LOOP SEND outputs, and so on. No real magic there. You should be aware, however, that if you want to connect a mono source to the SM82S, use only the LEFT Input of a channel so that the mono source will drive both the Left and the Right channels.

1 Channel Input jacks: consist of eight pairs of unbalanced ¼" tip-sleeve jacks, used to connect any line-level signal source to the SM82S. As indicated, only the LEFT is to be used if the Input is mono and should therefore appear in both Left and Right chan- nels, depending on the position of the front panel PAN control.

Ground Loops Almost all cases of noise can be traced directly to improperly, thus creating balanced equipment that is ground loops, grounding or lack thereof. It is important not immune to the cabling’s noise currents. This is one to understand the mechanism that causes grounding reason for the bad reputation sometimes given to bal- noise in order to effectively eliminate it.

Well, some does, and since 1993, A balanced line requires three separate conduc- more of it does. That’s when Rane started manufac- tors, two of which are signal (+ and –) and one shield turing some of its products with balanced inputs and (see Figure 1a).
