MONO Section
1MONO INSERT Jack
This is an input/output jack located before the MONO
fader.
You can connect a graphic equalizer or other signal pro-
cessor. This is a TRS (tip, ring, sleeve) phone jack that
carries both the send and return signal (tip = send/out;
ring = return/in; sleeve = ground).
NOTE
· Patching external devices via an INSERT jack requires a
special insert cable such as illustrated below (insert
cable sold separately).
2MONO OUT Jack
This is an XLR-3-32 type balanced output jack that out-
puts the MONO OUT signal.
3ON Switch/Indicator
When this switch is on, the MONO OUT will be enabled
and the indicator will light.
4MONO Level Meter
Three LEDs indicate the signal level after the MONO
fader. The “-20” LED will light if the output signal level
reaches -20 dB, and the “0” LED will light at nominal
level. The PEAK LED will light red when the MONO OUT
signal reaches 3 dB before clipping.
5AFL Switch/Indicator
When the AFL switch is on, the indicator will light and
the signal after the MONO fader is output to the MONI-
TOR OUT and PHONES jacks for monitoring.
NOTE
· If you want to monitor the signal after the MONO fader,
turn off all PFL switches.
6MONO Fader
Controls the level of the signal output to the MONO jack.
LAMP Connector
This is an XLR-4-31 type connector that supplies power to a
separately sold gooseneck lamp (e.g., Yamaha LA5000).
The IM8-40 mixer has three of these connectors, and the
IM8-32/24 mixers have two.

Impedance balanced:

Since the hot and cold terminals of impedance balanced
output jacks have the same output impedance, these out-
put jacks are less affected by induced noise.
