Power - Inputs and connections
Use the power adapter supplied with the device to connect
the Numa Compact 2 to the power socket (or use the USB
connection). Switch the unit on by using the power button
next to the power plug of the Numa Compact 2, set the main
Volume, Bass and Treble controls to the half position and the
Mastering control to zero-minimum (the function will be ex-
plained later on this manual) to avoid excessive output power
and allow the internal speakers to play with a correct dyna-
mic range.
The instrument can also be powered by USB, using a shielded
quality certified cable and providing that the computer
has enough power and not too many devices are powered
through the same USB port.
When the instrument is USB powered, in most cases the in-
ternal amplification system is disconnected if the power con-
sumption exceeds the computer‘s range.
PLEASE NOTE: in case of weak or unstable connection, use
the traditional power (see previous paragraph).
Connect the (optional) pedal or pedals to the related sockets,
labelled Ped1 and Ped2; at the socket labelled Ped 1 you can
plug in the Studiologic VP pedal, typically for volume-expres-
sion controls. To the Ped2 socket you can plug either a single
swicth pedal, a volume-expression pedal or the custom triple
pedal SLP3-D, as explained in the related chapter.
If you want to use external amplification systems, or record
the instruments sounds, connect the Left and Right audio
outputs to the inputs of your mixing desk or amplifier, or to
your computer audio board inputs, using suitable cables.
