AVR520 with a DVD player with digital audio out and simultaneously output the sound from my mackie mixer(I am using the mackie mixer as a mic input unit)?
my setup
Dvd player with digital out HK AVR520 Mackie mixer DFX12 with analog in/out
it would seem the case, only because your mixer does not accept digital signals. Are you using a power amp hooked up to your mixer besides the receiver?
I haven't really done much research on digital to analog convertors for mass market, but what you can do is set the dvd player to digital output. Use a y splitter on the digital jack, one going to the receiver and the other going to a converter then to your analog mixer.
Or you can connect the DVD player to your receiver via digital then use the analog output of the receiver (such as REC OUT)to connect to your mixer. But I'm figuring you are trying to mix the dvd with another source? In which case it is moot.
