using the rca jacks

The Duplex features RCa InPUT and THRU jacks for 

each  channel  allowing  you  to  patch  in  to  a  personal 

monitor  system.  You  can  also  use  the  Mono  sUM 

switch to connect one or two stereo devices in either 

mono or stereo depending on how you choose to patch 

it.  as  described  earlier,  the  balanced  XLR  outputs 

connect  to  the  Pa  or  recording  system  (not  shown  in 

the diagrams).

basic stereo connection

When connecting a stereo device like a DJ mixer to the 

Duplex, the Mono sUM and XLR sEL switches should 

be  set  to  their  outward  positions.  Use  good  quality 

cables to connect to the channel-1 and channel-2 RCa 

In jacks. The RCa THRU jack can be used to pass the 

stereo signal on to another audio system.

Dual stereo devices

You  can  retain  full  stereo  operation  with  two  devices 

by  connecting  the  left  and  right  outputs  as  shown  and 

pushing the Mono sUM switch inward on both channels. 

Connected this way, the left signals from both devices are 

summed to one Duplex channel and the right signals are 

summed to the other. You can adjust the relative levels 

using the device's volume controls. You can even connect 

a personal monitor to the ¼" THRU jacks.
