Front Panel - Konnekt 24D - TC Electronic Konnekt 24D User Manual

FRONT PANEL OVERVIEW - KONNEKT 24D
1 FireWire/Power LED indicator
When Konnekt is hooked up via FireWire the blue
LED can indicate the following:
Steady lit: Sufficient power
Flashing: Uploading firmware, hardware error or
FireWire communication error.
Off: The Konnekt has no connection to the
driver, maybe because the driver is not
installed.
2 Mic/Inst ch1/ch2 on Combo XLR/Jack
Combo XLR/Jack inputs. Both XLR and 1/4 inch jack
can be used with this connector.
The XLR connection (balanced)
Connect a microphone and your signal is processed via
the IMPACT™ mic pre-amps.
- For condenser microphones activate phantom power.
See also (6) on the following page.
- The Input LEDs (4) indicate the level of the input
signal. If the red O/L LED is lit your signal is too "hot"
and you should press "PAD/INST" to attenuate the
signal by 20dB.
10
The 1/4 jack connection
- Press PAD/INST to activate this circuit.
The 1/4 "jack part" of the connector is a high quality Hi-Z
circuit that is designed especially for connecting a
passive guitar pick-up system (e.g. Strat-type) directly.
The jack inputs on the front panel are unbalanced. If you
wish to connect balanced equipment using TRS jacks
you should connect via the line inputs on the rear panel.
Important!
If you use the 1/4 jack part of the Combo jack/xlr
connection PAD/INST must be set to "in" position.
3 Pad/Inst selectors
The PAD/INSTRUMENT selector can attenuate the
input sensitivity by 20dB on the XLR section of the
connector. If you cannot attenuate the signal
sufficiently using the GAIN/TRIM knob you should
use the -20 position. This is typical when connecting
line-level instruments.
