Getting started
Connecting the power cable
Making sure that the mains power at the power outlet is off, connect the mains cable supplied with your Square ONE Splitter to the mains power outlet and then to the mains socket at the rear of your unit.
Connecting the audio cables
Making sure that all equipment is switched off, connect your Square ONE Splitter to the rest of your audio equipment as shown in the following subsections.
The mic preamp gain may be adjusted using the GAIN control knob, the gain range being adequate to accommodate most mics, keyboards, DI boxes, backline preamp outputs and active guitar/basses. However, passive guitars require a high impedance load and should be connected via a suitable active DI box, such as the Klark Teknik DN100.
