CONNECTING A MICROPHONE
The PZ-Pro includes a locking female XLR jack for
connecting a microphone to the Input of channel
B. When activated, the microphone input overrides
the instrument input for channel B - this is done
by activating the Mic On switch next to the XLR
connection. You can use this input for clip-on
instrument mics, wireless microphones, and even
vocal mics!
The Mic Input,
48V and Mic On
For dynamic microphones that don't require additional power, simply
plug and play. When connecting condenser microphones that require
phantom power, first connect your mic, then hit the Mute Footswitch to
prevent any pops through the audio system, and finally activate the 48V
switch on the rear panel of the PZ-Pro to power your microphone. The
channel B Level control provides up to +55dB of gain when the Mic On
switch is active.
CONNECTING INSTRUMENTS WIRED WITH
TWO PICKUP SYSTEMS
Input B on the PZ-Pro is specially equipped to accommodate instruments
with two pickup systems wired to a single 1/4" TRS (Tip, Ring, Sleeve)
output. This allows you to feed a separate pickup system to each
channel of the PZ-Pro using a single cable. Simply use a 1/4" TRS cable
as shown in the diagram below to connect to Input B of the PZ-Pro, while
leaving nothing connected to Input A. The Tip conductor of the cable will
feed channel B, while the ring will feed channel A, giving you the ability
to switch between the two pickups or blend them together with the A+B
switch.
