Star Configuration with Exo-Pods
In this setup, you are connecting each Exo-Pod to one of the mPress
gallery outputs using a standard XLR mic cable. This lets you feed up
to 14 press members using one Exo-Pod in one particular zone. Set
the level control on the Exo-Pod to fully clockwise (maximum output
level) and then reduce the level if it’s too hot. As many as eight zones
may be set up in this manner, creating what is commonly known as a
star network configuration.

Series Configuration with Exo-Pods
Here, you are now connecting one Exo-Pod into another with the
LOOP THRU output, creating a series configuration also known as
a daisy-chain. As detailed below, set the gallery outputs to HIGH and
then connect from the mPress gallery out to the first Exo-Pod. From
the Exo-Pod LOOP THRU connection, add a second Exo-Pod using a
mic cable. You can connect as many as four Exo-Pods in series from
each mPress gallery output. Any combination of the star and series
configurations can be used.
