FEATURES

19 HIGH-MID/HIGH XOVER FREQ. control

       This knob governs the crossover frequency between the High-Mid and High bands.

24 HIGH-MID OUTPUT control

     This knob ranges the output level of the High-Mid band from -

 to +6dB.

25 HIGH-MID PHASE INVERT button

       This button reverses the phase of the High-Mid output.

26 HIGH-MID MUTE button

     This button can be used to mute the High-Mid band.

27 HIGH OUTPUT control

      This knob ranges the output level of the High band from -

 to +6dB.

28 HIGH PHASE INVERT button

       Via this button, you can  reverse the phase of the High output.

29 HIGH MUTE button

       This button can be used to  mute the High band.

30 THRESHOLD control

     This knob determines the limiter threshold.

31 LIMITER button

     This button activates all limiters. Whenever the signal surpasses the limiter threshold,

      the LIM-LEDs above the Gain control light up, signaling that the TXO-234 MK II cuts 

     Back the output level.

  

3 HIGH OUTPUT connector

     This connector outputs the High band signal.

  

4 HIGH-MID OUTPUT connector

      This connector outputs the High-Mid band signal.

  

8 MODE button

       In mono 4-way mode, the right button must be pressed. Please observe the labels on
       the the rear panel of the unit.

           Always switch off the entire system before you press this button, as it produces 

          heavy interference noise that could damage your speakers and/or other equipment.

11 LOW-MID OUTPUT connector

      This connector outputs the Low-Mid band signal.

12 LOW OUTPUT connector

      This connector outputs the Low band signal.
