FUNCTIONS
MIC input (Ch. 1 - Ch. 5/6) Connect your microphones to these balanced XLR connectors: pin1=Ground, pin2=Hot, pin3=Cold. These inputs are
provided with +48 V phantom power for condenser or electret microphones. Gain scale 0 dB/‑50 dB.
LINE input (Ch. 1 - Ch. 2) Connect your line level devices to these TRS jack connectors: tip=Hot, ring=Cold, sleeve=Ground. These inputs are suitable for
external pre‑amplifier and DI‑boxes. Gain scale +15 dB/‑35 dB.
INSERT. (Ch. 1 - Ch. 2) These TRS connectors: tip=send, ring=Return, sleeve=common ground allow to send the signal, thru an unbalanced line, to external
devices (i.e. compressor) and return the processed signal back into the channel.
GAIN (Ch. 1 - Ch. 5/6) This controls the level gain (0 dB/‑50 dB for microphone input and +15 dB/‑35 dB for line input when in use).
LOW CUT switch: Press this button to cut off frequency below 75 Hz with a slope of 12 dB/oct. This is useful to prevent rumbling when using microphones.
STEREO LINE INPUT (Ch. 3/4 -
Ch. 5/6) Plug in your keyboard,
line level or stereo devices
here. Gain scale +15 dB/‑
35 dB (Ch. 3/4 ‑ Ch. 5/6). The
corresponding channel works as
a mono channel when MIC input
3/4 or 5/6 is used.
COMP (Ch. 1 - Ch. 2) A single potentiometer controls both compressor threshold
and ratio.
RCA LINE INPUT
(Ch. 7/8 - Ch. 9/10) Plug in your
low‑level or consumer devices,
like CD players, computers or
mobile phones here (adapter
needed). LINE INPUT Ch. 7/8
and Ch. 9/10 are replicated on a
¼ inch jack.
STEREO RETURN Connect
signals from external devices,
such as FX modules, to these
unbalanced TRS jacks.
2TK IN – 2TK OUT. These
unbalanced RCA connectors are
suitable for connecting audio
player and recorder devices.
