MINICOM COM800
DEUTSCH
5.1.2 The MINICOM as a mix-signal compressor connected in series
If your mixing console has no insert connectors, you can also connect the MINICOM to the outputs
of an audio card or the main-mix outputs of a mixing console. In this configuration the outputs of the
mixing console/audio card are connected to the inputs of the MINICOM. Then, connect the outputs
of the COM800 directly to the recording device or the inputs of the audio card. The following illustration
shows the corresponding wiring scheme.
Fig. 5.3: Wiring example: the MINICOM as a main-mix compressor connected in series
Use standard cables with two 1/4" connectors, sometimes also referred to as patch cords or instrument
cables.
Fig. 5.4: Unbalanced cable with 1/4" TS connectors
If your equipment has balanced outputs, you can also use balanced cables to connect the inputs of
the COM800. Balanced cables are immune to interference, such as hum caused by power cords.
If you want to operate your MINICOM in mono only, connect one cable each to the left input and
output jacks. Select a suitable mono preset.
