Introduction - Samson S-patch plus Owner's Manual

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the S patch plus 48-channel, fully balanced patchbay
by Samson Audio!
The S patch plus has been designed to provide a convenient, central point to
make all your audio connections. Featuring solid construction with 48, 1/4 inch
phone plugs on the front and 48, 1/4 inch phone plugs on the rear, the S patch
plus will provide reliable operation while maintaining a clean signal path. In
addition, the S patch plus features high quality, miniature toggle switches allow-
ing each channel to be configured for either Normalled, Half-normalled or Thru
operation. And since these mini-toggle switches are conveniently located on the
front panel, you can instantly change any channels configuration without the
need to remove the unit from the rack. Whether you're working in a personal
studio or larger professional studio, using one or more S patch plus' will elimi-
nate the need to make connections by reaching around the back of your mixer
or equipment rack. S patch plus helps you work cleaner and faster, allowing you
to focus on making a better production.
