  • Page 25: Operation

    A. The Mic Amp Module A.1 Connection The rear panel of the module carries the Mic (‘IN’) and Line input (‘LINE’) XLRs along with a single output (‘OUT’) XLR. The Line input and output operate at a nominal level of +4dBu although the gain of the Line input can be varied by a front panel control.
  • Page 26 X-Rack Owner’s Manual A.2.3 HF/LF Section This section contains simple high and low pass filters as follows: HF (Low Pass): LF (High Pass): The two filters can be switched into circuit independently. A.2.4 OUTPUT Section This small section contains a tri-colour signal present indicator and two routing switches (‘REC L’...

  • Page 27: Performance Specification

    The following pages contain audio performance specification figures for the X-Rack Mic Amp module. No other Solid State Logic products are covered by this document and the performance of other Solid State Logic products can not be inferred from the data contained herein.

  • Page 29: Calibration Information

    A.4 Calibration Information The X-Rack Mic Amp module is factory calibrated and should only need calibration if a potentiometer or other component has been replaced or if it is suspected that there is a problem with calibration. In each of the following instructions it is assumed that the lid of the X-Rack has been removed and that power has been applied.
