III. INSTALLATION

This section contains several diagrams which plainly show many, but by no means all, of the ways to

connect the RE 27 or RE 14 into a sound reinforcement or monitor system. Whatever your particular
application, it is helpful to realize that the RE 27 or RE 14 is actuallytwo independent products in one: an
equalizer with input(s) and output(s), and a realtime analyzer with mic input and pink noise output

Another thing to keep in mind is that the analyzer display will automatically monitor the output of the

equalizer section whenever the microphone is unplugged from the front panel jack This feature is very
useful in monitoring program material for feedback problems, resonances and the like.
