Balanced lines are made specifically for reducing audio interference and noise rejection. The rule of thumb says, the longer the cable, the
more noise your audio signal is likely to encounter. Your audio cable acts as an antenna and has the ability to pickup neighboring frequencies,
and other environmental factors, that may interfere with the way your sound performs. The 'noise' that can affect your audio signals include
electromagnetic sound waves that are generated by devices like neighboring sound processors, computers, fans, motors, etc. Therefore,
balanced lines are the best option for running long cable through your audio equipment. However, if your audio equipment is confined within
a single room or small space, then unbalanced lines will function sufficiently; keep in mind, the less interfering electromagnetic wave
producing devices around your equipment, the better.
output signal from most microphones is rather small, so even the smallest amount of interfering 'noise' will be evident to your ears.

removed for any reason.
1/4'' speaker outputs (A/B). Standard 2 conductor phone jacks
are wired in parallel, with each having the ability to connect to
your speaker system.
Return:
Mono unbalanced 1/4'' connector jack for incorporating return
effect or other line level source. It brings the output of the
external effects device back into the mixer for further processing.
(Impedance: 10K Ohms @ 10dB).
Send:
Mono unbalanced 1/4'' 2 Conductor line outputs. Used to
connect additional recording device or external effects processor.
Applies to the input of an external effects unit and allows you to
'send' your dedicated signal out to the connected external
device. (Impedance: 1k Ohm @ 10dB).
Control the power of the unit ON/OFF. When the unit is powered
on, the LED indicator light on the front will shine blue.
