FRONT PANEL CONTROLS

GAIN CONTROL Each gain control has 11 positions and adjusts the voltage gain from 10dB to 60dB in 5dB steps.

TRIM CONTROL The trim control provides 10dB of continuously variable output attenuation. In the fully clockwise position the trim is at unity (no attenuation). In the fully counter-clockwise position the trim is at -10dB. For reference, the 3 o’clock position is -4dB and the 12 o’clock position is -8dB. The trim control should be left in the fully clockwise position during normal recording.

PHANTOM POWER This switch provides 48 volts to power condenser microphones. The phantom power switch (labeled +48) connects the +48V power supply to pins 2 and 3 on the XLR input connector. Alternatively, the V2 can be configured to provide 12V Parallel power. Please contact the factory for information on this option.

PEAK INDICATOR The LED peak indicator, which monitors the signal between the input and output amplifiers, illuminates the green LED at -14dBu and illuminates the red LED at +16dB (10dB before clipping).

HIGH PASS FILTER (labeled HPF) Sometimes referred to as a bass roll-off, the HPF uses a three position toggle switch to select two different low cut corner frequencies and an OFF position. Position 1 is the higher cutoff frequency and Position 2 is the lower cutoff frequency. Internal jumpers allow for selection of either 6dB/octave or 12dB/octave slope. The cutoff two frequencies can be set at 50Hz/100Hz or 75Hz/125Hz. Selecting HPF switch position 1 sets the roll-off to the higher frequency while switch position 2 sets the roll-off to the lower frequency. The 12dB/octave filter employs a transitional Thompson- Butterworth response for the best combination of passband flatness and time domain response. See section II for detailed jumper setting information.

POWER SWITCH The power switch connects power from the DC input connector to the preamplifier circuitry. If the preamplifier is connected to a charged battery or other DC power supply the POWER LED will illuminate.

POWER LED Indicates that the V2 is turned on and connected to an adequate power source. NOTE: The 6 Volt V2 automatically turns off if the battery or power source voltage drops below 5.5V. The 12 Volt V2 automatically turns off if the battery or power source voltage drops below 11.0V.

LOW BATT For the 6 Volt V2 the low battery indicator flashes if the battery voltage drops below 5.75V. For the 12 Volt V2 the low battery indicator flashes if the battery drops below 11.5V.
