Mixing Link User Guide Controls and Indicators
5
Controls and Indicators
(1) INPUT GAIN Knob
Sets the gain for Mixing Link’s microphone pre-amp. The total gain range available on the
INPUT GAIN knob depends on the connector the signal is attached to and the setting of
the GAIN button located on the right side of the Mixing Link, just above the “INST IN” jack.
Each input connector yields different ranges for the INPUT GAIN knob. The following table
lists the gain range for each input and setting for the GAIN button:
INPUT GAIN = HI GAIN = LO
MIC XLR IN +33 dB ~ +66 dB +10 dB ~ +36 dB
LINE TRS IN +9 dB ~ +42 dB -14 dB ~ +12 dB
INSTRUMENT IN
+14 dB ~ +47 dB -9 dB ~ +17 dB
The output level at the “TO FX” (SEND) jack is controlled by the INPUT GAIN knob.
(2) GAIN Button
Located on the right side of Mixing Link next to the “INST IN” jack, the GAIN button
changes the total gain range of the Input Gain knob by ~22dB.
Button In = LO gain. L ine level signals (keyboards, bass).
Button Out = HI gain. Microphones, electric guitars and other low output instruments.
Don’t be afraid to try the two gain settings for different types of inputs, Mixing Link’s inputs
are well protected.
(3) Signal ‘PK’ LED and ‘-20’ LED
Below and to the right of the INPUT GAIN knob, the red PK LED lights when the output
signal of the MIC pre-amp hits the peak of its full-range, just before the MIC pre-amp stage
clips. It is fine if the PK LED lights on your loudest notes.
Located just below the PK LED, the green -20 LED lights when input signal is ~20 dB
below the MIC pre-
amp’s full-scale output.
(4) MIX Knob
Varies the balance between the MIC/LINE IN and INST IN Dry signal and the “FROM FX”
Return signal. As you turn MIX clockwise, the level of the FX Return signal always
increases. The effect of the MIX knob on the DRY signal level depends on the setting of
the MIX MODE Toggle Switch located just below the MIX knob.
