Front Panel
Phantom Power Switch
22
This switch applies +48 VDC
voltage to the input XLR con-
nectors to power condenser
microphones requiring phantom
power. This switch is recessed
into the console and requires a
small "tool" such as a pencil or
pen tip to activate. A regular low
impedance dynamic mic such as
the PVM 22 will not be harmed.
™
The Line inputs (49&50) are not
connected to the +48 V supply
and are safe for balanced or un-
balanced inputs. An adjacent LED
illuminates when Phantom Power
is activated.
Caution:
If phantom power is used, do not
connect unbalanced dynamic
microphones or other devices to
the XLR inputs. (Some wireless
receivers may be damaged.
Consult their manuals.)
Note:
Make sure the Master Level
Faders (40) are completely down
when switching on the phantom
power and when connecting
microphones to the Mic inputs to
prevent pops from affecting the
loudspeakers.
Left, Right, Bus Assign Switches
23
These post-fader switches
determine where the Group mix
signal is being sent. For example,
if each individual drum mic is
assigned to Group 1, depress-
ing the Left button will send the
drum mix to the Left bus and
to the Left Out (54) on the rear
panel.
Mute Switch/Mute-Clip LED
24
This switch mutes its respec-
tive Group send from the Group
channel. This switch is equipped
with a red LED that will illuminate
when the Group is muted. When
the Mute button is out, the LED
functions as a Clip indicator that
will illuminate at 2 dB below
clipping.
