LEFT SIDE PANEL Ÿ Balanced channel inputs – four electronically balanced circuits (transformer balanced is optional) in phase with one another. XLR connectors should be wired as pin1 ground, pin2 +phase signal and pin3 –phase signal. Ÿ Microphone powering selector switches – The input sensitivity in position D is DYN 200 = 0.2 mV and no power.

ADJUSTMENT POINTS Ÿ Gain and modulometer adjustment – Connect an AC voltmeter to the Left balanced line output. Set channel 1 pan switch to L position, turn channel 1 fader fully clockwise, Master potentiometer in 0 dB position and switch LFA off. Connect an audio generator 1 kHz 0 dBm attenuator –80 dB to Mic 1 Input and adjust TRIM in the Left Limiter amplifier to obtain 0 dBu (+4 dBu on VU metered mixers) at the Left balanced output.
