Rear Panel Description

INPUTS 1 and 2:

 Choose between the balanced XLR or the balanced/unbalanced ¼" TRS jacks, but only use one. Inserting a ¼" 

TS jack will work—however—we recommend using balanced  lines, especially when connecting any cable over 10 feet (3 meters) 

in length. Consult the Sound System Interconnection RaneNote provided with this manual.

INPUTS 1 and 2 Gain Trim Switch:

 In its +4 dBu position, the Input gain of the respective channel is unity. In the -10 dBV posi-

tion, the input gain is increased by 12 dB (although mathematically suspicious, it really is 12 dB, not 14 dB) to compensate for 

certain recording devices. This switch must be in the +4 dBu position for front panel calibration accuracy.

OUTPUTS 1 and 2

 are delivered by the balanced XLR or the unbalanced ¼" TS jacks. Using both types of Outputs are permissible 

to drive two devices, such as an amplifier and a recorder.

 This device uses low impedance balanced line drivers. 

Do not

 connect the 

XLR “+” or “–” output pins to ground, as this may cause the power supply to shut down. For unbalanced use, leave the unused output pin 

(“+” or “–”) unterminated.
