right-channel connection is at the far left side. Connecting the cables in the usual side-by-side fashion will
result in an incorrect installation and the mixing of sounds from different source devices.
3. XLR outputs
The inner six XLR connections on the rear of the Altair are outputs. The outer four of these are for connection to
amplifiers, while the inner two are fixed-level outputs for connection to a recording device. To remove an XLR
plug, push on the tab on the connector body and pull the plug out.
From left to right, looking at the back of the Altair, the outputs are: 1

Be sure to match the output to the correct channel on your amp. As you are looking at the back of the Altair,
the outputs on the left side are for the right channel, the outputs on the right are for the left channel.
When XLR connections are used to connect the Altair preamp with the Hercules amplifiers, the Constellation
Link is created—an audio interface that is, in essence, perfectly balanced. The positive- and negative-going
halves of the signal will exhibit near-zero difference except for their polarity.
4. RCA outputs
RCA unbalanced outputs are also supplied for amplifiers not equipped with XLR connections. The outer four of
these are for connection to amplifiers, while the inner two are fixed-level outputs for connection to a recording
device.
