Hardware Controls & Connectors
Complete details about all Arrow hardware controls and connector jacks are provided in
this chapter.
Tip: To learn how to set input gain levels (Mic, Line, and Hi-Z instrument) and
output volumes (monitors and headphones), see
Levels in the Getting Started chapter.

Controls Overview

Some Arrow controls have multiple functions. The function of each control depends
on the current operating mode and the current settings within that mode. To control a
particular function, the control must be activated.
Operating Modes
Arrow's top panel has two operating modes: PREAMP and MONITOR. The function and
availability of the top panel controls vary depending on the active operating mode. The
active mode is selected with the PREAMP and MONITOR buttons. Press the button to
activate the mode. Each mode is explained in greater detail below.
Tip: All top panel functions can be operated at the same time (without switching
modes) from within the companion Console software application.
PREAMP Mode
When Arrow is in preamp mode, the top panel controls adjust the input
functions only. To adjust any input function, press the PREAMP button to
enter preamp mode and activate the input channel controls.
Important:
Arrow must be in PREAMP mode to adjust input channel
settings with the hardware controls. Input settings can be adjusted with
the Console software application when Arrow is not in preamp mode.
Preamp Channels
Arrow has two independent analog input channels. Each input channel has a
preamplifier. Both input channels can be independently controlled and used at the same
time for A/D conversion.
Preamp Controls
Arrow has one set of input channel preamp controls. The input channel controls adjust
all preamp functions for the currently selected input channel. The other input channel
preamp can be adjusted by changing the selected channel.
