Phantom power must always be switched off when using unbalanced 
sources since the voltage present on the connector may damage your 
microphones
The phantom power switch is on the rear panel with an indicator LED 
near the graphic equaliser. 
Always connect your condenser microphones before switching the +48V 

The balanced line inputs are for all balanced/unbalanced line level 
signals from keyboards, drum machines,tape machines and DI boxes. 
(eg; from guitars and basses)

2)    LINE INPUT  (JACK)

3)    MIC/LINE PAD

Phantom powering is available to all 'mic' inputs for use with  condenser 
microphones

4)    GAIN

Adjusts the level of the input signal into the channel.
It should be set so that the input signal is not buried in noise but not too 
high so that clipping ocurrs,the peak lamp will illuminate to indicate this.

This reduces high signal level before they enter the input amplifier.
This allows close mic'd instuments such as lead guitar cabs ,kick drums 
and lead vocalists to be be amplified without distortion.

5A)  HI

5C)  LO

5)    EQUALISATION

5B)  Mid 

On Mic/Line channels there is a three band EQ system ,detailed below

High/Treble frequencies can  boosted or cut by this control.Sources that 
fall in this range are cymbals,soprano vocals and keys above top C on a 
keyboard.   

Mid range frequencies can be boosted or cut by this control.The 
frequency of cut is between middle C and top C  .Music sources which 
fall in this range are most Vocals ,lead/rythmn guitar , keyboard parts 
and brass sections.

Low/Bass frequencies can be boost or cut by this control such as bass 
guitar,kick drums,deep[ vocals and keys below middle C on a keyboard.

1)    MIC INPUT (XLR)

The input socket has been designed to accept both balanced and 
unbalanced signals from microphones with an XLR input 
connector. Good quality low impedance condenser or dynamic 
mic's should preferably be used for best results, these will ensure 
the best possible results from hand held vocals or closely mic'd
