Features 

Front Panel 

1.

Signal/Overload LED:

 This LED illuminates green when a signal of at least -30 dBu is 

received, and turns red when the signal is within 3 dB of clipping. If the Overload LED 
illuminates, turn down the input signal to prevent the signal from distorting.    

2.

Mono Input Level: 

Adjust this knob to control the level of each mono channel.  

3.

Assign Switches: 

Adjust these switches to route the signal for each Mic/Line input to the A, 

A+B, or B

outputs.  

4.

Stereo Line Input Level: 

Adjust this knob to control the amount of the stereo input signal routed 

to the outputs. 

5.

Mono Switch: 

Adjust this switch to control the

mix for the A and B sides of each stereo line 

input together. When active, the associated LED lights and the A and B inputs for that channel 
will have the same level. 

6.

Output Overload LED: 

This

LED

illuminates when within 3 dB of clipping. To avoid this, the 

output level control can be decreased, or the individual input level can be lowered. 

7.

A and B Output Level Controls: 

Adjust these knobs to

set the output level for the A and B 

outputs. 

8.

Power LED: 

This LED

is lit whenever adequate power is applied to the unit.  

Rear Panel 

1.

Mic/Line Inputs 1-4: 

Connect microphones or line-level devices to

these balanced XLR inputs. 

2.

Phantom Power Switch: 

Adjust this switch to

apply 15V phantom power to any of the inputs  

1-4 that are set for mic-level.   

3.

Line Input Selectors: 

Adjust this to

switch the sensitivity and input impedance for either mic or 

line-level input. If Line is chosen, phantom power is deactivated for that input. 

4.

1/4" Line Inputs: 

These stereo pairs of balanced inputs accommodate stereo line-level signals. 

These TRS (Tip-Ring-Sleeve) 1/4” jacks handle either balanced or unbalanced signals. In most 
cases, an unbalanced signal may use a mono 1/4" plug (Tip-Sleeve).  

5.

A and B Outputs: 

These balanced XLR’s provide the A and B mixed output. The internal output 

level switches allow setting the output level for mic or line-level.  

6.

Power Connector: 

Connect the included power cable here.
