QUICK START

Sure this seems like a simple enough box. 4 Inputs, 2 Outputs and an Effects Loop. Fine. But at least read this section to get the
best signal out of your unit and avoid potential problems. We'll be quick, promise!
Each Input section features microphone-level XLR and line-level ¼" TRS Inputs. Use only one Input for each channel. Both Inputs
are balanced.
If you are using condenser mics, flip the PHANTOM POWER switches to the ON position. For dynamic mics and line-level
devices, leave these switches OFF. Phantom Power only affects the XLR Inputs, not the ¼" TRS Inputs.
If an Input Overload indicator lights, this is your clue to turn down its GAIN trim on the rear of the unit.
The Output Overload indicator shows the sum of the 4 Input channels, but is located before the OUTPUT LEVEL control.
Therefore, the OUTPUT LEVEL control cannot correct an Output Overload condition. Instead, turn down the LEVEL of one or
more of the Input channels. The Output Overload indicator should remain off.
The OUTPUT MIC/LINE switch changes the balanced XLR and TRS Outputs to either LINE-level or MIC-level. Be aware of
what sort of signal your mixer or amplifier wants to see before you scare yourself.
Never connect anything except a Rane power supply to the thing that looks like a telephone jack on the rear of the unit. This
is an AC input and requires special attention if you do not have a power supply exactly like the one originally packed with your unit.
See the full explanation of the power supply requirements elsewhere in this manual.
