1 MIC INPUT
XLR-F balanced microphone input.
2 MONO LINE INPUT - CHANNELS FROM 1 TO 8 (16FX USB) / FROM 1 TO 16 (24FX USB)
6.35 mm. (1/4”) balanced line input. You may also use an unbalanced cable.
3 STEREO LINE INPUT - CHANNELS FROM 9 TO 12 (16FX USB) / FROM 17 TO 20 (24FX USB)
Two 6.35 mm. (1/4”) balanced line input.
Connecting only one cable to L/MONO, it becomes a mono channel. You can also use an
unbalanced cable.
4 INSERT - CHANNELS FROM 1 TO 8 (16FX USB) / FROM 1 TO 16 (24FX USB)
6.35 mm. (1/4”) TRS socket. This socket allows you to connect external devices (e. g. a
compressor, an EQ, etc.) to process the signal. For this connection use a "Y" cable, plugging
to this socket a TRS connector (tip = send, ring = return, and sleeve = ground) then connect
the external device with two TS connectors, one for input and one for the output.
5 GAIN & CLIP LED
This knob adjusts the gain of the microphone or line signal, turn it to the right to raise the
level, or to the left to decrease it.
The CLIP LED is lit when the input signal is too high.
6 COMP & LED - CHANNELS FROM 1 TO 6 (16FX USB) / FROM 1 TO 8 (24FX USB)
This knob simultaneously adjusts compression threshold and ratio. Turning the knob hard left,
the compressor is turned off, turning to the right you activate it, until the maximum compression
to + 10. Use this control, for example, to make voices levels more homogeneous. The LED
next to the knob lights up when the compressor is activated.
7 LOW CUT - CHANNELS FROM 1 TO 12 (16FX USB) / FROM 1 TO 20 (24FX USB)
This switch activates the hi-pass filter to reduce the frequencies from 75Hz down.
Use it to avoid that microphones connected to the input channels will pick up unwanted
signals rich of low frequencies.
8 EQ - CHANNELS FROM 1 TO 8 (16FX USB) / FROM 1 TO 16 (24FX USB)
Use this three-band equalizer to boost or to cut the high, mid and lo frequencies to get the
best mix in any environment. The semi-parametric FREQ. control allows frequency selection
from 100Hz to 8kHz.
