3.5 Troubleshooting Gain Structure

If a satisfactory gain structure is not achieved after working through sections 3.3 and 3.4,
please consult the following suggestions.

3.5.1 If channel clipping occurs

If the signal is clipping or producing audible distortion, the
gain is too high. Reduce the input gain/trim control by
turning it counterclockwise until clipping does not occur.
Also make sure that the new setting of the gain control
offers a usable control range between "10 o'clock" and "3
o'clock" on the front panel volume control knob.

3.5.2 If channel volume is too high

If a channel is not clipping but must be set above "3 o'clock" to achieve the proper volume
level, the input gain control setting is too high. Reduce the input gain/trim control by turning
it counterclockwise.

3.6 Recommended Input Wiring Methods

Intelix recommends the following input wiring methods depending on your application.
Balanced Source to Balanced Input
Shown is the typical wiring method for
a balanced source device. It has +6 dB
gain and excellent ground current and
noise rejection.
Balanced Source to Balanced Input
If the above method does not work in
your application, use the wiring shown
at right. This method solves certain
ground loop problems. It has +6 dB
gain and good noise and ground loop
rejection.
Unbalanced Source to Balanced Input
For an unbalanced source device, the
drawing at right shows the best wiring
method. Because of the design of the
Intelix mixer, this wiring provides a slight
(+6 dB) boost, and moderate noise and
ground loop rejection.
