6.3 XLR IN- AND OUTPUTS SECTION
L. OUTPUT DIRECT BAL. INPUT
) (0,0
The XLR In- and Outputs connections are high level, balanced input/ output
connections.
Most studio- and a number of stage mixer installations will use the XLR
connections to benefit from the balancing and the better drive capabilities
of the XLR connections.
Please check the tech.specs for in/out levels and impedances.
(01) XLR BALANCED INPUT
Feed the signal to be processed in through this socket.
Due to a lower input impedance and the higher input level capabilities, it is
not a good idea to an instrument input here. This Input is made for studio
levels and sourcing. If feeding from an unbalanced source, pin 3 should be
grounded.
(02) XLR BALANCED DIRECT OUTPUT
Output of direct (unprocessed) signal. May be used to feed another effects
unit in a chain. Note that this output is affected by the DIRECT and
TOTAL Output Volume Settings as well as by the TC 2290 effects,
processing the direct signal part.
If you want an output which is 'a buffered copy’ of the input signal, use the
ext. effects SEND 1 output. (unbalanced, and 6 dB lower than the XLR
input)
(03) XLR BALANCED LEFT OUTPUT
Output of processed signal. For stereo effects you have to connect RIGHT
output also. Note that on-stage the XLR outputs can be used for
‘inedriving’ signals to the mixing desk simultaneously with the jack outputs
feeding the stage amplifier(s). If unbalancing the XLR outputs pin 3 must
float as the output balancing is of a non-gnd lift type.
Also do not to feed the XLR outputs with a phantom power signal. Such a
phantom powering will do no harm, but the maximum output drive capability
will be limited approx. 6dB.
(04) XLR BALANCED RIGHT OUTPUT
Output of processed signal. For stereo effects you have to connect LEFT
output also. See XLR Left output.
Check the tech.specs for wiring of the XLR connections.
