For dynamic microphone connection, use the XLR connector or a standard 1/4" phone plug connector. For a condenser
microphone, use the XLR connector.

Adjust the [MIC GAIN] knob so that the input level meter on the display lights in green or
yellow. Make sure that the meter does not light in orange or red, since this indicates that the
input level is too high.

instrument sound on the Mixer display (page90).
The combo jack accepts either XLR or
1/4" phone plug connectors.
