Turning the switch on (O) will apply a high-pass filter that attenuates frequencies below 80 Hz.
When speaking into the microphone, you may want to turn this switch on (O), in order to reduce
unwanted vibration and wind sound received by the microphone.
4 [GAIN] knobs
Determines the basic volume for each of the channels 1 to 4. Adjust these so that the correspond-
ing [PEAK] LEDs ) flash briefly when singing or playing the loudest.
5 [COMP] knobs
Adjusts the amount of compression applied to the channel. As the knob is turned to the right, the
threshold, the ratio, and the output level are adjusted at the same time.
Threshold: +22 dBu to -8 dBu; Ratio: 1:1 to 4:1; Output level: 0 dB to +7 dB;
Attack time: approx. 25 msec; Release time: approx. 300 msec
6 [PHANTOM +48V] switch/LED

power to the XLR plugs of the [MIC/LINE] mono input jacks 1. Turn this switch on when using a
phantom-powered condenser microphone.
NOTICE
Be sure to leave this switch off (N) if you do not need phantom power. Follow the important precautions below, in
order to prevent noise and possible damage to external devices as well as the unit when you operate this switch.

the stereo bus, and determines the positioning of the sound image between left and right (stereo
L/R). When the knob is located at the 12 o'clock position, the channel's sound will be sent to the
stereo bus channels (L and R) at the same volume. In this case, the sound image is positioned at
the center.
[BAL]: Determines the volume balance of the stereo channels (5/6 to 9/10) (L/R) sent to the stereo
bus. When the knob is located at the 12 o'clock position, the sound of the stereo channels will be
sent to the stereo bus channels (L and R) at the same volume respectively.
