Master volume (2) controls the level of the main power amplifier.
NOTE: The MaxTower can be set to very high sound levels. To protect
the system from damage, included is an active protection circuit. At high
sound levels this active protection will lower the output until the volume is
adjusted.
CONTROLS AND CONNECTIONS
• The front panel has 2x combo XLR-¼ (8) input jacks for the following
inputs: ¼” instrument level, ¼” line level, XLR dynamic microphone, XLR
condenser microphone, & XLR line level
10dB attenuation pad button (7) next to each input jack to best
match the level of each input source.
Phantom power button (9) switches on and off 48VDC phantom
power to both channels simultaneously for using a condenser microphone
with an XLR plug. NOTE: Sending 48VDC phantom power to the XLR plug
of a dynamic microphone will not typically harm the microphone. However
to avoid possible damage, we recommend that you verify this for any
specific dynamic microphone prior to using phantom power.
Gain adjustment knob (6) adjusts the input sensitivity. NOTE: The
gain knob can be used to avoid distortion and feedback with high level
signals. It is best to begin with the gain lower to avoid damaging the
power amplifier section.
Reverb knob (5) is used to control the level of reverb for each channel.
EQ knob (4) adjusts the low & high frequencies. Top center (detent
position) enables flat operation (no EQ effect). Turning the knob to the
right increases the level of treble and reduces the bass level. Turning the
knob to the left increases the bass level and reduces the treble.
Mute button (3) mutes both channels. A small red LED is on when the
mute is active. The mute button shuts off the signal to both the internal
power amplifier and to the rear line output, so that inputs can be swapped
or instrument or mic adjustments can be made without unwanted noise.
