DC16 Owner’s Manual

Chapter 4 : DC16 Front and Rear Panels

Front Panel Introduction

From left to right, the front panel of each DC16 is outfitted with a phones jack and...that’s it!

Let’s take a look at the phones jack then move on to the rear panel before it’s too late.

Phones Jack

This 1/4" TRS connector supplies the output to stereo headphones. The volume is controlled with

the Phones knob located in the upper-right corner of the top panel of the DC16. The signals sent

to this jack are the same as the signals sent to the monitor outputs, described in two pages.

The phones output follows standard conventions:

Tip = Left channel

Ring = Right channel

Sleeve = Ground

Warning:

The headphone amp is loud and could cause permanent hearing damage.

Even intermediate levels may be painfully loud with some headphones. BE CAREFUL!

Always turn the phones knob all the way down before connecting headphones, soloing

a channel or doing anything new that may affect the headphone volume. Then turn it up slowly as

you listen carefully.

As mentioned (and seen) above, the phones level is controlled by the phones knob.

Because the phones knob is located on the top panel of DC16, it will be described

in more detail in that section.

A headphones logo with an arrow pointing down (as seen to the left) is located near

the bottom-right of the top panel underneath the bank / channel arrow buttons.

This is to help indicate where the phones jack is located. I keep making suggestions

(see below left), but they never end up using them. No need to fret, though; I’ll continue

to feed ‘em my ideas. I’m sure you like them as much as I do...right?!
