POD:
Phantom Power Oil/Off (39)
This switch selects +48V DC phantom power for all channels. In the “Off' position no phantom powering
is available on any channels.
INPUTS:
XLR Inputs #1-6 (40)
Used to connect low impedance mics or other balanced signals to the channel module. The connector is an
industry standard, 3-pin. XLR female. Pin 1 is signal ground, pin 2 is in phase ( +), and pin 3 is phase revers¬
ed (-).
LINE Inputs #1-16 (41)
Used to connect line level signals. The connector is a stereo (RTS) '4 " phono connector on channels 1 to
6. Tip is signal, Ring is differential ground, and Sleeve is signal ground. The line input will accept mono
or stereo 14" plugs. When a stereo plug is used, the Ring should be connected to the signal return of the
external device if it has a balanced output, or to the signal ground of the external device if it has an unbalanc¬
ed output. In either case, noise (hum) due to grounds can be reduced by using the stereo connection. The
connector is a mono (TS) 14 " phone connector on channels 7-16. Tip is signal and Sleeve is signal ground.
PATCH R & L (42)
Used to insert signal processing devices in the Left and Right signal paths. This is a 14 " RTS connector.
Tip is output, Ring is return, and Sleeve is signal ground.
“TWEAK” NOTE: The signal derived at this patch point is phase reversed from all other signals found
throughout this mixer. When PATCH R Sc L is used (as intended) as an insert point, this will cause no problems.
PATCH 1-8 (43)
Used to insert signal processors into the channel 1 to 8 signal paths. This is a 14 " Ring-Tip-Sleeve connector.
Tip is output. Ring is return, and Sleeve is signal ground.
This is a post fader patch point and may be used in three ways:
1 . As a channel insert point where Tip is output, Ring is return and sleeve is signal ground.
2. As a direct channel output for recording etc. Plug in a *4 " Tip-Sleeve jack. This will disconnect
the channel from all internal mixes with the exception of Monitor, making the channel fader, pan,
solo and all AUXcs inactive.
3. As a direct channel output for recording, etc., without disconnecting the internal mixes. A quick
method of achieving this is to plug a '4 " Tip-Sleeve jack until the “first” click is felt. This may
not always work with all '4" plugs owing to variations in international plug design. Using a *4 "
Tip-Ring-Sleeve jack with Tip and Ring connected (hard-wired) to each other is highly recommend¬
ed as a more professional and reliable method.
