CHANNEL SECTION:

CHANNELS 1-4

1.MIC INPUT: XLR balanced, low-impedance channel input optimized for a

microphone or other low-level source. Pin 2 is the positive input. Because of the wide range of gain adjustment, signal levels as high as +10 dBV (2.45 V RMS) can be accommodated. When the phantom power is enabled, this connector has +48 V on pins 2 and 3 with pin 1 as the ground reference. (The Mic Input can also be found on channels 5 and 6.)

2.HI-Z/LINE INPUT: 1/4" balanced TRS high-impedance input. The tip is the positive input, which can also be used for unbalanced inputs. A Pad (#3) switch is provided to attenuate strong signals present at this input. Within the same channel, the mic input and the Hi-Z/Line input cannot be used simultaneously.

3.PAD: Attenuates the input signal by 25 dB. If you find that barely touching the Level control (#4) gives you an enormous increase in volume or if distortion occurs, try using the Pad switch. In addition to increasing the dynamic range, the channel input can now accommodate a higher input level before clipping. This may be necessary with a close mic on loud guitar amplifiers or drum kits.

4.LEVEL: Sets the signal level sent to the Main bus. (The level control can also be found on channels 5 through 7.)

5.MON: Adjusts the level of the channel signal (pre-EQ) that is added to the Monitor mix. (The Monitor control can also be found on channels 5 through 7.) This control is independent of the main channel level control (#4).

6.LOW EQ: A shelving type of active tone control that varies the bass frequency levels ±15 dB at 70 Hz. It will add depth to thin signals, or clean up muddy ones. (The low control can also be found on channels 5 through 7.)

7.MID EQ: Mid ±15 dB. This control sets the amount of cut and boost at the mid-frequency (850 Hz). (The mid control can also be found on channels

5through 6.)

8.HIGH EQ: A shelving type of active tone control that varies the treble frequency levels ±15 dB at 12 kHz. It is designed to remove noise or to add brilliance to the signal, depending on the quality of the source. (The high control can also be found on channels 5 through 7.)

9.EFX: This control varies the level into the digital effects processor bus adjusting the signal level from the particular channel to the digital processor. (The effects control can also be found on channels 5 and 6.) The channel level control (#4) also affects this level.

NOTE: Channels 5-7 contain features that differ from the previous channels. Only those features are mentioned below. For information on features not mentioned please refer to the section for Channels 1-4.
