PRODUCT OVERVIEW - MIC INPUT CHANNEL

1. XLR input:

 This input receives balanced signals from -50dBu to  

-7dBu - a range of 43dB, which therefore permits you to connect any 

audio signal to the mic unit. The input is dedicated to microphone 

signals.

2. YELLOW/instrument phone plug input:

 This input receives 

unbalanced signals from 0dbu to +38dBu. The 38dB range lets 

you connect any musical instrument pickup to the unit. The input is 

dedicated to instrument signals.

3. INSERT:

 This works in a similar way to inserts on other mixers. 

However, a related “bypass” switch (see 5 below) offers additional 

possibilities.

4. P48:

 This button, when depressed (red light), delivers 48V 

of phantom power to the microphone. The mic will usually be a 

condenser or active ribbon type. A dynamic mic cannot normally “see” 

phantom power (as the name suggests), but passive ribbon mics 

could be permanently damaged by it. So, only use with mics that you 

definitely know require phantom power in order to work. Note: The 

internal circuitry raises the 48V slowly, to avoid “pops” and protect 

the microphone. Therefore, allow around 10 seconds for the mic to 

be working fully.

5. INSERT/DIRECT OUT:

 When this button is depressed, the audio 

signal in the mixer is interrupted and the Insert (3) will work in the 

usual way. By connecting a mono jack, you get the simple output 

line signal on the “tip”. By connecting a standard stereo phone jack, 

you get the (output) signal from the “tip” (send) and the return signal 

will be connected to the mixer through the “ring” (return) of the jack. 

When the button is not depressed, the signal will not be interrupted 

by  the  insertion  of  a  phone  jack  into  the  Insert.  Here,  the  insert 

connection works as a sleeve out or “dry line out post input amp”. 

You can connect a simple mono phone jack or a stereo phone jack to 

the insert. The unbalanced line signal will be transmitted through the 

“tip” of the phone jack. Orange light = depressed (interrupted.) Blue 

light = not depressed (bypassed).

6. 10V:

 This button delivers the necessary 10-volt supply for all 

SCHERTLER  electrostatic  pickups  (STAT-  and  BASiK  series), 

enabling direct connection to the YELLOW/instrument input without 

using the pickup’s original preamp. The button can also be used for 

connecting unbalanced electret microphones to the instrument input.

7. GAIN: Adjusting  the  Gain  affects  the  amplification  rate  of  the 

input amplifier, amplifying a weak signal to a nominal level of 0dBV, 

or attenuating a stronger signal so that a nominal signal of 0dB is 

always present at the output of the mic input amp.
