• Connect the output from the sending device (mixer) to either of the two XLR
inputs connectors shown below.
• Make output connections from any one of the six output XLR connectors shown

• If you will be "pinking" the room through the use of the RTA, connect the selected
RTA microphone to the front-panel XLR input, and press the RTA input button.
• IMPORTANT- It is imperative that the power amps are turned off prior to cycling power to the Driverack
Always make sure that your power amps are the last item turned on and the first turned off.
Once all of the connections have been made and the unit is powered up, you can

the unit. The display provides you with a clear and concise overview of each aspect
of the signal path from the input to the output section.
