Jack Sockets

All of the jack socket outputs are impedance balanced. They are on 3-pole a gauge jack sockets, wired as shown on the left and below,. They accept 3-pole 1/4" "A" gauge (TRS) jacks, or 2-pole mono jacks.

The jack socket outputs are as follows:

FX Insert Send, Main Output Insert Send Left, Main Output Insert Send Right, Stereo 2 Left, Stereo 2 Right, Mono1, Mono2, Booth Left, Booth Right and Sound-to-Light.
