Main featuresParts and their functionScreens and operations
MST/MON
The audio output of the MASTER L,R, MONITOR L,R, and mixer channels 5, 6, 7, and 8 will be
sent from the OUTPUT jacks.
INDIVIDUAL
The audio output of mixer channels 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 will be sent from the OUTPUT jacks.
17 PHONES jacks and level knobs
You can connect two sets of headphones here and use the respective knob to adjust the volume
level. These are 1/4" stereo phone jacks that carry the same audio as the
MONITOR
jacks.
18 PHANTOM button
The XLR jacks for
INPUT 1–8
provide a +48V phantom power supply for use with condenser
mics. Pressing this button will toggle between the phantom power being on (button lit) or off (but-
ton dark). Always observe caution when using phantom power. In certain cases, you can mix con-
denser microphones and balanced dynamic microphones (usually those with a detachable cable
and an XLR connector) when using phantom power. Unbalanced dynamic microphones must
never be connected to the XLR inputs when phantom power is on. In most case, unbalanced
dynamic microphones are connected to the 1/4” inputs, avoiding this issue.
Phantom power will not be supplied to INPUT jacks to which a TRS phone plug is connected.
If a condenser mic is connected or disconnected while the PHANTOM button is on, damage to your equipment
may occur. For this reason, always turn the phantom power switch off before connecting or disconnecting a con-
denser mic.
If the PHANTOM button is on, you must never connect any device other than a condenser mic. Doing so may
damage your equipment.
