FUNCTIONS

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.
EQ: a three‑band EQ is available for mono channels:
HI = ±15 dB@12 kHz
MID = ±15 dB@2.5 kHz
LOW = ±15 dB@80 Hz
Dual‑band EQ for stereo channels:
HI = ±15 dB@12 kHz
LOW = ±15 dB@80 Hz
FX post: This potentiometer sends the signal to the INTERNAL FX, level ‑∞ to +10 dB.
The signal is also routed to the FX output jack. The signal is extracted in post‑fader position.
MIC input (Ch. 1 - Ch. 5/6) Connect your microphones to these balanced XLR connectors: pin1=Earth, 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=Earth. 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 earth 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.
RCA LINE INPUT (Ch. 7/8) Plug
in your low‑level or consumer
devices, like CD players,
computers or mobile phones
here (adapter needed). LINE
INPUT Ch. 7/8 is replicated also
with ¼ inch. Jack.
COMP (Ch. 1 - Ch. 2) A single potentiometer
controls both compressor threshold and ratio.
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.
