CONNECTIONS
It is easy to interface the unit with a wide variety of equipment. The front
panel houses 2 dual-purpose ¼" / XLR input jacks, and the rear houses
balanced XLR ins and outs as well as unbalanced ¼" outs. Standard ¼" and
XLR inputs and outputs make patching simple.
ANALOG CONNECTIONS
DUAL PURPOSE INPUT JACKS (FRONT)
The front mounted, dual-purpose jacks act as both balanced XLR
jacks, and unbalanced ¼" jacks.
The XLR Input jacks are primarily intended for microphone input, and
as such, can furnish Phantom Power when needed. They can handle
up to +19 dBu signals, which is the hottest signal you would get out of
any microphone. For even hotter input signals, you should use the ¼ "
input jack. The XLR Input jack's medium input impedance is extremely
flat over a wide frequency range, which allows it to be musically neutral
to virtually any microphone (one of the lesser known secrets – it's why
the unit will always sound good!).
The ¼" Input jacks are for instrument and line level inputs. They hav e
high input impedance to minimize any loading effects on instrument
pickups. They can also handle up to +22 dBu signals for line level
signals.
XLR INPUT JACKS (REAR)
The rear XLR input jacks function the same as the front jacks. They
are directly wired together, and both cannot operate simultaneously.
If the rear XLR input and its matching front ¼ " input are both in use,
