    Balanced outputs. The output is via a balanced, 3 pin male xlr connector. The mating connector should be wired as follows: - pin 1 = ground (screen), - pin 2 = signal phase (“+” or “hot”), - pin 3 = signal non-phase (“-” or “cold”). Unbalanced outputs. An unbalanced line output is provided for each ...

    Operation. Front panel. The front panel controls are identified in fig.2. Input gain. The input gain of the equaliser may be varied over a range of +/-20db, which combined with the different sensitivity inputs, provides adequate and precise control of signal level. Generally, enough gain should be a...
