Connecting a Balanced Audio Source

You can connect a balanced audio source to the AV controller’s BALANCE L/R XLR jacks by using two XLR audio cables. To use the balanced input, you must assign it to an input selector (see page 51). If you connect a mono source, use the BALANCE L XLR jack and set the Balance Input setting to Mono (see page 51). The AV controller’s balanced INPUT XLR jacks are wired as shown.
