RackPack: Preference Mic Pre
9
XLR Sockets
Connect your microphone to the electronically balanced XLR input. The
outputs of the Preference Mic Pre are electronically balanced, too. You
can use both XLR output sockets simultaneously.
XLR pin wiring:
Pin 1 = ground
Pin 2 = hot (+)
Pin 3 = cold (-)
The illustration shows the correct pin
wiring of the balanced XLR sockets if
an unbalanced wiring is required.
Channel Split
Since the Preference Mic Pre provides two independent outputs, it
always offers you two routes for one input channel.
If, for example, a RackPack is configured as a channel strip, one pre-
amp output can feed the next module while the second output is used
to record the direct preamp signal.
Another exemplary studio application is to send one signal directly
into the A/D converter to be recorded in your DAW while the second
signal is used for latency-free monitoring (e.g. cue mix for the singer).
In live applications Output 1 can be routed to Front Of House (FOH)
while Output 2 feeds the monitoring mixer.
