MIC/LINE (CH 1-4)
The MIC/LINE inputs are for connecting microphones, instruments, or line-level output signals. Once the devices are connected, the signals can be customized using the individual channel strips, and further controlled using the DSP, EQ and main system controls. For each of the channels 1-4, it is important to note that if you connect a device to BOTH the ¼” and XLR jacks simultaneously, turning one of them off will turn them both off. This is due to how the jacks are wired internally.
9.¼” MIC/LINE INPUT – These jacks are for connecting devices with microphone/line-level signals. Both balanced or unbalanced ¼” cables are suitable for connecting to these jacks. If you are connecting a microphone that requires phantom power to these jacks, remember that you need
a balanced cable, and that you need to set the +48V phantom power switch to ON. When connecting to these jacks, remember to ensure that the MIC PAD and SOURCE SELECT switches are set correctly. Refer to above text for details on them.
10.XLR INPUT – These XLR jacks are for connecting devices with balanced microphone/line-level signals. Use balanced XLR cables for connecting to these jacks. If you are connecting a microphone that requires phantom power to these jacks, remember to set phantom power switch to ON. When connecting to these jacks, remember to ensure that the MIC PAD and SOURCE SELECT switches are set correctly. Refer to above text for details on them.
1/8”, RCA, 1/4” STEREO (CH 5-8)
These input jacks are for connecting devices with stereo output. The 1/8” jack is labeled MP3/LAPTOP but can be used to connect any line-level device with an 1/8” plug. L/R RCA jacks provide connectivity for devices that utilize line- level RCA output. The ¼” jacks can be connected in both a stereo (in tandem) and mono (separate) confi guration. Note
that devices can be connected to all three sets of jacks per channel simultaneously, however, there is no way to individually mix the audio levels from each device. Effects can be applied to the stereo channels using the ¼” INSERT jacks
(ST CH EFFECT LOOP).
11.MP3/LAPTOP – These 1/8” jacks are for connecting source audio devices. The signal can be either mono or stereo. If connecting a mono signal, use a 1/8” TS cable. If connecting a stereo signal, use an 1/8” TRS cable. Devices that have line-level outputs other than 1/8” can be connected to these jacks using an appropriate adapter/ cable.
12.RCA L/R – These jacks are for connecting source audio devices with line-level, unbalanced output, such as CD+G player, iPod docks, tape decks etc. Devices that have line-level outputs other than L/R RCA can be connected to these jacks using an appropriate adapter/cable. Note that you cannot directly connect phono-level outputs from a turntable; a phono pre-amp is required.
13.¼” L(MONO)/RIGHT – These ¼” jacks are for connecting source audio devices with ¼” line-level output. Use ¼” TS cables to make the connections. If you are connecting stereo output, connect the L channel to the L(MONO) jack, and connect the right channel to the RIGHT jack. If you are connecting a single mono signal and only require one connection, connect to the L(MONO) jack. Connecting a single mono line to only the RIGHT jack will result in no sound.
