XLRs

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The left and right main outputs are on 3-pole male XLR connectors, wired as shown

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

on the left. They are balanced outputs, allowing long cable runs to balanced amplifiers

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

or other equipment. If the amplifier (or other equipment) which you are using has an

unbalanced input, you should wire the output from the D-MIX500 as shown in the

 

 

 

 

 

’Balanced To Unbalanced’ diagram below.
