5. USB Status indicator. Confirms that Revelator io44 is connected via USB and functioning normally.
6. Preset indicators. These lights indicate the preset selection of both channels. If presets are
bypassed, both will be dark.
7. Input Clip indicator. Lights red when the incoming signal is too loud for the converter, causing dis-
tortion.
8. Output Clip indicator. Lights red when the outgoing signal is too loud..
9. +48v indicator. Informs you if +48v power has been activated—required for most condenser micro-
phones.
WARNING: Phantom power is only required for condenser microphones and can severely
damage some dynamic mics, especially ribbon mics. Therefore, switch phantom power off
when it is not required. Consult the user documentation that came with your microphone
before engaging phantom power.
XLR connector wiring for phantom power:
Pin 1 = GND Pin 2 = +48V Pin 3 = +48V
The following information is displayed on Revelator io44's Channel screens. Press the Channel Select
Buttons (< or >) to bring it up. There are three separate screens for Mic/Inst (the combo input), the Head-
set, and the Line In channels. Press the Back button to return to the Home screen.
From the Channel screen, the Encoder Knob can be pressed to cycle through the following options:
1. Gain. Rotate the Encoder to turn input Gain up or down. Use this to bring your connected instrument
or microphone signals up or down to suitable recording levels. Avoid aforementioned clipping.
2. High-pass filter 80Hz. Rotate the Encoder to turn the High-pass filter on and off. This can be used to
cut low-end rumble and other unwanted low frequencies from your recordings.
3. +48v Phantom Power. Rotate the Encoder to enable/disable +48v power for attached condenser
microphones.
Other information on the Channel screen includes:
4. Input Meter. This meter indicates the input level of the selected channel on your Revelator io44, just
like on the Home screen.
5. Gain reduction meter. If you're running any compression or limiting via Revelator io44's DSP
(Digital Signal Processing), the amount of gain reduction being applied will be indicated by this blue
meter.
