 – switches an (analogue) high pass filter into circuit in the selected channel. The filter 

has a -3 dB point of 75 Hz and a slope of 18 dB/octave.

9.  GAIN – a rotary encoder which adjusts the gain of the input channel between 0 and +63 dB in 

MIC mode, -12 and +42 dB in LINE mode and +14 and +68 dB in DI mode. The gain is indicated 

by the OLED numeric display [10].

10.  OLED display – indicates the channel currently selected for adjustment and gain setting.

11.  DI Inputs 1 and 2 – two ¼” jack sockets for direct connection of musical instruments.

12.  ANALOGUE INPUTS 1-8 –  25-pin  female  Dsub  connector  for  connecting  up  to  8  line  level 

sources  to  the  RedNet  system.  All  inputs  are  electronically  balanced.  See  page  11  for 

connector details.

13.  MICROPHONE  INPUTS  1-8  –  eight  3-pin  female  XLR  sockets  for  connecting  microphones 

to the RedNet system via the built-in Focusrite mic preamps. All inputs are electronically 

balanced  and  each  may  have  48  V  phantom  power  enabled.  See  page  12  for  connector 

details.

14.  ETHERNET – RJ45 network socket. Use a standard computer network cable to connect this 

socket to a local Ethernet switch to connect the RedNet 4 to the RedNet network. The socket 

has  integral  LEDs  which  illuminate  to  indicate  connection  to  an  active  network  port,  and 

network activity. See page 12 for connector details.

15.  AC mains – standard IEC receptacle for connection of AC mains. RedNet 4 has a ‘Universal’
