When connecting a microphone make sure that the pin assignment is correct. Always make sure to read the manual of the microphone you want to connect. The XLR- inputs are not suitable for connecting line level signals like an additional mixing console, FX-unit, etc.

Low cut switch If you push the “Low Cut” button, a filter will be inserted into the audio chain of the Sessionmix 12 DSP that has a characteristic 75Hz, 18dB/oct high pass characteristic to cut any undesired low frequencies. This function can be used to cut the humming sound or to prevent resonances of low frequencies, when the speakers are placed in close distance.

So both balanced and unbalanced microphones can be connected. Unbalanced microphones may be damaged if the Phantom power is activated however unbalanced microphones are rarely to be found these days.
