1:Tape/CD inputs (L, R) - Use this set of dual RCA jacks to connect the outputs of a tape or CD player to the MIXPAD 4. Signal connected here appears at the stereo channel (channels 3 and 4) and is mixed at unity gain with any line input signal connected to channel 3/4.

2:Phantom Power switches (Ch 1, Ch 2) - When pressed in, 18 volts of phantom power is delivered to pins 2 and 3 of the XLR mic connector of the selected channel. WARNING: Only use this switch with the MIXPAD 4 powered down. Before turning phantom power on, be sure to disconnect all non-microphone signal sources (such as passive direct injection boxes) from the XLR mic jacks. Although phantom power will have no adverse affect on connected dynamic microphones, it should be used only when one or more condenser microphones are connected to the MIXPAD 4. Refer to the owners manual of your microphone or active direct injection (DI) box to determine whether or not it requires 18 volts of phantom power—Samson cannot assume responsibility if you damage a mic or DI box by incorrectly applying phantom power from the MIXPAD 4. If you’re not completely certain that one or more connected mics or active DI boxes require 18 volts phantom power, leave this switch off (its out position).
