added to the mixer, the meters LED may move up to the red section,

2.4 BALANCED/UNBALANCED SYSTEM
Unbalanced/Balanced Connection
Most of the mistakes in audio installations are incorrect and defective audio
connections. In order to perfectly complete your installation, please pay
special attention to the following section unless you are already familiar with
balanced/unbalanced operation.
What is an unbalanced system?
You can find this system in most of home audio-video system. The connec-
tor uses one conductor to carry the signal, and the other conductor for
ground. Normally for lower level signal, the signal conductor is shielded by
the ground conductor.
What is a balanced system?
Balanced system transmits the signal via 2 conductors plus one ground
shielding conductor. The 2 signal conductors carry the same signal but out
of phase. For the balanced input stage, the amplifier will boost the difference
of the 2 signal conductors and remove the identical part of the 2 signal
But please ask the singer
to perform alive, don
