It is therefore recommended that when setting up your system you set up your speak- ers on speaker stands, such as the Rockville model RVSS-2 (not included) so that the tweeter sounds will radiate above the listening crowd. This will guarantee optimum sound dispersion and achieve clear vocal sound reproduction.

3. Keep Master Volume at 0 position. 4. Turn Mic Volume to 0 position. 5. Switch on the Power Gig unit. 6. Slowly turn microphone volume in clockwise rotation until you achieve appropriate gain setting. This is determined by the CLIP LED indicator light. Proper function is achieved when the CLIP indicator lights up at peak levels, it should never be in constant on position.

Line Out Balanced Connection. The XLR / 1/4" TRS jack marked Line Out Bal allows for daisy chaining of signals from one Power Gig unit to another. Simply attach an XLR or 1/4" to RCA cable between the two units to share signals. The input into Power Gig #2 should go to the LINE IN XLR or RCA BAL input.

Keyboard Amplification While guitarists and bassists have their own amplifiers to ensure that the volume pro- duced by their instrument matches that of the other sound sources on stage, keyboards and synthesizers are a different story. They usually have no built-in speakers which means they need an external sound source.
Front Side Peak Level Limiter Your Power Gig unit features a blue LED on the cabinet front to the left of the woofer. This LED is not a clip indicator but a system level meter. You do not have to be concerned if this LED lights steadily or blinks, it is simply monitoring your musical output and indicat- ing to you proper function of the Power Gig unit.
