- Yes. The levels on the synth out should be the same expected by the
- aux in on your receiver. The only reason you should get noise is from the
- Denon unit or the patch cords (if they are not if good quality). The reason
- for the use of submixing (via mixer or Tascam) is so that 4 or more ins may
- be fed to the two aux inputs of the receiver (ie, I have several keyboards,
- each running into one of the inputs of the Tascam, then mixed down to the
- final two lines to the receiver).
