AUX INPUTS 1-5 RCA jacks
These five stereo AUX Inputs are unbalanced, line level
Inputs available for selection on all six Input Channels.
XP 2016 EXTERNAL PROCESSOR
The XP 2016 port provides the required socket for
connecting the XP 2016 ribbon cable (supplied with the
optional XP 2016). If an XP 2016 is not connected, the front
panel XP 2016 engage switch has no effect. If ribbons longer
than that supplied with the XP 2016 are used, crosstalk may
increase and immunity to RF, magnetic and conducted
interference may be compromised. Don’t do it.
TAPE OUTPUT – PRE-EFFECTS RCA jacks
This unbalanced line-level Output is located
before
the
EFFECTS LOOP and tone controls for recording the Master
Mix. MIC Inputs are mixed as any other source and will be
present at both TAPE OUTPUTS.
TAPE OUTPUT – POST-EFFECTS RCA jacks
This unbalanced line-level Output is located
after
the
EFFECTS LOOP and
before
the tone controls. This may be
used as an Auxiliary Output. For this application, as well as
for more flexibility when recording, a LEVEL control has
been provided as described below.
TAPE OUTPUT – POST-EFFECTS LEVEL control
This adjusts the POST-EFFECTS TAPE OUTPUT from
unity gain to
off
, allowing optimum sensitivity adjustment for
recording or for an Auxiliary Output.
EFFECTS LOOP SEND ¼" jacks
SEND Outputs are unbalanced standard ¼" tip-sleeve
jacks. They provide a line level Output for external signal
processing or effects units. If effects are not being used, these
outputs may be used as Auxiliary Outputs.
EFFECTS LOOP RETURN ¼" jacks
RETURN Inputs are unbalanced standard ¼" tip-sleeve
jacks. They provide the Input from external signal processing
or effects units. Switching jacks are used so there is no loss of
signal if the front panel EFFECTS LOOP switch is active
with no effects connected. RETURN Inputs are
not
appropri-
ate for Auxiliary Inputs as this signal is only selected when
the front panel EFFECTS LOOP switch is active, at which
time Master signal is derived
only
by the signal present at the
RETURN Inputs, the mix signals are disconnected.
BOOTH OUTPUT RCA jacks
The unbalanced stereo BOOTH OUTPUT is normally
used for booth monitoring. As previously outlined, very
flexible source selection is provided as well as MIC ducking.
Remember, the BOOTH OUTPUT is attenuated by 12 dB
whenever one of the front panel MIC ENGAGE switches is
active (unless ducking has been defeated with the internal
jumper. See
Mic/Line Inputs
on page Manual-6).
HOUSE OUTPUT jacks
Both balanced (XLR) and unbalanced (RCA) jacks are
provided. For long runs, we highly recommend using the
BALANCED outputs. The UNBALANCED outputs are
intended for short runs of less than 10 feet (3 meters). Both
may be used simultaneously if required.
POWER jack
The power jack receives the cable from the RS 1 power
supply shipped with the unit. The chassis ground screw
located just above the jack is intended for earth grounding the
chassis. (see Chassis Grounding note.)
