Legacy AXS API
• Unbalanced
• Blue illumination
-20 PAD: Inserts a -20dB pad at the instrument input
100K LOAD: Engages a 100K Ohm input load
• Changes the tone of the pickup and tends to darken the high frequency content.
GAIN: Sets the preamplifier gain from -40 to +20dB
TONE: Adjusts the tonal characteristics of inputs signal
• Adjusting the TONE control between “Thin” and “Fat” control can reduce “muddiness”
THIN: -12dB at 150Hz
FAT: Flat (+/- 0dB)
BRT (Bright): Activates a +6dB at 8kHz presence boost.
• The combination of the TONE and BRT functions may eliminate the need for any EQ on the
instrument when recording, keeping the signal pure.
METER: The 5-segment LED meter indicates the 205 output level in dBu
• Capable of boosting any instrument to a hefty line level without additional amplifiers.
Channel Input Patch Points
Depending on console configuration, there will be input patch points for 32, 48, 64, or 80 channels in
the bay. In the interest of space, patch points for only 8 channels are shown below.
MIC TIE-LINE: Studio microphone outputs
• Full-normal to MIC PREAMP INPUT
• Breaking output: Inserted patch cord will replace studio tie-
line connection
MIC PREAMP INPUT: 212 Mic Preamp inputs
• Balanced, low-impedance, mic-level input
• Full-normal from MIC TIE-LINE patch points
• Breaking input: Inserted patch cord will replace normalled
connection
• Not used with 205 Direct Input Module
CAUTION: The MIC PREAMP INPUT patch point will carry 48-Volt phantom power when the 48V
button is engaged on the associated 212 Mic Preamp. Care should be used and 48V
should be always be disengaged before patching to these points.
MULTITRACK OUTPUT: Multitrack recorder returns
• Half-normal to LINE INPUT
• Outputs split if patched
LINE INPUT: Main line-level inputs
• Balanced, low-impedance, line-level input
• Half-normal from MULTITRACK OUTPUT
• Breaking input: Inserted patch cord will replace normalled
connection
• ALT LINE INPUT: Secondary line-level inputs
• Balanced, low-impedance, line-level input
• Alternate input to the Small Fader path
• Half-normal from owner specified source (optional)
• Breaking input: Inserted patch cord will replace normalled
connection
