(4) POWER/CLIP LED

Illuminates GREEN when the electronics receive power (when the Power switch (3) is On). Illuminates RED when amplifier clipping is occurring or the unit has tripped the thermal protection system.

(5) PRIMARY INPUT (CHANNEL 1)

The primary input is switchable between line-level and mic-level input. The line-level input is of the medium impedance balanced type, and when switched to mic-level it is of a typical low-Z mic input impedance. Jack (5) is a combo female XLR and 1/4" TRS connector.

(6) PAD

Switches the sensitivity of Channel 1 from line-level to mic-level sensitivity. Pushed all the way in, the sensitivity is set for line-level input signals, and when the white tab is closer to the front panel, the sensitivity is increased by 30 dB so it is suitable for mic-level signals.

(7) VOLUME

Controls the gain (level) of the Primary Input (5), Channel 1, of the powered speaker system. It is used to directly set the system output level for the Channel 1 input signal.

(8) SECONDARY INPUTS, CHANNEL 2 & 3

These consist of 1/4" unbalanced phone jacks for line-level signals, with medium input impedance.

(9) CONCENTRIC VOLUME, CHANNEL 2 & 3

Controls the gain (level) of Channel 2 & 3 inputs. Can be used in conjunction with the Channel 1 volume control (7) to mix three line-level signals together, or two line-level signals and one mic-level signal.
