Connections

The MIKEMAN is equipped with two electronically balanced, female 3-pole XLR sockets to connect two microphones or a line signals. The outputs of the MIKEMAN are designed balanced on male XLR sockets as well as unbalanced on 1/4“ jacks.The outputs can be used parallel to each other. This means that two output signals can be produced from one input signal.

The following diagram shows how to unbalance balanced wiring correctly:

Condenser microphones with 48 V phantom power can not be used unbalanced.

Both output stages operate in parallel, so it is possible to connect two different destination units simultaneously, for example to record to two different media at the same time or split the output between a mixer and effects processor.
