Many popular mixers use unbalanced outputs and can be used with the balanced inputs. To minimize residual ground noise,
we recommend using twisted pair cable or short cable lengths in this type of configuration.

INPUT SWITCH
The unbalanced input uses a conventional RCA phone jack. Move the input switch
UP to use this jack.
The balanced input jack is a dual function connector accepting a 1/4" Phone (Tip-
Ring-Sleeve) or an XLR plug. The 1/4" Phone jack is connected according to con-
ventional usage. The XLR jack is connected according to the IEC and AES standard.
Move the input switch DOWN to use this jack.
