    Front Panel Gain This control establishes the nominal operating level for the channel. The input gain can be adjusted over a wide range to compensate for soft voices or very loud drums. To maximize the signal-to-noise ratio, the gain should be set to the proper level, with the channel Fader (12) set to 0. If the clip LED comes on and remains lit, try reducing the gain.
  • Page 6 Front Panel Phantom Power LED This LED lights when the Phantom Power Switch (11) has been engaged. Phantom Power Switch Applies +48 VDC Voltage to the input XLR connectors to power microphones requiring phantom power. If phantom power is used, do not connect unbalanced dynamic microphones or other devices to the XLR inputs that cannot handle this Voltage.
