Tip = send signal
Ring = return signal
Sleeve = shield or ground
6. DIRECT OUT output
This is where you connect a multitrack recorder or DAW system. This output is low-impedance (150 ohms), capable of
driving any line-level device. The signal sent is picked up after the channel fader.
7. PHASE switch
The PHASE switch reverses the phase of the signal at the balanced input. It can be also used when combining two
sources on the same instrument to avoid phase cancellation.
8. LO CUT switch
This switch cuts bass frequencies below 75 Hz at a rate of 18 dB per octave. We recommend that you use the LO CUT
filter on every microphone application that doesn't produce deep bass content or that could cause problems on deep
bass spectrum.
9. MONO CHANNEL GAIN Control
The gain control adjusts the input sensitivity of the mic and line inputs. This allows the signal from mics and instruments
to be adjusted to optimal internal levels. If the signals are plugged into the XLR input there is a 0 dB of gain with the
knob turned all way down, rising up to 50 dB of gain fully up. When connected to the jack input of any channels, there
is 15 dB of attenuation all way down and 45 dB of gain fully up.
10. LEVEL SET indicator
This LED lights when the input signal is a little bit less than the 0dB nominal level, so it can be used to check quickly the
optimal gain level without pressing the PFL/SOLO button and checking the level in details on the LED meters.
11. EQ section HIGH control
This control gives you up to 15dB boost or cut at 12KHz with a “SHELVING” curve shape. Use it to increase or reduce
the sound “clarity” or “brightness”.
12. EQ section HI-MID control
This control gives you up to 15 dB boost or cut at the frequency determined by the FREQ knob (see FREQ next) with a
"PEAKING" curve shape. Use it to add the sound "definition" or reduce the sound "harshness".
13. EQ section FREQ control
This knob ranges from 500 Hz to 12 kHz and determines the center frequency for the HI-MID EQ. This allows you to
select the precise narrow band of frequencies you want to have affected by the HI-MID EQ.
14. EQ section LO-MID control
This control gives you up to 15 dB boost or cut at the frequency determined by the FREQ knob (see FREQ next) with a
"PEAKING" curve shape. Use it to add the sound "presence" or reduce the sound "muddy" or "boxy".
15. EQ section FREQ control
This knob ranges from 80 Hz to 2 kHz and determines the center frequency for the LO-MID EQ. This allows you to select
the precise narrow band of frequencies you want to have affected by the LO-MID EQ.
16. EQ section LOW control
This control gives you up to 15dB boost or cut at 80Hz with a “SHELVING” curve shape. Use it to increase or reduce the
sound “punch”.
17. EQ ON switch
This switch turns on and off the EQ section. It is useful to listen the sound difference with or without equalization.
18. AUX 1 control
This control sends the channel signal to the AUX 1 output.
19. AUX 2 control
This control sends the channel signal to the AUX 2 output.
20. AUX 1-2 POST/PRE switch
This switch sets the AUX 1 and AUX 2 control sends as post or pre fader. As post the signal level depends on the position
of the channel FADER, as pre it is independent. The pre-fader setting is preferable if you want to use the AUX send as
stage monitor, in order to have your stage mix independent from MAIN MIX.
21. AUX 3 control
This control sends the channel signal to the AUX 3 output.
22. AUX 4 control
This control sends the channel signal to the AUX 4 output.
