THE FRONT PANEL CONTROLS AND THEIR USE
A
POWER
POWER on/off switch. The amber light will glow when the unit is powered on. Please turn
down the volume of your studio monitors before turning on or turning off the
Sculptor
.
B
INPUT
An input selector allowing to choose between four signal sources:
DI – For all low level and instrument level signals (1MΩ)
LINE – Line signals (10KΩ)
MIC - Dynamic microphones (600Ω)
MIC 48V – Only for microphones which require phantom power (600Ω)
WARNING! Please ensure to not switch the ‘MIC 48V’ position on when using ribbon
microphones, passive equalizers or any other device which does not accept 48V phantom
power on its output.
C
GAIN
15-position audio taper switch:
Mic gain range : -5dB to +65dB in 5dB steps
Line gain range: -25 to +45dB in 5dB steps
D
OUTPUT
21-position output fader. This control can be used as a „fine‟ level adjustment or an output
attenuator so that the unit can be run „hot‟ in order to get some distortion without
overloading the next piece of equipment in the chain.
E
PHASE
This switch inverts the phase of the signal.
