O
) if the [SIG/PEAK] LED keeps lighting up red or if
the sound is distorting.

channel 1 or 2 while the switch is still on.
(
To prevent this product or your external device from malfunctioning and to prevent noise, turn phantom power on/off only when
the channel 1/2 faders are at minimum setting.
d
[PAD] switch
These switches attenuate the input signal level.
Turn these switches on if the input audio sounds distorted or if it seems too loud.
e
[GUITAR (HI-Z)] switch
Use this switch to change the input impedance for channel 2, either on (
O

connecting an instrument with high output impedance like an electric guitar or bass guitar to channel 2. If you will
use the “on” setting for this switch, connect your instrument to this product with an unbalanced phone connector.
The product will not work correctly if you use a balanced cable.
WARNING
(
Set the output controls such as the [MONITOR] knob and the [MONITOR PHONES] [
H
] knob to their minimum setting before
toggling this switch. This is because the levels may suddenly get loud, which could damage your hearing or cause external
devices to malfunction.
f

input audio from the USB port. For details on what happens when this is switched to USB, see “Settings on the
computer” in “Connecting to your computer and configuring the settings (Windows)” (p.24) or “Settings on the
computer” in “Connecting to your computer and configuring the settings (Mac)” (p.27).
