5. Connecting the Audio Output
The Encore I receiver provides both a fixed mic level
BALANCED AUDIO OUTPUT XLR
(14)
and an adjustable line level
UNBALANCED AUDIO OUTPUT 1/4" JACK (13)
.
The level from the
UNBALANCED OUTPUT
is controlled by the rear panel
VOLUME
CONTROL (6)
.
(Note: As when making any connection, make sure the amplifier or
mixing board volume is at the minimum level before plugging in the receiver to avoid
possible sound system damage. Also make sure that the phantom power on the input
of the mixer is turned OFF before making connection to the receiver.)
a.
Instrument Connection (using the WGT-15 instrument transmitter)
Insert an audio cord with a 1/4" mono phone plug in the
UNBALANCED
OUTPUT JACK (13)
on the rear panel of the receiver. Plug the other end of the
cord into an amplifier, effects, or mixing board. Adjust the
VOLUME CON-
TROL (6)
on the Encore I receiver clockwise to about 3/4 rotation, until the
volume level is comfortable for your application. This setting is roughly
equivalent to a direct instrument cord connection. Turning the volume up to
maximum will provide 4dB gain over a cord.
b.
Microphone Connection (using the WLT-15 transmitter with either a headset
or lavalier microphone or the WHT-15 handheld microphone transmitter)
For microphone use, either the
BALANCED MIC AUDIO OUTPUT XLR (14)
or
the 1/4" line level
UNBALANCED OUTPUT (13)
can be used. The XLR output
is set at a non-adjustable microphone level, similar to hardwired mic levels.
Plug an XLR connector into the XLR output jack on the rear of the unit and plug
the other end into your amplifier or mixing board.
(Note: Make sure the
phantom power on your mixing board is turned off and the volume is turned
down when making connections.)
For your convenience, the XLR output level is preset at the factory and is not
adjustable with the receiver volume control. To use the 1/4"
UNBALANCED
OUTPUT JACK (13)
, follow the instructions for the Instrument Connection
(above), except start with the receiver volume at 1/2 MAX and adjust the
volume control until the volume level is optimal. If the volume control is set too
high, you may overload your mixer or amp.
