Rear Panel
Rear Panel Features
1 . Light Bar Brilliance setting – toggle
this button to set the desired
luminescence of that nebulistic front
panel light bar to bright, dim, or off.
2 . Inputs – The Pantages G4 features
both Balanced XLR and unbalanced
RCA inputs to connect to your
preamplifier outputs. Any standard
line level audio signal can be
connected here. The STATUS LED
will light blue when the channel is
operating normally.
3 . RCA Thru* – These RCA jacks are
for looping your audio input signal
to another pair of inputs on another
device or section of the Pantages G4.
These line-level outputs are a hard-
wired copy of whatever is coming
in on the inputs. *While “Through”
here is spelled like it sounds, there
wasn’t enough room on the richly
dense rear panel. We sacrificed some
grammatical correctness to fit more
on the rear panel– we felt it was a
decent trade off.
4 . Level – This control provides for Gain
adjustment on the input signal. Use
this to calibrate optimal signal level to
drive the Pantages G4 to full output.
These adjustments are applied per
channel input, so for stereo signals,
best practice is to match the SPL
from the one output to the rest of
the channels on the Pantages G4. We
have detents there to make this easy.
If those don’t work for you can use an
measurement tool like our DM-RTA or
the SA-4100i to test and calibrate your
level settings for each output.
5. Stereo/Mono – These switches allow
the channel pair to be used in stereo,
or combined in mono. In mono,
channel 1 or 2 inputs are summed, so
just use one input. The same applies to
channels 4 and 5 in mono, just use one.
