The Rear Panel

THE REAR PANEL
The Lambda Studio™ rear panel offers the following features:

LINE IN 1-2

These ¼" inputs can accept both balanced (3-conductor TRS) and unbalanced (2-
conductor TS or instrument) audio sources. Each input gain is adjusted individually
using the Line 1-2 gain knobs on the front panel.

INSERT 1-2

Each mic input is equipped with a TRS insert point. Inserts provide a send and return
of the input channel's signal directly after the mic preamp and before the A/D convert-
er. You can insert any line level signal processor (such as a compressor or equalizer)
to pre-process the mic signal before it is recorded, using a standard "stereo splitter"
(single TRS to two TS) cable. The tip is send and the ring is return.
IMPORTANT:
Do not plug a line
