Choose Inst when connecting a guitar or keyboard, or any high impedance (Hi-Z) instrument to the 1/4”
input (balanced TRS or unbalance TS). The signal is sent through a Hi-Z to Low-Z conversion circuit
before sent through the microphone preamplifier circuit.

Choose +4dBu when connecting to “pro” gear, such as en external mic pre, compressor, or EQ, with
outputs at a +4dBu nominal level.

level offsets that exists before inputs are grouped will be preserved after a group is chosen.
5. Insert In
(ch 1/2 only)
-
When this button is engaged, the signal to the Insert Return jack is routed to the A/D converter.
Note that the Insert Send is always active and thus may be used as an analog direct out.
6. Polarity
-
Use this button to invert the polarity of the input signal.
7. 48
-
Use this button to enable 48 volt phantom power on the corresponding Analog In channel.
Condenser mics require 48 volt phantom power to operate.
8. High Pass
-
Use this button to engage an 80Hz, 12db/octave high-pass filter on the input.
