CAUTION – HIGH VOLUME LEVELS WITH AUDIO PRODUCTS!
This equipment is intended for professional use. Therefore, commercial use of this equipment is subject
to the respectively applicable national accident prevention rules and regulations. As a manufacturer, Adam
Hall is obligated to notify you formally about the existence of potential health risks. Hearing damage due to
high volume and prolonged exposure: When in use, this product is capable of producing high sound-pres-
sure levels (SPL) that can lead to irreversible hearing damage in performers, employees, and audience

This ultra low noise 1U 19” microphone splitter provides eight balanced XLR input channels each with two
transformer isolated balanced XLR outputs. For extra versatility, the front panel LINK switches allow you
to route a single input signal to multiple outputs, e.g. to simultaneously feed FOH, monitor, recording and
broadcast mixing consoles. Alternatively, they let you merge two input signals into a single output or sum L
and R stereo signals to mono. In addition, each channel features a ground lift switch to eliminate hum and
interference.
1 CHANNEL INPUT WITH GROUND LIFT SWITCH
In the up position, this switch breaks the ground connection between the channel’s XLR input and outputs.
This eliminates hum and interference caused by ground loops resulting from electronic equipment connected
to the channel’s input and outputs.
2 LINK SWITCH
In the down position, the LINK switches combine channels 1+2, 3+4, 5+6 and 7+8 respectively. This
doubles the number of outputs for a single input or lets you merge the channel pairs’ input signals into a
single output signal, e.g. for mono summing stereo signals.
3 CHANNEL OUTPUTS
The LINK OUT delivers the respective channel’s direct input signal while the OUT connector provides a
transformer isolated signal.
NOTE:
Phantom power to condenser microphones or DI boxes must be provided by equipment connected
to the LINK ouputs. Because of the use of transformers, the isolated outputs cannot pass phantom power
to the channels’ inputs.
