4.1.4 PHANTOM POWER 18V TO CH. 2 XLR IN SOCKET & ON/OFF
MIC SWITCHING
3 Way Switch ON Top Panel offers XLR OFF (to minimise noise)
Mid position offers XLR/Mic Input ON.
Top position delivers 18v Phantom to XLR In.
18v Phantom Power to XLR will operate most Condenser Mics at
above minimum voltage requirements. To date only SE Mics have
been identified as NOT operating.
If powering Condenser Mics or other devices from EDB-2 note low
battery LED.
Powering Constraints: It is NOT possible to power the EDB-2 via
Phantom Power from a Mixer. However, applying Phantom from a
Mixer to EDB-2 will NOT damage it.
4.1.5 GAIN CONTROL 0-10
See 3.1.6 for A & B methods for best combined use of Gain + Master.
5 MUTE/LIVE SWITCH
Mute position with Red LED illuminated indicates that Output is OFF.
Useful to allow silent tuning in front of audience or to switch off during
periods of inactivity without re-setting controls. Mute also offers quieter
plugging in to inputs.
6 NOTCH FILTER CONTROLS
Sometimes known as a “Sweep” the Notch Filter utilises the two knobs
and a Sliding On/Off Switch and a pop up/down channel selector. It
applies either to Channels 1 or 2 and applies to Line out and DI out
sockets. Control markers are a rough guide only.
6.1 NOTCH-Q CONTROL: Sharp to Broad Width.
Sets the bandwidth or spread of notch cut for the filter around the
frequency setting of the NOTCH Control. Turning ACW to "Sharp"
reduces width of cut towards minimum width while turning CW up to
“Broad” increases width of notch cut towards maximum.
