After unpacking the unit connect the delivered power cable (IEC plug) with the receptacle on the rear side of the
unit. Before connecting the other end of the power cable to the wall outlet, make sure that the „POWER"-switch

Controls

Front side:
On the left hand side you will find five rotary knobs for setting the level of the microphone and line level inputs.
In basic function the microphone inputs are set for mic level and the phantom power is set for electret-/conden-
sor microphones, requiring 48 volts phantom powering.
The microphone and line level inputs are set to automatic function, opening only at a predetermined SPL, veri-
fied by the green LED indicator „ACTIVE". The automatic function can be disabled (using a thin pin tool) "AUTO
OFF". In the basic settings this switch is not pushed in and the automatic function is active. The red LED indica-
tor above verifies the onset of the limiter function (LIMIT). The limiter circuit avoids overload and clipping of the
signal.
In the mid section of the front panel you will see the switches- and controls for the AUX inputs, used for connec-
tion of CD-/MP3 player, wireless microphones etc. The AUX inputs are located on the rear of the unit (twin RCA
inputs) and are internally set to mono/parallel. The required AUX input is selected from the front panel (either
AUX-1 or AUX-2). Here you also set the level and the desired high-/low EQ of the signal.
On the right hand side on the front panel you will find the main level control with metering and indication of
limiter activity and of course the on/off switch with control indicator.
