on its front panel Microphones or instrument-level
sources (electric guitars, basses, etc.) can be connected to these inputs using XLR or 1/4” cables, respectively.
If you are using microphone(s) that require phantom power, activate the Phantom Power button

after the
microphone(s) have been connected
NOTE
: Phantom power is only applied to the XLR portion of the front panel combo
connectors and does not affect 1/4” instrument inputs in any way. Instruments
can be connected to the combo inputs regardless of the status of the phantom
power switch.

Digital (S/PDIF) Connections
ProFire 610 features coaxial (RCA) S/PDIF input and output connectors on its rear panel These jacks can be
used to send and receive digital data from any device that has coaxial S/PDIF inputs or outputs
NOTE
: Whenever audio devices are digitally interconnected through S/PDIF, you must
set up proper digital synchronization among all of the devices to ensure error free
transfer of audio. The “Digital Clocking” section of this guide covers this topic in
detail.
Headphone Monitoring
ProFire 610 features two headphone outputs on its front panel The first headphone jack outputs the same audio
signal as rear-panel outputs 1/2 while the second headphone jack outputs the same audio signal as rear-panel
outputs 3/4
The first two tabs of the Control Panel (e g , the “Analog Out 1/2” and “Analog Out 3/4” tabs) are used to set up
mixes for these outputs, respectively Headphone monitoring and mixing is covered in greater detail in the “About
Overdub Recording and Monitor Mixing” section of this guide
NOTE
: If the Master Volume knob
9
is assigned to control analog output pairs 1/2
or 3/4, it will also affect the level of the first and second headphone outputs,
respectively.
