1Mic/Inst ch1-4 on combo XLR/Jack

Combo XLR/jack inputs. Both XLR and 1/4 inch jack can be used with this connector type.

The XLR connection (balanced)

Connect a microphone and you connect directly to the input of the IMPACT ™ mic preamps.

-For condenser microphones phantom power must always be activated. (see also #10 on the following page). It is generally no problem to use dynamic microphones in combination with phantom power.

-The Input LEDs on meters 1-4 indicate the level of the input signal. If the red O dB LED (overload) is lit, your signal is too “hot” and you should reduce the input gain using the GAIN TRIM potentiometer and/or the the PAD/-20 dB switch for that channel.

The 1/4 jack connection

reamp

OFF -20dB

PAD

The 1/4 “jack part” of the connector is a high quality unbalanced Hi-Z circuit that is designed especially for direct connection of a passive guitar pick-up system (e.g. Strat-type) directly. If you want to connect balanced equipment using TRS jacks you should connect via the line inputs on the rear panel.

2Pad selector

The PAD selector can attenuate the input sensitivity by 20 dB. If you cannot attenuate the signal sufficiently using the GAIN/TRIM knob you should use the -20 dB position. This is typical when connecting line-level instruments.

3Gain/Trim

Use this control to set the appropriate input level. (see previous paragraph).

4Phones 1/Phones 2

Individual level control for phones output 1 and 2.

5Headphones connection

Two set of headphones may be connected for monitoring. Each headphones output has its own level control. It is also possible to set up an individual mix for each headphones output via aux 1 on the mixer page. Please refer to the description of the mixer page.

Warning!

Excessive sound pressure from earphones and headphones can cause hearing loss.
