EVO 4 includes a dedicated instrument to directly connect instruments
such as guitars and basses. The Instrument input is sometimes also known
as a DI (Direct Injection) and provides a high input impedance, which
gives you the best tone from your instruments.
The DI port is found on the front of EVO 4 and accepts an unbalanced TS
1/4” jack, just like the ones you’d plug into a guitar amp.
Instrument Input
When a guitar jack is plugged into the Instrument input, the signal is sent
to Input channel 1 and overrides what is currently connected to the Mic/
Line input for channel 1.
You would then simply set your gain as you would with the Mic/Line
inputs, either using Smartgain or the Volume Knob.

EVO 4 gives you a pair of high-quality outputs to connect up your monitors or
speakers. These outputs are at line level, perfect for sending audio to a pair of
active monitors, although passive monitors can also be used if you have an
amplifier for them.
The Monitor outputs are balanced and designed for use with TRS 1/4” jacks.
However, unbalanced TS 1/4” jacks can be used to feed unbalanced monitors.
On the front of EVO 4, you’ll find the headphone output. EVO 4 includes a
powerful headphone amplifier allowing you to drive almost any headphone
to a good level.
When a headphone jack is connected to this output, EVO 4 will automatically
mute the Monitor Outputs for you to make life easier for you when moving
between Speaker and Headphone monitoring.
