QUADRAXIAL CABLE

 

This sturdy yet flexible earphone cable is an industry first, with four 

signal paths (for monitor and ambient signals) in a plug-and-play 

design for easy field replacement (similar to the coaxial connectors 

on our conventional IEMs). Dual 1/8-inch TRRS connectors plug into 

the 3D-AARO bodypack. Integral bend maintainers help retain a 

good fit over the ears; split adjuster snugs cable behind head. The 

cable is 52 inches long, and available in silver or black.

INDICATOR LIGHTS

There are 

 ve LEDs on the top panel of the 3D bodypack mixer, 

designed to provide at-a-glance operating status. 

 

PEAK

 - A single red LED that is normally off. When the signal level nears 3D 

system peak clipping output, it flashes. If it lights repeatedly, either the 

monitor input or the ambient level is too loud. Turn down the volume of 

your monitor mix until the peak light goes out. If this does not solve the 

problem, open the 3D bodypack and turn down the ambience level until the 

Peak LED stops flashing. NOTE: On loud stages, it is common for this LED 

to be lit when in Full Ambient mode.

glow, getting brighter as battery life is reduced. After about 6 hours use, 

only the red (or yellow) is lit. When the green LED goes out, battery 

replacement is advised.

LOUD 

– Labeled as Monitor and Ambient, these yellow LEDs light to 

indicate signal presence from these inputs. When glowing bright yellow, the 

sound from that source is very loud and the 3D limiter (if engaged) for that 

function may become active. WARNING: Prolonged listening with Peak LED 

lit may damage hearing (see page 3).

BATTERY

 - Located beside the 

power switch, these two LEDs 

show when the bodypack mixer is 

on, and the approximate battery 

condition. With a fresh battery, 

only the green one is lit. With 

continued use, the red LED 

(yellow on some mixers) begins to
