3 : DP-01FX Appendix

The DP-01FX differs from the DP-01 in a few important respects: it
provides balanced XLR connectors with switchable phantom power
for connecting condenser microphones, there is a built-in guitar/bass
tuner, it provides a multi-processor for the input signals, and noise
reduction, and it provides a reverb effect for the mixdown process.

Balanced XLR inputs

These inputs enable you to connect condenser microphones (the
same type as those used in professional recording studios).
The +48V phantom power supply allows you to power condenser micro
phones. Without such phantom power, many condenser microphones will
not work. Some, however, use internal batteries.
Consult any documentation that came with your microphones for full
details of power requirements, etc.

Phantom power

power to the XLR connectors. Phantom power is not supplied to the 1/4"
jacks.

Input level controls

Use the input level controls the same way you would microphones that use
1/4" jacks.
However, some microphones are more powerful than others, and you may
need to turn down the control to prevent overloading.

Tuning a guitar

The built-in tuner allows you to tune a guitar or bass connected to
input only.
