Power Switch
Located just above the power connector is the power switch. Press the top of this rocker switch in to turn the DLZ Creator
on and press the bottom of this switch in to turn it off.
As a general guide, the DLZ Creator should be turned on first, followed by external power amplifiers or powered
speakers. As such, the DLZ Creator should also be turned off last. This will reduce the possibility of any turn-on
or turn-off thumps in the PA.
XLR and 1/4" Combo Inputs
The first four input channels may accept a balanced mic or line-level signal using an XLR connector. They are wired as follows,
according to standards specified by the AES (Audio Engineering Society).
XLR Balanced Wiring:
Pin 1 = Shield (ground)
Pin 2 = Positive (+ or hot)
Pin 3 = Negative (– or cold)
In addition to accepting balanced mic or line-level signals using an XLR connector, these inputs may also accept 1/4" line-level
signals driven by balanced or unbalanced sources.
To connect balanced lines to these inputs, use a 1/4" Tip-Ring-Sleeve (TRS) plug. “TRS” stands for Tip-Ring-Sleeve, the three
connection points available on a stereo 1/4" or balanced phone jack or plug. TRS jacks and plugs are used for balanced signals
and stereo headphones and are wired as follows:
1/4" TRS Balanced Mono Wiring:
Sleeve = Shield
Tip = Hot (+)
Ring = Cold (–)
To connect unbalanced lines to these inputs, use a 1/4" mono (TS) phone plug, wired as follows:
1/4" TS Unbalanced Mono Wiring:
Sleeve = Shield
Tip = Hot (+)
