connecting the I•OnIx u42S

Microphones

Plug an XLR cable directly from a microphone into the desired Mic/Inst
input on the U42S rear panel.
If your microphone requires phantom power, first make sure the microphone
is connected, then press the +48V button/LED for the corresponding input
pair on the rear panel. If your mics don't need phantom power, it is best to
leave it off.
Note: Some microphones can be damaged by +48V phantom power.
Consult your microphone's documentation before enabling +48V phantom
power.

Line Level Sources

Line level sources include keyboards, drum machines, CD players, and exter-
nal microphone preamps and effects. Plug a 1/4" TS (unbalanced) or TRS
(balanced) cable directly from the line level source into the desired Mic/Inst
input on the U42S rear panel.

Instruments

The Instrument jacks on the right side panel accept signals from instruments
like electric guitars and basses. Plug a standard unbalanced 1/4" TS (instru-
ment) cable directly from the instrument into one of the Instrument input
jacks on the right side panel of U42S.

Computer/Digital Audio Workstation (DAW)

Connect your computer's USB port to the USB port on the U42S rear panel
using a standard USB cable (included).

Headphones

Connect headphones to the Headphone jack(s) located on the left side panel.
The Headphone jacks accept 1⁄4" TRS connectors. Adjust headphone vol-
ume with the Phones 1 or Phones 2 Level knobs.

Monitor Speakers

Using ¼" cables, connect the L/R Main Output jacks on the rear panel to
the appropriate inputs on your mixer, power amp, or powered monitors.
Adjust the output volume with the Output Level knob. For best perfor-
mance, use balanced cables.
