L/R and mono connectors- rear panel

The HPW Mono output connections are located on the Master rear output panel. The output features a male XLR output connector, along with a 1/4” TRS Insert con- nector. The output is a servo balanced XLR jack.

The TRS Insert jack is wired as Tip=Send, Ring=Return, Sleeve= Audio Ground.This is the “industry-standard” wiring scheme for most single-jack inserts.The Insert send- point is located directly after the main mix amp. The Insert return feeds the top of the 100mm fader.

66main Mono output - male XLR jack

The main output signal is available at this output jack. Pin2 is +Drive, Pin3 is -Drive, Pin1 is Chassis Ground

Drive impedance is (50Ω each leg) Nominal Operating Level= +4dBu

Max Output Level= +26dBu (into 2kΩ or higher)

67insert jack 1/4"TRS jack

This switching 1/4” TRS jack allows an external signal processor to be inserted into the signal path of the main audio bus. The tip carries the SEND signal from the bus, and the ring carries the RETURN signal back to the aux. The Insert-Send point is located directly after the main mix amp. The Return comes back at the top of the main level control.

Tip is Send, Ring is Return, Sleeve is Audio Ground. Send (output) impedance is 50Ω

Return (input) impedance is 5KΩ Nominal Operating Level= -2dBu

NOTE: To avoid any degradation of the HPW’s signal path, any processing gear patched into the insert jack should have a low impedance output (<100Ω) and must be capable of cleanly driving a 2KΩ load to +21dBu.
