STUDIO WIZARD
Main Unit
The main unit of the Studio Wizard can be placed
in a typical audio rack with the rest of your gear
(amplifiers, equalizers, etc). On this unit you will
find all of the Studio Wizards inputs and outputs,
as well as trim controls ensuring that audio lev-
els of the different inputs (and outputs) are not
excessive. In any permanent set up, you may
be able to plug your inputs and outputs into the
Studio Wizard’s main unit and leave it alone
from then on – all control over your audio can be
achieved through the remote unit.

be connected to the talkback mic input just to the
right of this switch.

Press this button to ac48VDC of phantom
power for the external talkback microphone con-

the small LED inside the button lights up.
